Reazione catalitica e fotocatalitica di disidratazione in fase gas-solido del 2-propanolo in presenza di eteropoliacidi "Keggin" e "Wells-Dawson" sup…

2015

La disidratazione catalitica e fotocatalitica di 2-propanol a propilene è stata effettuata usando eteropoliacidi di Keggin H3PW12O40 (PW12) e Wells-Dawson H6P2W18O60 (P2W18). Sono stati utilizzati sia supportani che non. Materiali binari sono stati preparati per l'impregnazione degli eteropoliacidi su supporti commerciali: SiO2 (Aldrich) e TiO2 (Evonik P25). I materiali sono stati caratterizzati e la loro (foto) attività catalitica rispetto alla disidratazione 2-propanol evaluata in regime gas-solido utilizzando un reattore continuo a pressione atmosferica e un range di temperatura fra 60 e 120 ° C. Inoltre, per gli esperimenti fotoassititi il reattore è stato illuminato da un LED UV. Impor…

Brownian motion in trapping enclosures: Steep potential wells, bistable wells and false bistability of induced Feynman-Kac (well) potentials

2019

We investigate signatures of convergence for a sequence of diffusion processes on a line, in conservative force fields stemming from superharmonic potentials $U(x)\sim x^m$, $m=2n \geq 2$. This is paralleled by a transformation of each $m$-th diffusion generator $L = D\Delta + b(x)\nabla $, and likewise the related Fokker-Planck operator $L^*= D\Delta - \nabla [b(x)\, \cdot]$, into the affiliated Schr\"{o}dinger one $\hat{H}= - D\Delta + {\cal{V}}(x)$. Upon a proper adjustment of operator domains, the dynamics is set by semigroups $\exp(tL)$, $\exp(tL_*)$ and $\exp(-t\hat{H})$, with $t \geq 0$. The Feynman-Kac integral kernel of $\exp(-t\hat{H})$ is the major building block of the relaxatio…

Crystalline-Size Dependence of Dual Emission Peak on Hybrid Organic Lead-Iodide Perovskite Films at Low Temperatures

2018

In this work, we have investigated the crystalline-size dependence of optical absorption and photoluminescence emission of CH3NH3PbI3 films, which is necessary to identify the potential practical applications of the gadgets based on perovskite films. This study was carried out at low temperatures to minimize the extra complexity induced by thermal effects. The purpose was to clarify the origin of the dual emission peak previously reported in the literature. We found that the grain size is responsible for the appearance or disappearance of this dual emission on CH3NH3PbI3 at low temperatures, whereas we have inferred that the thickness of the perovskite layer is a much more important factor …

Local Structure of Supported Keggin and Wells-Dawson Heteropolyacids and Its Influence on the Catalytic Activity

2019

[EN] Keggin [PW12O40]3– and Wells–Dawson [P2W18O62]6– heteropolyanions are nanosized transition-metal-oxygen clusters belonging to the heteropolyacids (HPAs) family. They are widely used as catalysts due to their high Brønsted acidity, and their dispersion on solid supports favors the accessibility to their acid sites generally increasing the catalytic activity. A series of binary materials composed of Keggin or Wells–Dawson HPAs and SiO2, TiO2, and ZrO2 have been prepared by impregnation or solvothermal methods. Remarkable differences have been found in the catalytic activities among the unsupported and supported HPAs. These differences have been correlated in the past to the structural ch…

The suffragette movement in H.G. Wells's "Ann Veronica" and May Sinclair's "The Tree of Heaven"

2016

In H.G. Wells’s Ann Yeronica (1909), the eponymous heroine embraces new womanhood and a rangę of feminisms in her search for life. Ann Veronica attends suffrage and other radical meetings in London once she has left her father and home in order to “live”. She is arrested during a raid on the House of Commons, while trying to defend an elderly suffragette. However, the harshness of prison life forces Ann Veronica to see the error of her ways and to seek a reconciliation with her father upon her release. Here, militant suffragism is portrayed as a turning point. It is a reaction that brings down all the powers of patriarchy upon her and causes her to accept “life” as it is rather than seek to…

Towards a Real-time Mitigation of High Temperature while Drilling using a Multi-agent System

2018

International audience; In oilfield wells, while drilling for several kilometers below surface, high temperature damages the drilling tools. This costs money and time for tripping operations to change the damaged tool. Existing temperature mitigation techniques have several drawbacks including a long response time, analogue signal issues and human intervention. In this work, we empower the down-hole tools with a coordination mechanism to mitigate high temperature in soft real time by controlling a down-hole actuator through a voting process. The tools are represented by agents that control the sensors and actuators embedded in these tools. To implement the proposed system properly, a model …

Woman as a mate and comrade of man in H. G. Wells’s "The New Machiavelli"

2019

H. G. Wells’s The New Machiavelli (1911) was the bold statement of the rights of women in the new century. It was, of course, useless to deny that The New Machiavelli had a sexual base. The sexual relations between men and women had come to dominate Wells’s mind, and it was going to be an important topic in his books. Wells’s novel, which is a cry of anger against the oppressive conventions of society, is in part based on autobiographical details of Wells’s own life, his affair in 1908 with Amber Reeves, a brilliant Cambridge graduate. Central to Wells’s doctrines of male-female relationships is his understanding of the duality of love. Wells stresses the importance of two people loving eac…
