Surface oxidation of pyrite under ambient atmospheric and aqueous (pH=2 to 10) conditions: Electronic structure and mineralogy from X-ray absorption spectroscopy

TL;DR: In this paper, the surface oxidation phase on pyrite, FeS2, reacted in aqueous electrolytes at pH = 2 to 10 and with air under ambient atmospheric conditions was studied using synchrotron-based oxygen K edge, sulfur LIII edge, and iron LII,III edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Surface oxidation of chalcopyrite (CuFeS2) under ambient atmospheric and aqueous (pH 2-10) conditions: Cu, Fe L- and O K-edge X-ray spectroscopy

TL;DR: In this article, X-ray absorption and emission spectra were used to characterize the surface of chalcopyrite after oxidation both in air and in air-saturated aqueous solution (pH = 2-10).
Journal ArticleDOI

Atomistic simulation of trace element incorporation into garnets—comparison with experimental garnet-melt partitioning data

TL;DR: In this article, the Brice model was applied to simulate perfect and defective lattices in the static limit of pure almandine (Alm), grossular (Gros), pyrope (Py) and spessartine (Spes) garnets.
Journal ArticleDOI

The ‘zero charge’ partitioning behaviour of noble gases during mantle melting

TL;DR: Independent atomistic computer simulations indicate that noble gases can be considered as species of ‘zero charge’ incorporated at crystal lattice sites, which provides a theoretical framework with which to model noble-gas geochemistry as a function of residual mantle mineralogy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Guest-Adaptable and Water-Stable Peptide-Based Porous Materials by Imidazolate Side Chain Control

TL;DR: Single-crystal X-ray diffraction showed that the ZnCar framework adapts to MeOH and H2O guests because of the torsional flexibility of the main His-β-Ala chain, while retaining the rigidity conferred by theZn–imidazolate chains.
