    This paper studies the effect of stock options expiration day on the underlying shares traded on the National Stock Exchange (NSE). Overall we tested for abnormal trading volume, abnormal price movement, individual stock reversal and stock pinning on expiration days. To the best of our knowledge, this is a first such study done on the Indian market.option expiration, indian market, nse, abnormal trading volume, abnormal price movement, individual stock reversal, stock pinning, stock price clustering

    Ligand and interfacial dynamics in a homodimeric hemoglobin

    The structural dynamics of dimeric hemoglobin (HbI) from Scapharca inaequivalvis in different ligand-binding states is studied from atomistic simulations on the μs time scale. The intermediates are between the fully ligand-bound (R) and ligand-free (T) states. Tertiary structural changes, such as rotation of the side chain of Phe97, breaking of the Lys96-heme salt bridge, and the Fe-Fe separation, are characterized and the water dynamics along the R-T transition is analyzed. All these properties for the intermediates are bracketed by those determined experimentally for the fully ligand-bound and ligand-free proteins, respectively. The dynamics of the two monomers is asymmetric on the 100 ns timescale. Several spontaneous rotations of the Phe97 side chain are observed which suggest a typical time scale of 50-100 ns for this process. Ligand migration pathways include regions between the B/G and C/G helices and, if observed, take place in the 100 ns time scale

    There are many different ways that energy is used in daily life. From applications that require a high energy density to long-term storage in a stable manner, the requirements for energy usage are diverse. Therefore, the greater the number of uses a designed material exhibit, the more practical it may be for wide-scale manufacture. An emerging class of functional porous materials referred to as metal-organic framework (MOF) has received considerable attention over the past two decades, partially because of their potential use in a wide variety of applications, including gas storage, molecular separations, water splitting, and supercapacitor devices. In addition, an electrode material with high performance as an essential part is highly desirable for supercapacitors. Herein, we synthesize the nickel-MOF (Ni-MIL-77) via an in-situ synthesis route using glutaric acid in a hydrothermal process at different temperatures @ 140, 160, and 180 °C. As an electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), Ni-MIL-77@140 displayed the lowest overpotential of 126 mV. On the other hand, Ni-MIL-77@160 showed the lowest overpotential of 330 mV among all samples for oxygen evolution reactions (OER). In terms of energy storage, the Ni-MIL-77@160 had the highest specific capacitance of 603 F/g at a current density of 1 A/g with an energy density of 25 W-h/kg and power density of 272 W/kg. This works offers the facile way to rationally design and synthesize the MOF-based electrodes for powerful and stable supercapacitor and also the efficient way for water splitting
