Particulate dark matter (DM), completely isolated from the Standard Model particle sector, can be produced in early Universe primordial black hole (PBH) evaporation. However, big bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) observations put an upper bound on initial mass of PBH requiring to evaporate before advent BBN. DM particles range $\ensuremath{\sim}(1--{10}^{9})\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{GeV}$ cannot explain...

Since Priestley utilized the radiant energy of the sun with his burning glass in his famous experiment of 1774, the method has fallen into disuse and the chemist has accepted the water-bath, the hot-air oven, and the furnace as the standard tools for evaporation, drying, and combustion. The boiling water-bath is used for evaporating solutions or drying solids which decompose at temperatures sli...

out. It has been my experience that the preventive treatment recommended involves prolonged rest in bed, leeches, evaporating lotions, counter-irritation, fomentations, etc., and frequently, notwithstanding a loug trial, the case ends in suppuration requiring incision, and a long time spent in stuffing the cavity. Personal experience points out the great benefit derived from an early incision, ...

Atomic hydrogen escaping from the extrasolar giant planet HD209458b provides the largest observational signature ever detected for an extrasolar planet atmosphere. In fact, the upper atmosphere of this planet is evaporating. Observational evidences and interpretations coming from various models are reviewed. Implications for exoplanetology are discussed.

The phenomenon of gaseous thermal explosion within inert insulation material filled with a combustible evaporating fuel is considered. A novel approach to estimate the activation energy is suggested using the available experimental data and the relevant theoretical predictions concerning the delay ignition time.  2003 Elsevier Science B.V.

Theoretical calculations and experimental measurements reveal that, in any array of identical sessile droplets, the appropriately scaled drying dynamics 1st, 2nd, n-th fastest evaporating droplets are (almost) universal across different arrangements.
