We report variable and unique properties of 1,2-di(9-anthryl)benzene 1 as a fundamental moiety of anthracene-based π-cluster molecules. Due to a through-space π-conjugation between anthracene units, excimer emission at room temperature and charge delocalized state in radical cation state of 1 could be observed. Photoi…

Hydrophobins are fungal proteins whose functions are mainly based on their capability to self-assemble into amphiphilic films at hydrophobic-hydrophilic interfaces (HHI). It is widely accepted that class I hydrophobins form amyloid-like structures, named rodlets, which are hundreds of nanometers long, packed into orde…

The dynamic response of a homogeneous half-space, with a traction-free surface, is considered within the framework of non-local elasticity. The focus is on the dominant effect of the boundary layer on overall behaviour. A typical wavelength is assumed to considerably exceed the associated internal lengthscale. The lea…

For the enhancement of insulation strength in vacuum, spark conditioning is an important and effective method. In order to enhance the insulation performance of vacuum circuit breakers, we have to clarify the conditioning effect and improve a conditioning procedure. In this paper, we discuss the conditioning process o…

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Every year, in Europe, acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is diagnosed in thousands of adults. For most subtypes of AML, the backbone of treatment was introduced nearly 40 years ago as a combination of cytosine arabinoside with an anthracycline. This therapy is still the worldwide standard of care. Two-…
