De Jane Eyre à Shirley : une représentation des éléments transformée par les bouleversements sociaux ? by Élise Ouvrard

“…The representation of the four elements in Shirley is thus quite different from the one David Lodge analysed in Jane Eyre (« Fire and Eyre : Charlotte Brontë’s War of Earthly Elements »). The passionate and purifying fire which characterizes Jane Eyre becomes endowed with a social dimension : it reduces to ashes many factories, such as the one Sykes owns for instance (« his dressing-shop was set on fire and burnt to the ground ») ; fire is associated to revolt, hatred but also death since gunshots can be heard several times. …”

Decreasing viscosity and increasing accessible load by replacing classical diluents with a hydrotrope in liquid–liquid extraction by Asmae El Maangar, Thomas Zemb, Clément Fleury, Jean Duhamet, Jean-François Dufrêche, Stéphane Pellet-Rostaing

“…Based on SAXS and surface tension measurements, the origin of this gain in Gibbs energy of transfer and tunable selectivity in the family of rare earth elements is further identified by three mechanisms: reduction of the term linked to complexation, more than compensated by a synergistic effect of the hydrotrope and the comlexant, and the intra-aggregate entropy of mixing. …”

Machine learning Hubbard parameters with equivariant neural networks by Martin Uhrin, Austin Zadoks, Luca Binci, Nicola Marzari, Iurii Timrov

“…Abstract Density-functional theory with extended Hubbard functionals (DFT + U + V) provides a robust framework to accurately describe complex materials containing transition-metal or rare-earth elements. It does so by mitigating self-interaction errors inherent to semi-local functionals which are particularly pronounced in systems with partially-filled d and f electronic states. …”
