We present a tensorial elastic network model (TNM) to describe the equilibrium fluctuations of proteins near their native fold structure. The model combines the anisotropic network model (ANM), bond bending elasticity, and backbone twist elasticity, and can predict both the isotropic fluctuations, similar to the Gauss…

Glutathione is a tripeptide capable of diminishing active oxygen species in living cells. The photocatalytic decomposition of glutathione and related amino acids in TiO(2) suspension was investigated with (1)H NMR spectroscopy. The results suggest that both glutathione in reduced and oxidative forms is adsorbed on the…

Monolayers of iron oxide nanoparticles of two different sizes, 9.6 nm and 16.5 nm, were fabricated through electrophoretic deposition. The arrangements of nanoparticles within the films were analyzed using the technique of Voronoi tessellations. These analyses indicated that the films possessed equivalent degrees of o…

Chemical grouting in underground coal mines is related closely to the interaction between grouting materials and coal. In the present work, a novel adhesive with high properties and low cost, waterglass/polyurethane, has been developed for coal bonding, based on a room-temperature-curing process. To obtain a direct an…

We apply the second Born approximation and the BBK methods to study triple-differential cross sections for the ionization of valence orbitals of a thymine molecule by electrons and positrons. Calculations have been performed for a coplanar geometry at an incident energy of 250 eV and an ejected-electron energy of 20 e…

Abstract We report on the effects of monolayer (ML) thick skin-like octadecanethiol (ODT, CH3[CH2]17SH) on type-II InAs/GaSb MWIR photodetectors. Circumventing the ageing effects of conventional sulfur compounds, we use ODT, a self-assembling, long molecular chain headed with a sulfur atom. Photodiodes coated with and…

Abstract We studied a mixture of C12E5 microemulsion with an end-capped hydrophobically modified polymer (C12–PEO–C12). The end-capped polymer adsorbed on the core of the microemulsion, changed the bending properties of the interface and connected two nearby droplets. The core size and width of the structure factor of…

We consider crystal and magnetic chiral structures for MnSi and isostructural metal silicides, where a complete set of structural and magnetic measurements allows us to define both magnetic and structural chiral configurations. We show that magnetic symmetry inherits chirality from the crystal structure. We derive, wi…
