Intermediate-Level Crossings of a First-Passage Path

, 2015
We investigate some simple and surprising properties of a one-dimensional Brownian trajectory with diffusion coefficient $D$ that starts at the origin and reaches $X$ either: (i) at time $T$ or (ii) for the first time at time $T$.

The Ising Spin Glass in dimension four

, 2015
The critical behaviors of the bimodal and Gaussian Ising spin glass (ISG) models in dimension four are studied through extensive numerical simulations, and from an analysis of high temperature series expansion (HTSE) data of Klein {\it et al.} (1991 ...

Atomistic Mechanisms Triggered by Joule Heating Effects in Metallic Cu‐Bi Nanowires for Spintronics

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bi doped metallic Cu nanowires are promising for spintronics thanks to the stabilization of a giant spin Hall effect. However, heat resulting from current injection forces Bi to leave solution, forcing segregation into monoatomic decorations which evolve into coherent crystalline aggregates.

Weibull Distribution with Linear Shape Function

Applied Sciences
The paper is intended to put forward a modified Weibull-type lifetime model. Modification consists of replacing the shape parameter of the original Weibull model with the shape function. It is self-evidently a novelty among lifetime models.

Is bimodality a sufficient condition for a first order phase transition existence?

, 2013
Here we present two explicit counterexamples to the widely spread beliefs about an exclusive role of bimodality as the first order phase transition signal.

Matrix Stiffness Governs Fibroblasts’ Regulation of Gingival Immune Homeostasis

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study identifies a “mechano‐epigenetic” checkpoint in which matrix stiffness governs the immune responses of gingival fibroblasts. Using biomimetic hydrogels and human gingival explants, the studies revealed that restoring extracellular matrix stiffness actively suppresses inflammation via non‐canonical NF‐κB signaling and DNA methylation ...

What Can be Learned Studying the Distribution of the Biggest Fragment ? [PDF]

, 2007
In the canonical formalism of statistical physics, a signature of a first order phase transition for finite systems is the bimodal distribution of an order parameter.

Recent Progress on Flexible Multimodal Sensors: Decoupling Strategies, Fabrication and Applications

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
In this review, we establish a tripartite decoupling framework for flexible multimodal sensors, which elucidates the underlying principles of signal crosstalk and their solutions through material design, structural engineering, and AI algorithms. We also demonstrate its potential applications across environmental monitoring, health monitoring, human ...

WHY NS AND BH MASS DISTRIBUTION IS BIMODAL?

Odessa Astronomical Publications, 2017
The observed mass distribution for the compact remnants of massive stars (neutron stars and black holes) and its relationship to possible mechanisms for the ejection of the envelopes of type II and Ib/c supernovae is analyzed.
