Summary: In this study, the high resolution vibrational spectrum of vinyl acetylene was investigated using the Bruker IFS 120 HR spectrometer, revealing the energetically lowest vibrational fundamentals and hot bands. The spectroscopic analysis was supported by high-level quantum-chemical coupled-cluster calculations and previously outlined spectral line assignment procedure. Additionally, unpublished millimeter-wave vibrational satellites were added to the data set for the first time.

Summary: Reversible solid oxide cells can switch between electrical generation and electricity storage, but there is limited research on this mode-switching operation. This study provides electrochemical and post-test characterization of a 10 cm x 10 cm cell after a long-term life test, showing gradual performance decrease, gas crossover failure, and electrode delamination.

Summary: This paper presents an innovative mechanical modulation mechanism, named 'cantilever-driven rotor', to convert vibrations to uni-directional rotation for improved energy harvesting performance. Compared to conventional cantilever-based energy harvesters, the rotor-based energy harvester provides higher output power and wider working bandwidth, and can continue working even after the external excitation disappears.

Summary: We report the first solid-state crystalline Mg2+ conductor utilizing the pores of a metal-organic framework (MOF) as ion-conducting pathways, achieving superionic conductivity. The Mg2+ conductor exhibits a conductivity of 10-3Scm-1 at room temperature, which is the highest among all Mg2+-containing crystalline compounds. The efficient migration of the Mg2+ carrier is facilitated by the adsorbed guest molecules.

Summary: Crystalline optical cavities operating at cryogenic temperatures offer potential for ultrastable lasers with low thermal noise. The challenge lies in cooling long cavities to low temperatures. This study presents a continuously operating cryostat at 3.1 K for an ultrastable 10-cm silicon cavity, achieving a temperature instability of 6x10^(-8) K and vibration control on the 1x10^(-7) g level. The cryostat can support an ultrastable silicon cavity near its thermal noise floor, enabling precision metrology and quantum physics studies.

Summary: In this study, new results for (14)NH(3) in the 5600-6300 cm(-1) region were obtained through combined effort s of laboratory measurements and theoretical analysis. The definitive rovibrational quantum numbers were assigned for a large number of transitions and upper levels. The results showed good agreement with previous studies and made new assignments for previously unassigned transitions and new lines. This study contributes to the understanding of the spectroscopic properties of NH(3) molecule.

Summary: This study investigates the hydrogen crossover of PEMWE cells using a thin Nafion 212 membrane. The results show that the hydrogen crossover flux generally increases with increasing current density, but flattens in the high current regime. Considering hydrogen diffusion as the single transport mechanism is insufficient to explain these data, and the electro-osmotic drag of water containing dissolved hydrogen should be considered additionally.

Summary: Rapid variations of pressure, temperature, and illumination at the day-night terminator can cause asymmetries in the distribution of atmosphere constituents, with ozone gradients across the terminator on Mars due to photolysis. While retrieval algorithms typically assume a spherically symmetrical atmosphere, it is important to consider photochemically induced variations for accurate retrievals. The impact of gradients on ozone retrievals is closely related to the local atmospheric structure, with smaller impacts at sunrise and significant impacts at sunset.

Summary: One of the main difficulties in analyzing modern spectroscopic datasets is the large amount of data, with new lines usually being discovered after a long iterative process of model fitting and manual residual analysis. A new method based on unsupervised machine learning has been proposed to automatically detect new minor species.

Summary: The recent discovery of hydrogen chloride in the atmosphere of Mars by the Europe’s ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter suggests an annual increase in HCl abundance during the southern summer season, with a vertical distribution similar to water vapor. The formation of HCl is found to be independent of global dust storm events, and a rapid decrease in HCl abundance at the end of the southern summer indicates a strong sink mechanism unrelated to photochemical loss.

Summary: The NOMAD instrument on the ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter is a 3-channel spectrometer suite that measures the constituents of the Martian atmosphere. The LNO channel, which operates in the infrared range, primarily measures atmospheric absorption lines and surface features in nadir-viewing mode. The instrument has been calibrated and its results are consistent with other studies.

Summary: In this study, the authors demonstrate a method for detecting ice on Mars using the NOMAD instrument suite's nadir infrared observations. By analyzing the water ice absorption band and deriving the Frost and Clouds Index (FCI), they create maps of water ice clouds. The study shows that the detection of Polar Hood clouds is feasible, while the Aphelion Cloud Belt (ACB) is less detectable in the infrared.

Summary: The Martian atmosphere was investigated using the Solar Occultation (SO) channel of the NOMAD instrument. Vertical profiles of carbon dioxide density and temperature were analyzed, revealing the presence of warm layers at dawn and dusk in the Northern hemisphere and dawn in the Southern hemisphere. Strong warm layers were observed in more than 13.5% of the profiles, while no warm layers were found in the Southern hemisphere at dusk.
