The hydration and complexation of metals in hydrothermal fluids are key processes
controlling the mobility of elements in the Earth's crust, leading to the formation of ore …

The structure of the uranyl aqua ion (UO 2 2+) and a number of its inorganic complexes
(specifically, UO 2 C l+, UO 2 C l 2 0, UO 2 SO 4 0, UO 2 SO 4 2 2−, UO 2 CO 3 3 4− and UO …

The synthesis of bismuth oxyhalides as defined nanostructures is hindered by their fast
nucleation and growth in aqueous solutions. Using our recently developed single-source …

The interaction of high intensity synchrotron radiation X-rays in the energy range 5< E< 30
keV with matter can produce a large number of expected and less expected effects. Whether …

We have studied the formation of nanoparticles in lead sulfide (PbS)-doped borosilicate
glass subjected to a two-step nucleation and growth heat treatment using in situ small-angle …

Synchrotron X-ray-induced reduction of Au ions in an aqueous solution with or without
support materials is reported. To clarify the process of radiation-induced reduction of metal …

In a supercritical water reactor (SCWR), the decrease in water density from subcritical to
supercritical regions in the reactor core results in a decrease of solubility and deposition of …

The study of reactions involving liquids at elevated temperatures and/or pressures is
important in a wide range of disciplines, including earth and planetary sciences, corrosion …

Ionic current X-ray absorption spectroscopy (IC-XAS) relaying on the synchrotron beam-
induced ionization current was recently proposed as an alternative approach for XAS …

The majority of uranium-bearing ore deposits are the product of hydrothermal fluid
interactions typically over a temperature range of~ 150–400 ºC. Similar conditions that form …
