EEG microstate sequences in healthy humans at rest reveal scale-free dynamics

Recent findings identified electroencephalography (EEG) microstates as the electrophysiological correlates of fMRI resting-state networks. Microstates are defined as short periods (100 ms) during which the EEG scalp topography remains quasi-stable; that is ...

A partition-free approach to transient and steady-state charge currents

We construct a non-equilibrium steady state and calculate the corresponding current for a mesoscopic Fermi system in the partition-free setting. To this end we study a small sample coupled to a finite number of semi-infinite leads. Initially, the whole sys ...

Interprétations. Alternative au déterminisme fonctionnel dans l'habitation collective. Logements à l'avenue Victor Ruffy, Lausanne

Céline Baudat

Comment créer des habitations pour des personnes que l'on ne connaît pas? Historiquement, cette problématique a donné lieu à diverses propositions, allant de parois mobiles, laissant la responsabilité de l'agencement spatial aux occupants, à “l'éducation” ...

Threshold saturation via spatial coupling: Why convolutional LDPC ensembles perform so well over the BEC

Rüdiger Urbanke, Shrinivas Kudekar

Convolutional LDPC ensembles, introduced by Felstrom and Zigangirov, have excellent thresholds and these thresholds are rapidly increasing as a function of the average degree. Several variations on the basic theme have been proposed to date, all of which s ...

Study of Nanometric Machining in Crystalline Solids Using Molecular Dynamics

Jean-François Molinari, Guillaume Anciaux, Pedro Romero

Due to the current interest in nanotechnology, there is a strong desire for comprehensive knowledge on the underlying mechanisms governing the nanometric machining process. This article employs molecular dynamics to study nanomachining in ductile crystalli ...

BOLD correlates of EEG topography reveal rapid resting-state network dynamics

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville

Resting-state functional connectivity studies with fMRI showed that the brain is intrinsically organized into large-scale functional networks for which the hemodynamic signature is stable for about 10 s. Spatial analyses of the topography of the spontaneou ...

Pattern-Based Sensing of Sulfated Glycosaminoglycans with a Dynamic Mixture of Iron Complexes

Kay Severin

A dynamic mixture of iron complexes was used as a colorimetric sensor for sulfated glycosaminoglycans. The sensing ensemble was prepared by mixing [FeCl2(H2O)4] with dipicolylamine, the functionalized bipyridyl ligand N-(6-aminohexyl)-4'-methyl-2,2'-bipyri ...

Vibrational entropy and the structural organization of proteins

Paolo De Los Rios, Francesco Piazza

In this paper we analyze the vibrational spectra of a large ensemble of non-homologous protein structures by means of a novel tool, that we coin Hierarchical Network Model (HNM). Our coarse-grained scheme accounts for the intrinsic heterogeneity of force c ...

Chemosensors Based on Metal-Dye Complexes for Bioanalytes

Friederike Gundula Marie Zaubitzer

Multicomponent chemosensors were prepared by mixing the rhodium(III) complex [(η5-C5Me5)RhCl 2]2, nickel(II) chloride and/or copper(II) chloride with commercially available dyes in buffered aqueous solution. The sensors were used to detect various biomolec ...

Ground state properties of large atoms and quantum dots

Rico Rueedi

We investigate the ground state properties of large atoms and quantum dots described by a d-dimensional N-body Hamiltonian of confinement ZV. In atoms, d = 3 and V is the Coulomb interaction; in dots, d = 2 and V is phenomenologically determined. We expres ...
