Cover image: How do palladium nanoclusters behave in hydrogen? Di Vece and co-authors observed hydrogen-induced Ostwald  ripening, the growth of larger palladium nanoclusters at the expense of the smaller ones. This is a schematic impression of the palladium nanoclusters with interstitial hydrogen between the palladium atoms,  which become free to move due to the interstitial hydrogen (see p24).
