Quantum and classical echoes in scattering systems described by simple Smale horseshoes
, 2001 We explore the quantum scattering of systems classically described by binary and other low order Smale horseshoes, in a stage of development where the stable island associated with the inner periodic orbit is large, but chaos around this island is well ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Pre‐analytical handling critically determines liquid biopsy performance. This study defines practical best‐practice conditions for cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) and extracellular vesicle–derived DNA (evDNA), showing how processing time, storage conditions, tube type, and plasma input volume affect DNA integrity and mutation detection.

Effect of the curvature and the {\beta} parameter on the nonlinear dynamics of a drift tearing magnetic island [PDF]
, 2009 We present numerical simulation studies of 2D reduced MHD equations investigating the impact of the electronic \beta parameter and of curvature effects on the nonlinear evolution of drift tearing islands. We observe a bifurcation phenomenon that leads to
