The Performance of Different AgTiO2 Loading into Poly(3-Nitrothiophene) for Efficient Adsorption of Hazardous Brilliant Green and Crystal Violet Dyes by Sara A. Alqarni

“…A range of batch adsorption studies was used to optimize various factors that impact the elimination of B.G. or C.V. dyes, including the pH, weight of the binary P3NT/AgTiO2 NC, proportion of AgTiO2 NP, time, and temperature. The pseudo-second-order kinetics (R2=0.999) was better adapted for the adsorption procedure’s empirical data whereby the maximum adsorption capacity of the C.V. dye was 43.10 mg/g and (R2=0.996) the maximum adsorption potential was 40.16 mg/g for B.G. dye, succeeded by the pseudo-second-order kinetics. …”

Testing the light scalar meson as a non- q q ¯ $$ q\overline{q} $$ state in semileptonic D decays by Yu-Kuo Hsiao, Shu-Qi Yang, Wen-Juan Wei, Bai-Cian Ke

“…Abstract While the light scalar mesons (S 0) are considered to be either ordinary q q ¯ $$ q\overline{q} $$ or exotic tetraquark states, we investigate the semileptonic decays D → S 0 e + ν e , by taking into account the resonant effects of S 0 → M 1 M 2, where S 0 = a 0(980), f 0(980), and f 0(500)/σ 0, and M 1(2) represents a pseudoscalar meson. For the first time, the D → S 0 form factors in the two quark structures are both presented. …”
