Measurement of the 171Tm beta spectrum

Lesya Shchutska, Maarten Willibrord Uriël Van Dijk, Alexey Boyarsky

The beta spectrum of the main transition of the 171Tm was measured using a double focalizing spectrometer. The instrument was lately improved in order to reduce its low energy threshold to 34 keV. We used the spectrometer to measure the energy end-point of ...

OASE 108. Ups & Downs. Reception Histories in Architecture

Christophe van Gerrewey

What is good, less good, or bad architecture? This issue of OASE examines how shifting appreciations, for very diverse reasons, can function as a productive misunderstanding, and as a lever to advance architectural criticism and pry thinking about architec ...

Stabilization strategies in biomass depolymerization using chemical functionalization

Jeremy Luterbacher, Ydna Marie Questell-Santiago

A central feature of most lignocellulosic-biomass-valorization strategies is the depolymerization of all its three major constituents: cellulose and hemicellulose to simple sugars, and lignin to phenolic monomers. However, reactive intermediates, generally ...
