Approximate analytical solutions for the overall adsorption functions based on the Fowler-Guggenheim local isotherm with a patchwise topology of adsorption centres location and four different adsorption heat distribution functions have been obtained. The Gaussian, constant, linear (as a particular case of power distribution), and exponential distri...

The emergence of Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has imposed a greater challenge for the world. Coronavirus has infected over 38.3 million people and caused millions of deaths worldwide. The COVID-19 outbreak has accentuated the need for additional efforts to develop broad-spectrum therapeutics to combat SARS-CoV-2 infe...

For the CH3SH + OH atmospheric reaction, we study the mechanism, potential energy surface, thermodynamic parameters of all stationary points, and rate of generation of the main product channels at high, low, and intermediate pressures. In this study, the UMP2, UM062X, UB3LYP, and CCSD(T) methods by Dunning and Pople basis sets are used and the resu...

The abnormally low concentration of xenon compared to other noble gases in Earth’s atmosphere remains debated, as the identification of mantle minerals that can capture and stabilize xenon is challenging. Here, the authors propose that xenon iron oxides could be potential Xe hosts in Earth’s lower mantle.

Apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) sites are the most common DNA lesions, which benefit from a most efficient repair by the base excision pathway. The impact of losing a nucleobase on the conformation and dynamics of B-DNA is well characterized. Yet AP sites seem to present an entirely different chemistry in nucleosomal DNA, with lifetimes reduced up to 10...

Direct numerical simulation (DNS) of particle hydrodynamics in the multiphase industrial process enables us to fully learn the process and optimize it on the industrial scale. However, using high-resolution computational calculations for particle movement and the interaction between the solid phase and other phases in fine timestep is limited to ex...
