Hydrodynamic Influence

In the purpose of in situ control of hydrodynamic influence on electrochemical processes, a cell jet device has been conceived and characterized. This cell was sensitive to parameters that are the jet tube diameter, and its height versus the working electrode. So, the three hydrodynamic flow modes have been established from the non dimensional Reynolds number. From the use of this cell for the study of co deposition from the Ni/SiC system with a WATT bath, it was shown that the turbulent flow to favor more embedment of SiC particles in the nickel matrix. It also noted an influence of the flow mode and SiC particles on the working current.

AbstractWe studied adsorption, growth and desorption of Xe on Nb(110) using an in-situ obliqueincidence reflectivity difference (OI-RD) technique and low energy electron diffraction (LEED) from 32 K to 100 K. The results show that Xe grows a (111)-oriented film after a transition layer is formed on Nb(110). The transition layer consists of three layers. The first two layers are disordered with Xe-Xe separation significantly larger than the bulk value. The third monolayer forms a close packed (111) structure on top of the tensile-strained double layer and serves as a template for subsequent homoepitaxy. The adsorption of the first and the second layers are zeroth order with sticking coefficient close to one. Growth of the Xe(111) film on the transition layer proceeds in a step flow mode from 54K to 40K. At 40K, an incomplete layer-by-layer growth is observed while below 35K the growth proceeds in a multilayer mode.

This article presents a versatile easy-to-use electrochemical cell suitable forin operando,in situmeasurements of battery materials during electrochemical cycling using a variety of X-ray techniques. Argonne's multi-purposein situX-ray (AMPIX) cell provides reliable electrochemical cycling over extended periods owing to the uniform stack pressure applied by rigid X-ray windows and the formation of a high-fidelity hermetic seal. The suitability of the AMPIX cell for a broad range of synchrotron-based X-ray scattering and spectroscopic measurements has been demonstrated with studies at eight Advanced Photon Source beamlines to date. Compatible techniques include pair distribution function analysis, high-resolution powder diffraction, small-angle scattering and X-ray absorption spectroscopy. These techniques probe a broad range of electronic, structural and morphological features relevant to battery materials. The AMPIX cell enables experiments providing greater insight into the complex processes that occur in operating batteries by allowing the electrochemical reactions to be probed at fine reaction intervals with greater consistency (within the charge–discharge cycle and between different methodologies) with potential for new time-dependent kinetic studies or studies of transient species. Representative X-ray and electrochemical data to demonstrate the functionality of the AMPIX cell are presented.

AbstractMammalian and Drosophila genomes are partitioned into topologically associating domains (TADs). Although this partitioning has been reported to be functionally relevant, it is unclear whether TADs represent true physical units located at the same genomic positions in each cell nucleus or emerge as an average of numerous alternative chromatin folding patterns in a cell population. Here, we use a single-nucleus Hi-C technique to construct high-resolution Hi-C maps in individual Drosophila genomes. These maps demonstrate chromatin compartmentalization at the megabase scale and partitioning of the genome into non-hierarchical TADs at the scale of 100 kb, which closely resembles the TAD profile in the bulk in situ Hi-C data. Over 40% of TAD boundaries are conserved between individual nuclei and possess a high level of active epigenetic marks. Polymer simulations demonstrate that chromatin folding is best described by the random walk model within TADs and is most suitably approximated by a crumpled globule build of Gaussian blobs at longer distances. We observe prominent cell-to-cell variability in the long-range contacts between either active genome loci or between Polycomb-bound regions, suggesting an important contribution of stochastic processes to the formation of the Drosophila 3D genome.

The bacterial flagellar motor, a cell-envelope-embedded macromolecular machine that functions as a cellular propeller, exhibits significant structural variability between species. Different torque-generating stator modules allow motors to operate in different pH, salt or viscosity levels. How such diversity evolved is unknown. Here, we use electron cryo-tomography to determine the in situ macromolecular structures of three Gammaproteobacteria motors: Legionella pneumophila, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Shewanella oneidensis, providing the first views of intact motors with dual stator systems. Complementing our imaging with bioinformatics analysis, we find a correlation between the motor’s stator system and its structural elaboration. Motors with a single H+-driven stator have only the core periplasmic P- and L-rings; those with dual H+-driven stators have an elaborated P-ring; and motors with Na+ or Na+/H+-driven stators have both their P- and L-rings embellished. Our results suggest an evolution of structural elaboration that may have enabled pathogenic bacteria to colonize higher-viscosity environments in animal hosts.
