HO x Regeneration in the Oxidation of Isoprene III: Theoretical Study of the key Isomerisation of the Z -Δ-hydroxy-peroxy Isoprene Radicals
(WILEY-VCH Verlag, 2010-12-17)
As a sequel to our communication on a proposed new isoprene oxidation mechanism aiming to rationalize the unexpectedly high OH and HO 2 levels observed in isoprene-rich areas (J. Peeters, T. L. Nguyen, L. Vereecken, Phys. ...
Current oscillations generated by precipitate formation in the mixing zone between two solutions inside a nanopore
(2010-11)
Unlike biological protein pores in lipid membranes, nanopores fabricated in synthetic materials can withstand a wide range of environmental conditions including the presence of organic solvents. This capability expands the ...
Adiabatic potentials for Rydberg atoms in a ponderomotive optical lattice
(2010-02)
We calculate the adiabatic potentials and adiabatic wavefunctions of Rydberg atoms in a one-dimensional ponderomotive optical lattice. All lattice-induced couplings between the degenerate high-angular-momentum Rydberg ...
Accurate calibration of test mass displacement in the LIGO interferometers
(2010-04)
We describe three fundamentally different methods we have applied to calibrate the test mass displacement actuators to search for systematic errors in the calibration of the LIGO gravitational-wave detectors. The actuation ...
Glycoprotein analysis using protein microarrays and mass spectrometry
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2010-09)
Protein glycosylation plays an important role in a multitude of biological processes such as cell–cell recognition, growth, differentiation, and cell death. It has been shown that specific glycosylation changes are key in ...
Modeling transient aspects of coherence-driven electron transport
(2010-04)
Non-equilibrium Green's function formalism (NEGF) by employing time-dependent (TD) perturbation theory is used to solve the electronic equations of motion of model systems under potential biasing conditions. The time ...
A generalized theory of DNA looping and cyclization
(2010-03)
We have developed a generalized semi-analytic approach for efficiently computing cyclization and looping J factors of DNA under arbitrary binding constraints. Many biological systems involving DNA-protein interactions ...
Ion irradiation-induced bimodal surface morphology changes in InSb
(2010-08)
High-energy ion irradiation of InSb results in the formation of bimodal surface structures, namely microscale hillock-like structures fully composed of nanoscale fibers. Analysis of the surface structures by a wide range ...
Reduction of neurovascular damage resulting from microelectrode insertion into the cerebral cortex using
(2010-08)
Penetrating neural probe technologies allow investigators to record electrical signals in the brain. The implantation of probes causes acute tissue damage, partially due to vasculature disruption during probe implantation. ...
Lecture archiving on a larger scale at the University of Michigan and CERN
(2010-04)
The ATLAS Collaboratory Project at the University of Michigan has been a leader in the area of collaborative tools since 1999. Its activities include the development of standards, software and hardware tools for lecture ...
