Many 2D covalent polymers synthesized as single layers on surfaces show inherent disorder, expressed for example in their ring-size distribution. Systems which are expected to form the thermodynamically favored hexagonal lattice usually deviate from crysta ...
We present a computational study of the internal optical forces arising in plasmonic gap antennas, dolmen structures and split rings. We find that very strong internal forces perpendicular to the propagation direction appear in these systems. These interna ...
Let M be a quotient of H-2 x ... x H-2 (product of hyperbolic planes) by a uniform lattice of. PSL2(R))(n). We prove that, among metrics of M of prescribed volume, the sum of hyperbolic metrics has minimal volume entropy. ...
In this article, we present some new properties of representations of Yang-Mills algebras. We first show that any free Lie algebra with m generators is a quotient of the Yang-Mills algebra ym(n) on n generators, for n ≥ 2m. We derive from this that any sem ...
We prove polarization theorems for arbitrary classical-quantum (cq) channels. The input alphabet is endowed with an arbitrary Abelian group operation, and an Anion-style transformation is applied using this operation. It is shown that as the number of pola ...
The eukaryotic cytosolic chaperonin, t-complex polypeptide 1 (TCP-1) ring complex or TRiC, is responsible for folding a tenth of the proteins in the cell. TRiC is a double-ringed barrel with each ring composed of eight different CCT (chaperonin containing ...
Digital silicon photo-multipliers (SiPMs) have emerged in the recent past as a viable low cost alternative to photomultiplier tubes in positron emission tomography systems, providing multiple timestamps, energy and scintillation coordinates at high spatial ...
We present a combined analytical approach and numerical study on the stability of a ring bound to an annular elastic substrate, which contains a circular cavity. The system is loaded by depressurizing the inner cavity. The ring is modeled as an Euler-Berno ...
Computer model-based simulations have shown that rapid stimulation at 60-100% of atrial fibrillation cycle length (AFCL) from a ring of electrodes located around the septum may induce local capture in both atria for most AF dynamics. The present study aims ...
We drive an explict expression for the resonance frequency shift for a subwavelength plasmonic nanocavity upon the adsorption or trapping of a single nanoparticle using rigorous perturbation theory. It reveals a simple linear dependence of the resonance fr ...
