A Coupled Quantum Otto Cycle

open access: yes, 2010
We study the 1-d isotropic Heisenberg model of two spin-1/2 systems as a quantum heat engine. The engine undergoes a four-step Otto cycle where the two adiabatic branches involve changing the external magnetic field at a fixed value of the coupling ...

Function‐driven design of a surrogate interleukin‐2 receptor ligand

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Interleukin (IL)‐2 signaling can be achieved and precisely fine‐tuned through the affinity, distance, and orientation of the heterodimeric receptors with their ligands. We designed a biased IL‐2 surrogate ligand that selectively promotes effector T and natural killer cell activation and differentiation. Interleukin (IL) receptors play a pivotal role in

STRING QUARTET BY V. CIOLAC: FIGURATIVE DRAMATURGY AND ITS INFLUENCE ON THE THEMATIC DEVELOPMENT PROCESS AND THE CYCLE STRUCTURE

open access: yesStudiul Artelor şi Culturologie: Istorie, Teorie, Practică, 2021
The music of the lyrical-dramatic composition conveys a wide spectrum of feelings and impressions connected with the philosophical theme of «Life and Fate». This article examines the problem of the specific realization of the author’s original idea aimed

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.

Thinning of the Sun's magnetic layer: the peculiar solar minimum could have been predicted

open access: yes, 2012
The solar magnetic activity cycle causes changes in the Sun on timescales that are relevant to human lifetimes. The minimum in solar activity that preceded the current solar cycle (cycle 24) was deeper and quieter than any other recent minimum.

Multiple ETS family transcription factors bind mutant p53 via distinct interaction regions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mutant p53 gain‐of‐function is thought to be mediated by interaction with other transcription factors. We identify multiple ETS transcription factors that can bind mutant p53 and found that this interaction can be promoted by a PXXPP motif. ETS proteins that strongly bound mutant p53 were upregulated in ovarian cancer compared to ETS proteins that ...

Life Cycle Assessment Practices: Benchmarking Selected European Automobile Manufacturers [PDF]

open access: yes
With the rise of environmental concerns in the general public, re-appropriated by influential politicians, Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) has become a widely used set of tools for the management of all impacts on environment by industrial products.
