Coordination and thermodynamic properties of aqueous protactinium(V) by first-principle calculations
Protactinium ($Z$ = 91) is a very rare actinide with peculiar physico-chemical properties. Indeed, although one may naively think that it behaves similarly to either thorium or uranium by its position in the periodic table, it may in fact follow its own rules. Because of the quite small energy gap …
