Noise-Driven Mechanism for Pattern Formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We extend the mechanism for noise-induced phase transitions proposed by Ibanes et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 87, 020601-1 (2001)] to pattern formation phenomena. In contrast with known mechanisms for pure noise-induced pattern formation, this mechanism is not

An Isocurvature Mechanism for Structure Formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
We examine a novel mechanism for structure formation involving initial number density fluctuations between relativistic species, one of which then undergoes a temporary downward variation in its equation of state and generates superhorizon-scale density ...

The mechanism of vesicle formation [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1988
Phospholipid molecules exhibit amphiphilic properties and therefore they aggregate either in their crystalline state or in polar solvents into ordered structures with typical lyotropic liquid crystalline symmetries (de Gennes, 1974). At high lipid concentrations in water these are predominantly lamellar phases (Luzzati, 1968), while in aqueous ...

Formation of Kuiper Belt Binaries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The discovery that a substantial fraction of Kuiper Belt objects (KBOs) exists in binaries with wide separations and roughly equal masses, has motivated a variety of new theories explaining their formation. Goldreich et al.

Ice condensation as a planet formation mechanism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We show that condensation is an efficient particle growth mechanism, leading to growth beyond decimeter-sized pebbles close to an ice line in protoplanetary discs. As coagulation of dust particles is frustrated by bouncing and fragmentation, condensation

Young stars at large distances from the galactic plane: mechanisms of formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We have collected from the literature a list of early-type stars, situated at large distances from the galactic plane, for which evidence of youth seems convincing.

Mechanisms of Stone Formation [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Reviews in Bone and Mineral Metabolism, 2011
We have reviewed the general mechanisms involved in kidney stone formation, with reference to those composed of calcium oxalate or phosphate, uric acid, and cystine. These processes include nucleation of individual crystals, aggregation or secondary nucleation to produce small intrarenal multicrystalline aggregates, fixation within the kidney, and ...

Novel Approach to Prepare Magnesium and Mg-Al Alloy from Magnesia by Using the Closed Microwave Aluminothermic Method

open access: yesMetals, 2023
Herein, we report a novel approach to obtaining magnesium and nanocrystal Mg-Al alloy from magnesia using a closed microwave aluminothermic method in order to solve the problems of high energy consumption, high pollution, and low productivity in the ...

On the mechanism of ZDDP antiwear film formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Zinc dialkyldithiophosphate additives are used to control wear and inhibit oxidation in almost all engine oils as well as many other types of lubricant. They limit wear primarily by forming a thick, protective, phosphate glass-based tribofilm on rubbing ...

Formation mechanism of a disastrous groundwater inrush occurred at the Xinjing coal mine in Datong, Shanxi province, China

open access: yesGeomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2020
On May 18, 2006, a disastrous groundwater inrush occurred at the Xinjing coal mine in Datong, Shanxi province, China. Great effort was taken during the post-accident rescue.
