A Simple Technique Based on a Single Optical Trap for the Determination of Bacterial Swimming Pattern [PDF]
Bacterial motility is associated to a wide range of biological processes and it plays a key role in the virulence of many pathogens. Here we describe a method to distinguish the dynamic properties of bacteria by analyzing the statistical functions ...

An escape of vector matter-wave soliton from a parabolic trap [PDF]
We show that a vector matter–wave soliton in a Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) loaded into an optical lattice can escape from a trap formed by a parabolic potential, resembling a Hawking emission.

Strong Optical Confinement between Non-periodic Flat Dielectric Gratings
We present a novel design of optical micro-cavity where the optical energy resides primarily in free space, therefore is readily accessible to foreign objects such as atoms, molecules, mechanical resonators, etc.

AbstractWildlife conservation requires methods to express the conservation status of assemblages in order to identify those of importance. Expressions of diversity and a number of different conservation status indices are widely used techniques for assessing assemblages. Some of these indices are based on species lists, while others use abundances.
