Unraveling materials Berry curvature and Chern numbers from real-time evolution of Bloch states
(Natlacad Sciences, 2019-03-05)
Materials can be classified by the topological character of their electronic structure and, in this perspective, global attributes immune to local deformations have been discussed in terms of Berry curvature and Chern ...
Correlation between Grafting Density and Confined Crystallization Behavior of Polyethylene Glycol Grafted to Silica
(American Chemical Society, 2019-02-06)
The interfacial interactions of polymer-nanoparticles have dramatical effects on the crystallization behavior of grafted polymers. In this study, methoxy polyethylene glycol (MPEG) (molecular weights 750, 2000 and 4000 g ...
Embedding Sustainable Development Goals in Education. Teachers’ Perspective about Education for Sustainability in the Basque Autonomous Community
(MDPI, 2019-03-01)
In the current context of unsustainability that we inhabit, education is considered to be a necessary pillar for social transformation towards sustainable development. The main goal of this research is to analyze the ...
Integrated Information in the Thermodynamic Limit
(International Neural Network Society, 2019-06)
The capacity to integrate information is a prominent feature of biological, neural, and cognitive processes. Integrated Information Theory (IIT) provides mathematical tools for quantifying the level of integration in a ...
Review—Innovative Polymeric Materials for Better RechargeableBatteries: Strategies from CIC Energigune
(The Electrochemical Society, 2019)
The need for sustainable energy sources and their efficient utilization has motivated extensive explorations of new electrolytes, electrodes, and alternative battery chemistries departing from current lithium-ion battery ...
Reprogramming of gene expression in Escherichia coli cultured on pyruvate versus glucose
(Springer, 2019-07-30)
Previous studies revealed important roles of small RNAs (sRNAs) in regulation of bacterial metabolism, stress responses and virulence. However, only a minor fraction of sRNAs is well characterized with respect to the spectra ...
Orbital magneto-optical response of periodic insulators from first principles
(Springer, 2019-03-06)
Magneto-optical response, i.e. optical response in the presence of a magnetic field, is commonly used for characterization of materials and in optical communications. However, quantum mechanical description of electric and ...
Adaptive Downregulation of Cl-/HCO3- Exchange Activity in Rat Hepatocytes under Experimental Obstructive Cholestasis
(Public Library Science, 2019-02-21)
In obstructive cholestasis, there is an integral adaptive response aimed to diminish the bile flow and minimize the injury of bile ducts caused by increased intraluminal pressure and harmful levels of bile salts and ...
Removal of Tetracycline Pollutants by Adsorption and Magnetic Separation Using Reduced Graphene Oxide Decorated with Alpha-Fe₂O₃ Nanoparticles
(MDPI, 2019-02-26)
Nanocomposites of reduced graphene oxide (RGO) with ferromagnetic alpha-Fe₂O₃ nanoparticles have been prepared in-situ by thermal treatment. The structure and morphology of the hybrid material were studied by X-ray ...
Measurements of Branching Fraction and Direct CP Asymmetry in B-+/- -> (KSKSK +/-)-K-0-K-0 and a Search for B-+/- -> (KSKS0)-K-0 pi(+/-)
(American Physical Society, 2019-02-20)
We study charmless hadronic decays of charged B mesons to the final states (KSKSK +/-)-K-0-K-0 and (KSKS0)-K-0 pi(+/-) using a 711 fb(-1) data sample that contains 772 x 10(6) B (B) over bar pairs and was collected at the ...
