Neutrino telescopes under the ocean: The case for ANTARES [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Neutrino telescopes offer an alternative way to explore the Universe. Several projects are in operation or under construction. A detector under the ocean is very promising because of the very accurate angular resolution that it provides.

Stochastic Impedance

open access: yes, 2019
The concept of impedance, which characterises the current response to a periodical driving, is introduced in the context of stochastic transport. In particular, we calculate the impedance for an exactly solvable model, namely the stochastic transport of ...

Succession of cable bacteria and electric currents in marine sediment [PDF]

open access: yesThe ISME Journal, 2014
Abstract Filamentous Desulfobulbaceae have been reported to conduct electrons over centimetre-long distances, thereby coupling oxygen reduction at the surface of marine sediment to sulphide oxidation in sub-surface layers. To understand how these ‘cable bacteria’ establish and sustain electric conductivity, we followed a population for ...

Queuing models for abstracting interactions in Bacterial communities

open access: yes, 2016
Microbial communities play a significant role in bioremediation,plant growth,human and animal digestion,global elemental cycles including the carbon-cycle,and water treatment.They are also posed to be the engines of renewable energy via microbial fuel ...

Marine microbial fuel cell : use of stainless steel electrodes as anode and cathode materials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Numerous biocorrosion studies have stated that biofilms formed in aerobic seawater induce an efficient catalysis of the oxygen reduction on stainless steels. This property was implemented here for the first time in a marine microbial fuel cell (MFC).

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting

NEMO: A Project for a km$^3$ Underwater Detector for Astrophysical Neutrinos in the Mediterranean Sea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The status of the project is described: the activity on long term characterization of water optical and oceanographic parameters at the Capo Passero site candidate for the Mediterranean km$^3$ neutrino telescope; the feasibility study; the physics ...

Smart, Bio‐Inspired Polymers and Bio‐Based Molecules Modified by Zwitterionic Motifs to Design Next‐Generation Materials for Medical Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bio‐based and (semi‐)synthetic zwitterion‐modified novel materials and fully synthetic next‐generation alternatives show the importance of material design for different biomedical applications. The zwitterionic character affects the physiochemical behavior of the material and deepens the understanding of chemical interaction mechanisms within the ...

Cable pili and the associated 22 kDa adhesin contribute to Burkholderia cenocepacia persistence in vivo. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Infection by Burkholderia cenocepacia in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients is associated with poor clinical prognosis. Previously, we demonstrated that one of the highly transmissible strains, BC7, expresses cable pili and the associated 22 kDa adhesin, both

Comparative electric and ultrastructural studies of cable bacteria reveal new components of conduction machinery

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2023
Cable bacteria encompass at least two genera, and they are known to vary greatly in habitat preferences and filament thickness. We systematically investigated variations and similarities in cellular structures and electrical properties of different cable
