Thuwal/Helsinki/Leipzig. Alkanes, an important component of fuels for combustion engines and an important class of urban trace gases, react via another reaction pathways than previously thought. These ...

From gas stoves to rocket ships, everyday conveniences and cutting-edge technologies depend on burning fuels. Underlying these processes is the complex science of combustion, which combines chemistry, ...

Fires in the wildland-urban interface (WUI) differ from wildland fires. Combustible materials in the WUI have different chemical compositions and densities, and are present in different quantities, ...

Some insects sting, some bite, and some spray acid bombs out of their nether regions. It’s a perfectly tactical defense, and highly effective for the bombardier beetle. From a predator’s perspective, ...

Surface Modification Research (Oxidation, Ion Implantation, Combustion Chemical Vapor Deposition, etc.) as J.M. Hampikian with T. Chen, D.W. Stollberg, A.E. Alexiou ...

When people think of what it means to be alive, they often focus on genomes—which encode biological information and enable its transmission and evolution. By themselves, however, genomes aren’t enough ...
