Background: Recent data suggest that musical practice prevents age-related cognitive decline. But experimental evidence remains sparse and no concise information on the neurophysiological bases exists, although cognitive decline represents a major impedime ...
Oxalate decarboxylase (OxDC) catalyzes the Mn-dependent conversion of the oxalate monoanion into CO2 and formate. EPR-based strategies for investigating the catalytic mechanism of decarboxylation are complicated by the difficulty of assigning the signals a ...
The first part of this thesis presents the theoretical study of an anomaly of unknown origin in the excitation spectrum of the Quantumspin-1/2 Heisenberg Square lattice Anti-Ferromagnet. The anomaly manifests itself in Inelastic Neutron Scattering data for ...
We introduce phantom curves, a novel music-theoretical concept based on the discrete Fourier transform (DFT), and document the creative process that led to their discovery. In particular, we emphasize the importance of interactive web applications for musi ...
Proximity effects induced in the two-dimensional Dirac material graphene potentially open access to novel and intriguing physical phenomena. Thus far, the coupling between graphene and ferromagnetic insulators has been experimentally established. However, ...
The integration of information has been considered a hallmark of human consciousness, as it requires information being globally available via widespread neural interactions. Yet the complex interdependencies between multisensory integration and perceptual ...
Gravity currents are density-driven flows which can have a high sediment transport capacity. When occurring in reservoirs, lakes and in oceans, significant geomorphic changes may occur at the bottom. The coupling between the hydrodynamics of the gravity cu ...
Béton brut and ineffable space: two concepts defined by Le Corbusier after World War II that speak about a stronger dialogue between materials and artistic vision of his work. Invented to designate his own particular use of exposed concrete, béton brut is ...
More than one hundred years after the discovery of superconductivity in Leiden, the intriguing physics of several unconventional classes of superconductors continue to fascinate and challenge scientists from all over the world. The majority of these compou ...
This semester project comes within the scope of studies at the nanometre scale. The experimental techniques used in this work are related to atomic force microscopy, which gives a direct access to the topography and forces of the studied systems. The goal ...
