The role of Ru clusters in Fe carbide suppression for the reverse water gas shift reaction over electropromoted Ru/FeOx catalysts by Christopher Panaritis, Johnny Zgheib, Martin Couillard, Elena A. Baranova

“…The synergetic effect of Ru and FeOx was further emphasized through electrochemical polarization, which led to a reversible catalytic activity increase of up to 2.4 times. The addition of Ru inhibits the formation of inactive Fe carbide by acting as the reducing component and stabilizing the FeOx active state. …”

Advanced localization of massive black hole coalescences with LISA by Lang, Ryan N., Hughes, Scott A

“…Measurements of the GWs can localize the source on the sky to an ellipse with a major axis of a few tens of arcminutes to a few degrees, depending on source redshift, and a minor axis which is 2–4 times smaller. The distance (and thus an approximate redshift) can be determined to better than a per cent for the closest sources we consider, although weak lensing degrades this performance. …”
