TL;DR: Depending on the feed composition, CO( 2) and H(2)S may be removed over TRI-PE-MCM-41 simultaneously or sequentially, suitable for acid gas separation from CH(4)-containing mixtures such as natural gas and biogas.
Abstract: Triamine-grafted pore-expanded mesoporous silica (TRI-PE-MCM-41) exhibited high CO2 and H2S adsorption capacity as well as high selectivity toward acid gases versus CH4. Unlike physical adsorbents such as zeolites and activated carbons, the presence of moisture in the feed enhanced the CO2 removal capability of TRI-PE-MCM-41 without altering its H2S adsorption capacity. Thus, depending on the feed composition, CO2 and H2S may be removed over TRI-PE-MCM-41 simultaneously or sequentially. These findings are suitable for acid gas separation from CH4-containing mixtures such as natural gas and biogas.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the uniqueness of higher-spin algebras and showed that the Eastwood-Vasiliev algebra is the unique solution for d = 4 and d > 7.
Abstract: We study the uniqueness of higher-spin algebras which are at the core of higher-spin theories in AdS and of CFTs with exact higher-spin symmetry, i.e. conserved tensors of rank greater than two. The Jacobi identity for the gauge algebra is the simplest consistency test that appears at the quartic order for a gauge theory. Similarly, the algebra of charges in a CFT must also obey the Jacobi identity. These algebras are essentially the same. Solving the Jacobi identity under some simplifying assumptions spelled out, we obtain that the Eastwood-Vasiliev algebra is the unique solution for d = 4 and d > 7. In 5d there is a one-parameter family of algebras that was known before. In particular, we show that the introduction of a single higher-spin gauge field/current automatically requires the infinite tower of higher-spin gauge fields/currents. The result implies that from all the admissible non-Abelian cubic vertices in AdSd, that have been recently classified for totally symmetric higher-spin gauge fields, only one vertex can pass the Jacobi consistency test. This cubic vertex is associated with a gauge deformation that is the germ of the Eastwood-Vasiliev’s higher-spin algebra.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report constraints on the sources of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) above 10^{9} GeV, based on an analysis of seven years of IceCube data.
Abstract: We report constraints on the sources of ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) above 10^{9} GeV, based on an analysis of seven years of IceCube data. This analysis efficiently selects very high- energy neutrino-induced events which have deposited energies from 5×10^{5} GeV to above 10^{11} GeV. Two neutrino-induced events with an estimated deposited energy of (2.6±0.3)×10^{6} GeV, the highest neutrino energy observed so far, and (7.7±2.0)×10^{5} GeV were detected. The atmospheric background-only hypothesis of detecting these events is rejected at 3.6σ. The hypothesis that the observed events are of cosmogenic origin is also rejected at >99% CL because of the limited deposited energy and the nonobservation of events at higher energy, while their observation is consistent with an astrophysical origin. Our limits on cosmogenic neutrino fluxes disfavor the UHECR sources having a cosmological evolution stronger than the star formation rate, e.g., active galactic nuclei and γ-ray bursts, assuming proton-dominated UHECRs. Constraints on UHECR sources including mixed and heavy UHECR compositions are obtained for models of neutrino production within UHECR sources. Our limit disfavors a significant part of parameter space for active galactic nuclei and new-born pulsar models. These limits on the ultrahigh-energy neutrino flux models are the most stringent to date.

TL;DR: In this article, a measurement of the lepton charge asymmetry in WX production at 7 TeV was presented based on data recorded by the CMS detector at the LHC and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36 inverse picobarns.
Abstract: A measurement of the lepton charge asymmetry in inclusive pp to WX production at sqrt(s)= 7 TeV is presented based on data recorded by the CMS detector at the LHC and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36 inverse picobarns. This high precision measurement of the lepton charge asymmetry, performed in both the W to e nu and W to mu nu channels, provides new insights into parton distribution functions.
