La quĂmica bioortogonal y sus potencialidades
Esta editorial se centra en los dos artĂculos publicados en el nĂșmero 1 del volumen 37 de 2023: el primero nos descubre las enormes potencialidades de la quĂmica bioortogonal usando nanomateriales mientras que el segundo es un estudio donde se exponen las posibles rutas hacia sustitutos menos contaminantes del combustible diĂ©sel.
Existence of solutions for the equations modeling the motion of rigid bodies in an ideal fluid
International audienceIn this paper, we study the motion of rigid bodies in a perfect incompressible fluid. The rigid-fluid system fils a bounded three dimensional domain. Adapting a strategy from Brezis and Bourguignon, we use the stream lines of the fluid and we eliminate the pressure by solving a Neumann problem. In this way, the system is reduced to an ordinary differential equation on a closed infinite dimensional manifold. Using this formulation, we prove the local in time existence and uniqueness of strong solutions
Negative correlation of doping and conductivity in Ln1-xMxCr0.9Ni0.1O3 (Ln = La and/or Nd; M = Sr and/or Ca; xâ€0.25) perovskites prepared by combustion synthesis as anode materials for SOFCs
A series of chromite perovskites with the general formula Ln1âxMxCr0.9Ni0.1O3 (Ln = La and/or Nd; M = Sr and/or Ca; x †0.25) has been prepared by three combustion synthesis routes using a different combustible substance each time: glycine, urea and sucrose. In order to isolate the effect of divalent dopant concentration from the A cation steric effects, the whole group has a fixed mean A cation radius, â 1.22 Ă
, and cation size disorder, Ï2(rA) â 0.0001 Ă
2, but variable doping x. Their crystal structure, microstructure, electrical properties and expansion coefficients have been investigated on the basis of their possible use as anode materials for intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC). Cell parameters, grain sizes, expansion coefficients and conductivities all are found to be dependent on x and the combustible substance used. The most interesting relationship is the negative dependence of the conductivity with x under H2 atmosphere: conductivity decreases with doping which is the opposite to the expected behavior for a p-type doped perovskites and has not been reported before.Ministerio de EconomĂa y Competitividad, MAT2016-76739-R // Dpto.

A Kato type Theorem for the inviscid limit of the Navier-Stokes equations with a moving rigid body
The issue of the inviscid limit for the incompressible Navier-Stokes
equations when a no-slip condition is prescribed on the boundary is a famous
open problem. A result by Tosio Kato says that convergence to the Euler
equations holds true in the energy space if and only if the energy dissipation
rate of the viscous flow in a boundary layer of width proportional to the
viscosity vanishes. Of course, if one considers the motion of a solid body in
an incompressible fluid, with a no-slip condition at the interface, the issue
of the inviscid limit is as least as difficult. However it is not clear if the
additional difficulties linked to the body's dynamic make this issue more
difficult or not. In this paper we consider the motion of a rigid body in an
incompressible fluid occupying the complementary set in the space and we prove
that a Kato type condition implies the convergence of the fluid velocity and of
the body velocity as well, what seems to indicate that an answer in the case of
a fixed boundary could also bring an answer to the case where there is a moving
body in the fluid
Divergent effects of static disorder and hole doping in geometrically frustrated b-CaCr2O4
The gallium substituted and calcium deficient variants of geometrically
frustrated b-CaCr2O4, b-CaCr2-2xGa2xO4 (0.02<= x<= 0.25) and b-Ca1-yCr2O4
(0.075<= y<= 0.15), have been investigated by x-ray powder diffraction,
magnetization and specific heat measurements. This allows for a direct
comparison of the effects, in a geometrically frustrated magnet, of the static
disorder that arises from non-magnetic substitution and the dynamic disorder
that arises from hole doping. In both cases, disturbing the Cr3+ lattice
results in a reduction in the degree of magnetic frustration. On substitution
of Ga, which introduces disorder without creating holes, a gradual release of
spins from ordered antiferromagnetic states is observed. In contrast, in the
calcium deficient compounds the introduction of holes induces static
ferrimagnetic ordering and much stronger perturbations of the b-CaCr2O4 host.Comment: 23 pages, 10 figure
