Modeling metabolic networks of individual bacterial agents in heterogeneous and dynamic soil habitats (IndiMeSH)

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Meriç Ataman, Dani Or

Natural soil is characterized as a complex habitat with patchy hydrated islands and spatially variable nutrients that is in a constant state of change due to wetting-drying dynamics. Soil microbial activity is often concentrated in sparsely distributed hot ...

Analysis of runaway electron expulsion during tokamak instabilities detected by a single-channel Cherenkov probe in FTU

Cristian Galperti, Gabriele Grosso, Filippo Bagnato

The expulsion of runaway electrons (REs) during different types of tokamak instabilities is analysed by means of a Cherenkov probe inserted into the scrape-off layer of the FTU tokamak. One such type of instability, the well-known tearing mode, is involved ...
