Lecturer / scientist studying chemistry and physics of nanoscale materials & systems. He/him. Too many spelling & grammatical errors. Bon Jovi fan. Views my own
The creator of H-index (JE Hirsch) also regards H-index as his unruly child. He remarked, [it] can fail spectacularly and has severe -ve consequences. I still believe the title should be "The emperor has no clothes: why H-index and citation suck!"

Imagine the Lebanese resistance would flatten (parts of) Tel Aviv like Gaza. There would be international outrage over antisemitism. But if the IDF does it to Beirut it looks normal. No Islamophobia.
The definition of terrorism applies much better to IDF than to Hezbollah/Hamas.
when Bourdain said free Palestine and called out the racist vilification of Palestinians by the media class that paved the way for the genocide: "The world has visited many terrible things on the Palestinian people, none more shameful than robbing them of their basic humanity."
A Physics gang of 1930s:
The Via Panisperna Boys were a group of young physicists led by E. Fermi in the 30s Rome (named after the street where their lab was located). They pioneered groundbreaking works in neutron physics, including the discovery of slow neutrons, which became crucial for nuclear reactors and later the Manhattan Project.
... could potentially become a green and sustainable alternative to the mainstream chlor-alkaline process. It is still at infancy and further progress is needed to achieve practical realization.
Photocatalytic (PC) overall water splitting is common, but have you heard about PC brine splitting where Cl- oxidation to Cl2 or HOCl occurs instead of OER? Check out my review article on ChemRxiv. PC and PEC brine splitting to produce Cl2 or HOCl...

New pre-print out.
We show that better charge generation and transfer can't warrant high catalytic activity. For sensitive reactions like H2O2 synthesis, the rate constants govern the kinetics stronger than charge transfer properties.
Yale's R. Shankar's ignorance of quantum mechanics is so profound that he has written one of the best textbooks on the subject (imho the best if you enjoy wit).
I had occasion to use Shankar's introduction (with attribution) in my undergraduate lecture today after a student remarked that a quantum result seemed nonintuitive.

Ever wonder how your GPS always knows exactly how to help you on your way? Quantum mechanics helps make it possible!
Quantum science describes the oscillations of electrons in atoms, which can be used to keep the time inside a clock. These tiny timekeepers ride on satellites, which broadcast their readings to devices on Earth. Tracking the satellitesโ time and position, the devices can pinpoint their location all over the globe with extreme precision, keeping you on track for your daily commute or your next adventure!๐

Just before the holiest nights of the year, Gaza is plunged into another nightmare.
My latest reflection with @RNS on going into the last ten nights of Ramadan after one of the darkest nights of the genocide in Gaza.
