The electrochemical oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is an essential half-reaction for the utilization of hydrogen as a sustainable fuel, via the conversion of hydrogen to electrons and protons facilitated by the ORR. In the most common fuel cells, the ORR is requires high loadings of non-abundant platinum…

Statistical distributions in LCA and converting between different representations of these distributions.

Wat zijn heksen en wat is hun rol binnen de samenleving? Dat zijn kernvragen van het symposium 'Hekserij in Holland' van het Leids Instituut voor Godsdienstwetenschappen op 12 april. Twee heksen treden op als gastsprekers. En nee, ze komen niet op een bezemsteel.
