The rule of four: anomalous distributions in the stoichiometries of inorganic compounds

Nicola Marzari, Marnik Bercx, Carl Simon Adorf, Elena Gazzarrini

Why are materials with specific characteristics more abundant than others? This is a fundamental question in materials science and one that is traditionally difficult to tackle, given the vastness of compositional and configurational space. We highlight he ...

BBN constraints on universally-coupled ultralight scalar dark matter

Sergey Sibiryakov

Ultralight scalar dark matter can interact with all massive Standard Model particles through a universal coupling. Such a coupling modifies the Standard Model particle masses and affects the dynamics of Big Bang Nucleosynthesis. We model the cosmological e ...

Lithium in red giant stars: Constraining non-standard mixing with large surveys in the Gaia era

Pierre North

Context. Li is extensively known to be a good tracer of non-standard mixing processes occurring in stellar interiors. Aims. We present the results of a new large Li survey in red giant stars and combine it with surveys from the literature to probe the impa ...

Flexible sweat sensors for non-invasive optimization of lithium dose in psychiatric disorders

Giovanni De Micheli, Sandro Carrara, Irene Taurino, Francesca Criscuolo

Lithium is the main mood stabilizer in bipolar disorders and other psychiatric conditions. However, lithium levels in blood must be monitored frequently during therapies because of its narrow therapeutic range. For this reason the patients, whose quality o ...

Chemical inhomogeneities amongst first population stars in globular clusters Evidence for He variations

Carmela Lardo

Spreads in light element abundances among stars (also known as multiple populations) are observed in nearly all globular clusters. One way to map such chemical variations using high-precision photometry is to employ a suitable combination of stellar magnit ...

Properties of helium bubbles in covalent systems at the nanoscale: A combined numerical and experimental study

Cécile Hébert, Duncan Thomas Lindsay Alexander

The properties of nanometric-sized helium bubbles in silicon have been investigated using both spatially resolved electron-energy-loss spectroscopy combined with a recently developed method, and molecular-dynamics simulations. The experiments allowed for a ...

Probing nuclear rates with Planck and BICEP2

Julien Lesgourgues

Big-bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) relates key cosmological parameters to the primordial abundance of light elements. In this paper, we point out that the recent observations of cosmic microwave background anisotropies by the Planck satellite and by the BICEP2 ...

Fluorescence Sensors for Lithium Ions and Small Peptides

Kay Severin, Sébastien Rochat

Simple but powerful chemosensors were developed by taking advantage of self-assembly processes. First, we will describe a turn-on fluorescent sensor for the pharmacologically important lithium ion. The sensor can be used in purely aqueous solution, and it ...

Hyperpolarized Lithium-6 as a Sensor of Nanomolar Contrast Agents

Rolf Gruetter, Cristina Ramona Cudalbu, Arnaud Comment, Sami Jannin, Ruud van Heeswijk, Jacques Van Der Klink, Chiara Perazzolo, Fiodar Kurdzesau

Lithium is widely used in psychotherapy. The Li-6 isotope has a long intrinsic longitudinal relaxation time T-1 on the order of minutes, making it an ideal candidate for hyperpolarization experiments. In the present study we demonstrated that lithium-6 can ...
