Regional game studies (2016)
Journal Article
Liboriussen, B., & Martin, P. (2016). Regional game studies

In the last few years there has been an increase in game scholarship conducted in and focussed on areas outside of Western Europe and North America. This scholarship has been recognized and supported by the establishment of regional research networks... Read More about Regional game studies.

Challenging thermodynamics: hydrogenation of benzene to 1,3- cyclohexadiene by Ru@Pt nanoparticles (2016)
Journal Article
Weilhard, A., Abarca, G. A., Viscardi, J., Prechtl, M. H., Scholten, J. D., Bernandi, F., …Dupont, J. (in press). Challenging thermodynamics: hydrogenation of benzene to 1,3- cyclohexadiene by Ru@Pt nanoparticles. ChemCatChem, 9(1), https://doi.org/10.1002/cctc.201601196

Since the earliest reports on catalytic benzene hydrogenation, 1,3-cyclohexadiene and cyclohexene have been proposed as key intermediates. However, the former has never been obtained with remarkable selectivity. Herein we report the first partial hyd...
