The small relativistic NME (sNME) plays a crucial role in the combined analysis of beta spectral shapes and partial half-lives (branching ratios) [31, 33, 35, 48]. In these studies, the sNME is used ...

Figure 1: Valence states of the triangular and tetrahedral elementary blocks. Note that the duet rule elucidated here is akin to the textbook octet rule, a well-known and the first chemical rule of ...

Using CdSe/ZnSe core-shell quantum dots (QDs) as a model, we systematically investigate the photochemical properties of QDs with the ZnSe shells under an ambient environment, which show almost ...

The chemical bond has just crossed a century. The ‘bond’ has been central to science, second only to atoms perhaps, both of which together make the physical world. In the past hundred years, the bond ...

The shell ultrastructure of the gastropod Cittarium pica (L.) (Recent; Bimini, Bahamas) has been studied by means of correlated light and scanning electron microscopy of growth surfaces, fracture ...
