  1. Cold ions enable ion-acoustic waves in asymmetric reconnection
    Particle-in-cell simulations characterize ion-acoustic wave excitation and energy transfer mechanisms in asymmetric magnetic reconnection with cold ion populations.
  2. OH reaction with gamma-heptalactone favors C5 hydrogen abstraction
    Computational kinetic study of OH radical reactions with gamma-heptalactone, establishing reaction mechanisms, rate coefficients, and product formation pathways relevant to atmospheric chemistry.
