Efficiency at maximum power of a laser quantum heat engine enhanced by noise-induced coherence. [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2018
Quantum coherence has been demonstrated in various systems including organic solar cells and solid state devices. In this article, we report the lower and upper bounds for the performance of quantum heat engines determined by the efficiency at maximum ...

Correlations of heat and charge currents in quantum-dot thermoelectric engines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We analyze the noise properties of both electric charge and heat currents as well as their correlations in a quantum-dot based thermoelectric engine. The engine is a three-terminal conductor with crossed heat and charge flows where heat fluctuations can ...

The apo LETM1 F‐EF‐hand adopts a closed conformation that underlies a multi‐modal sensory role in mitochondria

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present the first solution structure of the Ca2+‐depleted LETM1 F‐EF‐hand through a D676A/N678A Ca2+ binding‐deficient mutant, revealing a closed hydrophobic cleft caused by a unique F1‐helix pivot. The apo LETM1 F‐EF‐hand exhibits regiospecific hot and cold unfolding, sensitivity to physiological pH changes and potential for promiscuous heterotypic

2D-statement simulation of thermogasdynamic processes in a rotary-blade engine with external heat supply

open access: yesSt. Petersburg Polytechnical University Journal: Physics and Mathematics
To analyze the characteristics of a rotor-blade engine with external heat supply, a 2D model of this mechanism is considered. The simulation took into account the movement of the working chambers of the engine and the change in their shape.

Critical-point behavior of a measurement-based quantum heat engine [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2018
We study how a quantum heat engine performs across the critical value of an external parameter, pertaining to the quantum phase transition. Considering a two-ion system subjected to a magnetic field, we show that the system performs in a quantum Otto ...

Cellular liquid biopsy provides unique chances for disease monitoring, preclinical model generation and therapy adjustment in rare salivary gland cancer patients

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We quantified and cultured circulating tumor cells (CTCs) of 62 patients with various cancer types and generated CTC‐derived tumoroid models from two salivary gland cancer patients. Cellular liquid biopsy‐derived information enabled molecular genetic assessment of systemic disease heterogeneity and functional testing for therapy selection in both ...

Out-of-equilibrium operation of a quantum heat engine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Realistic quantum heat engines are operated at finite cycle times and thus represent open quantum systems in non-equilibrium. Here, their full time evolution including control of both the work medium and thermal contact to reservoirs is simulated non ...

MET variants with activating N‐lobe mutations identified in hereditary papillary renal cell carcinomas still require ligand stimulation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
MET variants in the N‐lobe of the kinase domain, found in hereditary papillary renal cell carcinoma, require ligand stimulation to promote cell transformation, in contrast to other RTK variants. This suggests that HGF expression in the microenvironment is important for tumor growth in such patients. Their sensitivity to MET inhibitors opens the way for

Coupling of PZT Thin Films with Bimetallic Strip Heat Engines for Thermal Energy Harvesting

open access: yesSensors, 2018
A thermal energy harvester based on a double transduction mechanism and which converts thermal energy into electrical energy by means of piezoelectric membranes and bimetals, has previously been developed and widely presented in the literature In such a ...

Powerful energy harvester based on resonant-tunneling quantum wells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We analyze a heat engine based on a hot cavity connected via quantum wells to electronic reservoirs. We discuss the output power as well as the efficiency both in the linear and nonlinear regime.
