Abstract We theoretically study magnetization direction dependence of the anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR) effect of a strong ferromagnet. We here use the two‐current model which takes into account the s –d scattering, where s (d) is the conduction state (the localized d states). The d states have the spin–orbit in…

SGT1 is an evolutionarily conserved eukaryotic protein involved in many important cellular processes. In plants, SGT1 is involved in resistance to disease. In a low ionic strength environment, the SGT1 protein tends to form dimers. The protein consists of three structurally independent domains (the tetratricopeptide r…

Topological symmetry groups were originally introduced to study the symmetries of non-rigid molecules, but have since been used to study the symmetries of any graph embedded in R3. In this paper, we determine for each complete graph Kn with n ≤ 6, what groups can occur as topological symmetry groups or orientation pre…
