Context. It is generally agreed that hydrogenation reactions dominate chemistry on grain surfaces in cold, dense molecular cores, saturating the molecules present in ice mantles. Aims. We present a study of the low temperature reactivity of solid phase isocyanic acid (HNCO) with hydrogen atoms, with the aim of elucidating its reaction network. Methods. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and mass spectrometry were employed to follow the evolution of pure HNCO ice during bombardment with H atoms. Both multilayer and monolayer regimes were investigated. Results. The hydrogenation of HNCO does not produce detectable amounts of formamide (NH2CHO) as the major product. Experiments using deuterium reveal that deuteration of solid HNCO occurs rapidly, probably via cyclic reaction paths regenerating HNCO. Chemical desorption during these reaction cycles leads to loss of HNCO from the surface. Conclusions. It is unlikely that significant quantities of NH2CHO form from HNCO. In dense regions, however, deuteration of HNCO will occur. HNCO and DNCO will be introduced into the gas phase, even at low temperatures, as a result of chemical desorption.

In channel flows a step on the route to turbulence is the formation of streaks, often due to algebraic growth of disturbances. While a variation of viscosity in the gradient direction often plays a large role in laminar-turbulent transition in shear
flows, we show that it has, surprisingly, little effect on the algebraic growth. Non-uniform viscosity therefore may not always work as a flow-control strategy for maintaining the flow as laminar.
Motivated by Stanleys $mathbf{(3+1)}$-free conjecture on chromatic symmetric functions, Foley, Ho`{a}ng and Merkel introduced the concept of strong $e$-positivity and conjectured that a graph is strongly $e$-positive if and only if it is (claw, net)-
free. In order to study strongly $e$-positive graphs, they further introduced the twinning operation on a graph $G$ with respect to a vertex $v$, which adds a vertex $v$ to $G$ such that $v$ and $v$ are adjacent and any other vertex is adjacent to both of them or neither of them. Foley, Ho`{a}ng and Merkel conjectured that if $G$ is $e$-positive, then so is the resulting twin graph $G_v$ for any vertex $v$. Based on the theory of chromatic symmetric functions in non-commuting variables developed by Gebhard and Sagan, we establish the $e$-positivity of a class of graphs called tadpole graphs. By considering the twinning operation on a subclass of these graphs with respect to certain vertices we disprove the latter conjecture of Foley, Ho`{a}ng and Merkel. We further show that if $G$ is $e$-positive, the twin graph $G_v$ and more generally the clan graphs $G^{(k)}_v$ ($k ge 1$) may not even be $s$-positive, where $G^{(k)}_v$ is obtained from $G$ by applying $k$ twinning operations to $v$.
We present a computational study into the adsorption properties of CO$_2$ on amorphous and crystalline water surfaces under astrophysically relevant conditions. Water and carbon dioxide are two of the most dominant species in the icy mantles of inter
stellar dust grains and a thorough understanding of their solid phase interactions at low temperatures is crucial for understanding the structural evolution of the ices due to thermal segregation. In this paper, a new H$_2$O-CO$_2$ interaction potential is proposed and used to model the ballistic deposition of CO$_2$ layers on water ice surfaces, and to study the individual binding sites at low coverages. Contrary to recent experimental results, we do not observe CO$_2$ island formation on any type of water substrate. Additionally, density functional theory calculations are performed to assess the importance of induced electrostatic interactions.
Solar filaments are dark structures on the solar disk, with an elongated spine and several barbs extending out from the spine. When appearing above the solar limb, a filament is called a prominence, with several feet extending down to the solar surfa
ce. It was generally thought that filament barbs are simply the prominence feet veering away from the spine and down to the solar surface. However, it was recently noticed that there might be another dynamic type of barbs, which were proposed to be due to filament thread longitudinal oscillation. If this is the case, the dynamic barbs would not extend down to the solar surface. With the quadrature observations of a filament barb on 2011 June 5 from the {it Solar Dynamics Observatory} and the {it STEREO} satellites, we confirm that the filament barb is due to filament thread longitudinal oscillations. Viewed from the side, the filament barb looks like an appendix along the spine of the prominence, and does not extend down to the solar surface as a foot.
The electromagnetic calorimeter of PANDA at the FAIR facility will rely on an operation of lead tungstate (PWO) scintillation crystals at temperatures near -25 deg.C to provide sufficient resolution for photons in the energy range from 8 GeV down to
10 MeV. Radiation hardness of PWO crystals was studied at the IHEP (Protvino) irradiation facility in the temperature range from room temperature down to -25 deg.C. These studies have indicated a significantly different behaviour in the time evolution of the damaging processes well below room temperature. Different signal loss levels at the same dose rate, but at different temperatures were observed. The effect of a deep suppression of the crystal recovery process at temperatures below 0 deg.C has been seen.
