Proposal of a Checking Parameter in the Simulated Annealing Method Applied to the Spin Glass Model [PDF]
We propose a checking parameter utilizing the breaking of the Jarzynski equality in the simulated annealing method using the Monte Carlo method. This parameter is based on the Jarzynski equality.

Plastic versus glass capillaries for rapid-cycle PCR
Rapid-cycle PCR uses fast temperature transitions and minimal denaturation and annealing times of “0” s to complete 30 cycles in 10 to 30 min. The most popular platform amplifies samples in glass capillaries arranged around a carousel with circulating ...

Structure-dynamics relationships in cryogenically deformed bulk metallic glass
Understanding of the atomic-scale mechanisms of rejuvenation of bulk metallic glass still remains unclear. Here, using configurational entropy derived from X-ray experiments, authors show a clear picture of the relaxation process during annealing of a ...
