Are you unsure how to respond when they need to talk about gender identity and gender equality? We all are doing gender everyday, more or less aware. Many people have no idea about sex and gender and processes of socialization. The gender aspect is getting more and more important not only in politics, but also in youth work.

PhD position: Chemical dynamics research on reactions of methane Leiden University, The Netherlands — by anca — last modified 2008-07-29 06:58

Project description: General wisdom considers conversion of methane on a nickel catalyst as mostly hindered by a high reaction barrier to cleaving the first C-H bond on a clean patch of the metal. We will study an alternate reaction mechanism that involves recombinative desorption of H2 from a direct reaction of CH4 with pre-adsorbed hydrogen. Investigation of this Eley-Rideal type mechanism uses a combination of newly developed experimental methods on flat and stepped surfaces of nickel and platinum. Our studies intend to determine how this direct reaction path compares to activation on the bare surface and whether step sites, vibrational excitation of methane, and surface temperature are of importance
