Densely populated macrocyclic dicobalt sites in ladder polymers for low-overpotential oxygen reduction catalysis by Zhen Zhang, Zhenyu Xing, Xianglin Luo, Chong Cheng, Xikui Liu

“…Here we design a bisalphen ladder polymer with well-defined densely populated binuclear cobalt sites on Ketjenblack substrates. The strong electron coupling effect between the fully-conjugated ladder structure and carbon substrates enhances the electron transfer between the cobalt center and oxygen intermediates, inducing the low-to-high spin transition for the 3d electron of Co(II). …”

Closely Spaced MEG Source Localization and Functional Connectivity Analysis Using a New Prewhitening Invariance of Noise Space Algorithm by Junpeng Zhang, Yuan Cui, Lihua Deng, Ling He, Junran Zhang, Jing Zhang, Qun Zhou, Qi Liu, Zhiguo Zhang

“…Conventional source localization methods, such as sLORETA and beamformer, cannot distinguish closely spaced cortical sources, especially under strong intersource correlation. Our previous work proposed an invariance of noise space (INN) method to resolve closely spaced sources, but its performance is seriously degraded under correlated noise between MEG sensors. …”

Geochemistry of Formation Water and Implications for Ultradeep Tight Sandstone of DK Gas Field in Kuqa Depression by Xiaobo Guo, Libin Zhao, Wei Han, Longfei Zhou, Zhilong Huang, Xiongwei Sun, Xuejun Yang, Tonghui Zhang, Chenglin Zhang

“…Sodium/chloride ratio (ρNa+/ρCl-), metamorphic coefficient (ρ(Cl--Na+)/ρ(Mg2+)), desulfurization coefficient (100×ρSO42−/ρCl−), and trace elements concentration parameters show that the formation water was formed in a closed and reductive environment and experienced strong water-rock interaction. The formation water may have been influenced by early seawater, but it is not significant and is more likely to have been influenced by water seepage from the overlying gypsum strata. …”
