Critical-Point Symmetry in a Finite System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
At a critical point of a second order phase transition the intrinsic energy surface is flat and there is no stable minimum value of the deformation.

Critical-Point Nuclei

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2005
It has been suggested that a change of nuclear shape may be described in terms of a phase transition and that specific nuclei may lie close to the critical point of the transition. Analytical descriptions of such critical‐point nuclei have been introduced recently and they are described briefly.

Plasmodium falciparum gametogenesis essential protein 1 (GEP1) is a transmission‐blocking target

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study shows Plasmodium falciparum GEP1 is vital for activating sexual stages of malarial parasites even independently of a mosquito factor. Knockout parasites completely fail gamete formation even when a phosphodiesterase inhibitor is added. Two single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (V241L and S263P) are found in 12%–20% of field samples.

Perspective: Crossing the Widom line in no man's land: Experiments, simulations, and the location of the liquid-liquid critical point in supercooled water.

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Physics, 2018
The origin of liquid water's anomalous behavior continues to be a subject of interest and debate. One possible explanation is the liquid-liquid critical point hypothesis, which proposes that supercooled water separates into two distinct liquids at low ...

Abrupt change of the superconducting gap structure at the nematic critical point in FeSe1−xSx [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2017
Significance Electronic nematicity that spontaneously breaks the rotational symmetry of the underlying crystal lattice has been a growing issue in high-temperature superconductivity of iron pnictides/chalcogenides and cuprates.

Biophysical analysis of angiotensin II and amyloid‐β cross‐interaction in aggregation and membrane disruption

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Angiotensin II (AngII), a neuropeptide, interacts with amyloid‐β (Aβ), a key player in Alzheimer's disease. This study reveals that AngII reduces Aβ aggregation and membrane disruption in vitro. Biophysical assays and molecular modeling suggest AngII binds disordered Aβ forms, potentially modulating early amyloidogenic events and contributing to ...

Influence of Backside Energy Leakages from Hadronic Calorimeters on Fluctuation Measures in Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collisions

open access: yesUniverse, 2019
The phase diagram of the strongly interacting matter is the main research subject for different current and future experiments in high-energy physics. System size and energy scan programs aim to find a possible critical point.

Susceptibilities near the QCD (tri)critical point

open access: yes, 2006
Based on the proper-time renormalization group approach, the scalar and the quark number susceptibilities in the vicinity of possible critical end points of the hadronic phase diagram are investigated in the two-flavor quark-meson model. After discussing

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Critical points approaches for multiple solutions of a quasilinear periodic boundary value problem

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Qualitative Theory of Differential Equations
Optimization problems are omnipresent in the mathematical modeling of real world systems and cover a very extensive range of applications becoming apparent in all branches of Economics, Finance, Materials Science, Astronomy, Physics, Structural and ...
