Microscopic mechanism of ultrashort-pulse laser ablation of metals: a molecular dynamics study incorporating electronic entropy effects [PDF]
, 2023 The microscopic mechanism of metal ablation induced by ultrashort laser pulse irradiation is investigated. A two-temperature model scheme combined with molecular dynamics (TTM-MD) is developed to incorporate electronic entropy effects into the simulation of metal ablation while satisfying the energy conservation law.

Micrometeorological processes driving snow ablation in an Alpine catchment [PDF]
, 2011 Mountain snow covers typically become patchy over the course of a melting season. The snow pattern during melt is mainly governed by the end of winter snow depth distribution and the local energy balance.

Growth rate and the cutoff wavelength of the Darrieus-Landau instability in laser ablation [PDF]
Phys. Rev. E 80, 046403 (2009), 2009 The main characteristics of the linear Darrieus-Landau instability in the laser ablation flow are investigated. The dispersion relation of the instability is found numerically as a solution to an eigenvalue stability problem, taking into account the continuous structure of the flow.

Advanced ablation strategies for management of post-surgical atrial arrhythmias. [PDF]
, 2013 Post-surgical arrhythmias include a wide range of arrhythmias occurring late after cardiac surgery and represent a complex substrate for catheter ablation either because of extended scar and remodeling or because of limited access to the area of interest.

O-23 HEPATITIS B VIRUS STATUS OF ORGAN DONORS IN ARGENTINA
Annals of Hepatology, 2023 Introduction and Objectives: Argentina is considered an area with a low prevalence of hepatitis B virus (HBV). However, the real prevalence of the disease is unknown. We aimed to study the prevalence of HBV in potential cadaveric donors.
