Protein crystallization has been studied in presence or absence of buoyancy-driven convection. Gravity-driven flow was created, or suppressed, in protein solutions by means of vertically directed density gradients that were caused by generating suitable temperature gradients. The presence of enhanced mixing was demons…

The universal formulation of Urbach's rule in solids has been considered in terms of the single-phonon approach. The “crystalline” and “glassy” variants of this rule, which are obtained on the basis of different ratios of contributions from the dynamic and static types of disorder, have been discussed with using some…

We present a model of the phytoplankton dynamics. The distribution of the size of the phytoplankton aggregates is described by a non-linear transport equation that contains terms responsible for the growth of phytoplankton aggregates, their fragmentation and coagulation. We study asymptotic behaviour of moments of the…
