We studied the atomic-level structure of a model Mg-MgH2 interface by means of the Car-Parrinello molecular dynamics method (CPMD). The interface was characterized in terms of total energy calculations, and an estimate of the work of adhesion was given, in good agreement with experimental results on similar systems. Furthermore, the interface was studied in a range of temperatures of interest for the desorption of hydrogen. We determined the diffusivity of atomic hydrogen as a function of the temperature, and give an estimate of the desorption temperature.

In language of genetics and biochemistry, sequencing is the determination of an unbranched biopolymer's primary structure. A sequence is a symbolic linear depiction, result of sequencing. This sequence is a succinct summary of the most of the sequenced molecule's atomic-level structure. (Most known is DNA-sequencing, RNA-sequencing, Protein-sequencing and Next-Generation-sequencing)

Successful stabilization and preservation of biological materials often utilize low temperatures and dehydration to arrest molecular motion. Cryoprotectants are routinely employed to help the biological entities survive the physicochemical and mechanical stresses induced by cold or dryness. Molecular interactions between biomolecules, cryoprotectants, and water fundamentally determine the outcomes of preservation. The optimization of assays using the empirical approach is often limited in structural and temporal resolution, whereas classical molecular dynamics simulations can provide a cost-effective glimpse into the atomic-level structure and interaction of individual molecules that dictate macroscopic behavior. Computational research on biomolecules, cryoprotectants, and water has provided invaluable insights into the development of new cryoprotectants and the optimization of preservation methods. We describe the rapidly evolving state of the art of molecular simulations of these complex systems, summarize the molecular-scale protective and stabilizing mechanisms, and discuss the challenges that motivate continued innovation in this field.

Active sites of single-atom nickel catalysts for CO2 reduction were revealed to be edge-located Ni–N2+2 sites with dangling bond-containing carbon atoms, which facilitate the dissociation of the C–O bond of *COOH intermediate.
