Semisimple types for quaternionic forms of p-adic classical groups and compatible beta-extensions

Let $G$ be a quaternionic form of a $p$-adic classical group ($p$ odd). We construct a Bushnell-Kutzko-Stevens type for every Bernstein block of the category of smooth complex representations of $G$. Further we construct a system of compatible $\beta$-extensions, i.e. a family of $\beta$-extensions parametrised by the points of a chamber of the Bruhat-Tits building of the centralizer $G_\beta$ which are related via transfer.

A group-theoretic generalization of the $p$-adic local monodromy theorem

Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over a $p$-adic local field $F$. We propose and study the notions of $G$-$φ$-modules and $G$-$(φ,\nabla)$-modules over the Robba ring, which are exact faithful $F$-linear tensor functors from the category of $G$-representations on finite-dimensional $F$-vector spaces to the categories of $φ$-modules and $(φ,\nabla)$-modules over the Robba ring, respectively, commuting with the respective fiber functors. We study Kedlaya's slope filtration theorem in this context, and show that $G$-$(φ,\nabla)$-modules over the Robba ring are "$G$-quasi-unipotent", which is a generalization of the $p$-adic local monodromy theorem proven independently by Y. André, K. S. Kedlaya, and Z. Mebkhout.

Ambient Electro-Synthesis of Ammonia - Electrode Porosity and Composition Engineering

Ammonia, key precursor for fertilizer production, convenient hydrogen carrier and emerging clean fuel, plays a pivotal role in sustaining life on earth. Currently, the main route for NH3 synthesis is via the heterogeneous catalytic Haber-Bosch process (N2+3H2 - 2NH3), which proceeds under extreme conditions of temperature and pressure with a very large carbon footprint. Herein we report that a pristine nitrogen-doped nanoporous graphitic carbon membrane (NCM) can electrochemically convert N2 into NH3 in an aqueous acidic solution under ambient conditions. The Faradaic efficiency and rate of production of NH3 on the NCM electrode reach 5.2% and 0.08 g m-2 h-1, respectively. After functionalization of the NCM with Au nanoparticles (Au NPs) these performance metrics are dramatically enhanced to 22% and 0.36 g m-2 h-1, respectively. These efficiencies and rates for the production of NH3 at room temperature and atmospheric pressure are unprecedented. As this system offers the potential to be scaled to industrial proportions there is a high likelihood it might displace the century old Haber-Bosch process.
