Serpentinization of ultramafic rocks is a naturally occurring mineralogical process that can generate molecular hydrogen through the oxidation of ferrous iron during water-rock reaction. Although the resource potential is large, the natural…
Recovery of oil from oil shales and the natural primary migration of hydrocarbons are closely related processes that have received renewed interests in recent years because of the ever tightening supply of conventional hydrocarbons and the…
Water ice is abundant both astrophysically, for example in molecular clouds, and in planetary systems. The Kuiper belt objects, many satellites of the outer solar system, the nuclei of comets and some planetary rings are all known to be…
We use novel, fast 4D Synchrotron X-ray imaging with large field-of-view to reveal pore- and macro-scale drainage dynamics during gas-brine flow through a layered sandstone rock sample. We show that a single centimetre-scale layer, similar…
Sedimentary rocks often form the upper layers or the entire target rocks in impact events. Thermodynamic properties of sedimentary rocks related to porosity and water saturation affect the process of impact crater formation. The…
Experimental results on the formation of molecular hydrogen on amorphous silicate surfaces are presented for the first time and analyzed using a rate equation model. The energy barriers for the relevant diffusion and desorption processes…
The behavior of gas bubbles in porous media includes bubble nucleation and growth, migration, coalescence, and trapping. These processes are significantly affected by the pore-scale characteristics and heterogeneity of the sediment. In this…
Hydrogen is an important building block in global strategies towards a future green energy system. To make this transition possible, intense scientific efforts are needed, also in the field of materials science. Two-dimensional crystals,…
Subsurface porous rocks have the potential to store large volumes of hydrogen (H$_2$) required for transitioning towards a H$_2$-based energy future. Understanding the flow and trapping behavior of H$_2$ in subsurface storage systems, which…
Understanding the process of multiphase fluid flow through porous media is crucial for many climate change mitigation technologies, including CO$_2$ geological storage, hydrogen storage, and fuel cells. However, current numerical models are…
Mineral dissolution in porous media is classically partitioned into static regimes within the Pe-Da plane, but this framework fails to capture the dissolution behavior of structurally complex rocks. Using three-dimensional micro-continuum…
The formation and decomposition of methane hydrates, particularly in porous media such as subsea sediments, have attracted significant research interest due to their implications for energy production, storage, and safety in deep-sea…
We propose a novel model to produce ultrahigh-energy cosmic-rays (UHECRs) in gamma-ray burst jets. After the prompt gamma-ray emission, hydrodynamical turbulence is excited in the GRB jets at or before the afterglow phase. The mildly…
Ultracold gases of dipolar molecules have long been envisioned as a platform for the realization of novel quantum phases. Recent advances in collisional shielding, protecting molecules from inelastic losses, have enabled the creation of…
We present the results of dynamic in-situ 3D X-ray imaging of methane hydrates microstructure during methane hydrate formation and decomposition in sand samples. Short scanning times and high resolution provided by synchrotron X-rays…
Two different microscopic phases have been observed via inelastic neutron scattering for superfluid helium confined within highly monodisperse, smooth, and unidimensional silica pores. When the helium forms a thin film on the pore walls, it…
We present a study the initial stages of ice growth on pristine and oxygen-functionalized highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (O-HOPG), combining low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy (LT-STM) and machine-learning structural…
Non-equilibrium conditions must have been crucial for the assembly of the first informational polymers of early life, but supporting their formation and continuous enrichment in a long-lasting environment. Here, we explore how gas bubbles…
The structures and dynamics of molecular, atomic, and ionized gases are studied around a low-luminosity active galactic nucleus (AGN) with a small ($2\times 10^6 M_\odot$) black hole using 3D radiation hydrodynamic simulations. We studied,…
The study of the formation of molecular hydrogen on low temperature surfaces is of interest both because it allows to explore elementary steps in the heterogeneous catalysis of a simple molecule and because of the applications in…
