The importance of many-body dispersion effects in layered materials subjected to high external loads is evaluated. State-of-the-art many-body dispersion density functional theory calculations performed for graphite, hexagonal boron nitride, and their heterostructures were used to fit the parameters of a

The nature of DNA containing the deoxyribosyl derivative of 5-nitroindole has been investigated. 5-Nitroindole has been shown to give good stability when present in duplexes opposite natural bases, with only slightly reduced melting temperatures. However, enhanced stability occurs when it
