Leaf water becomes enriched in the heavy isotopes of oxygen and hydrogen during evapotranspiration. The magnitude of the enrichment has been shown to be influenced by temperature and humidity, but the ...

The physicochemical and biological properties of hydrogen-bonded systems are significantly affected by nuclear quantum effects including zero-point energies of vibrational modes, proton delocalization ...

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A, Mathematical and Physical Sciences, Vol. 286, No. 1406 (Jul. 20, 1965), pp. 285-299 (15 pages) The kinetic hydrogen isotope effect has been ...

Through the development of a procedure to measure when hydrogen bonds form under two-state folding conditions, α-helices have been determined to form proportionally to denaturant-sensitive surface ...

Hydrogen isotope separation and catalytic exchange processes represent a critical area of research in both energy and environmental science. These techniques focus on distinguishing isotopes of ...

The lightest of all elements, hydrogen, is in great demand due to its promising role as a sustainable resource in the energy transition. A team from Leipzig University and TU Dresden, as part of the ...

The above results were based on the previous studies on the hydrogen isotope permeation of wall materials and structural materials, and realized the quantitative analysis of the effect of helium ...

A viable nuclear fusion reactor will be operated with a magnetically confined hydrogen plasma as its fuel. The energy is gained by the fusing hydrogen isotopes deuterium (D) and tritium (T). These ...

Researchers have succeeded in developing a novel deuterium separation method, using a special class of metal organic frameworks (MOFs) whose pore dimensions change upon gas adsorption. A new study by ...

Deuterium is a stable isotope of hydrogen, which, unlike “normal” hydrogen atoms, or protium, also contains a neutron. The isotope deuterium has one proton, one neutron and one electron. One out of ...
