Thermal equilibrium of a macroscopic quantum system in a pure state [PDF]
Phys. Rev. Lett. 115, 100402 (2015), 2015 We consider the notion of thermal equilibrium for an individual closed macroscopic quantum system in a pure state, i.e., described by a wave function. The macroscopic properties in thermal equilibrium of such a system, determined by its wave function, must be the same as those obtained from thermodynamics, e.g., spatial uniformity of temperature and ...

Sorting of Chiral Microswimmers [PDF]
Soft Matter 9, 6347-6542, 2013, 2012 Microscopic swimmers, e.g., chemotactic bacteria and cells, are capable of directed motion by exerting a force on their environment. For asymmetric microswimmers, e.g., bacteria, spermatozoa and many artificial active colloidal particles, a torque is also present leading in two dimensions to circular motion and in three dimensions to helicoidal motion ...

Behavioral modulation of the coexistence between Apis melifera and Varroa destructor: A defense against colony colapse disorder? [PDF]
, 2015 Colony Collapse Disorder has become a global problem for beekeepers and for the crops which depend on bee polination. Multiple factors are known to increase the risk of colony colapse, and the ectoparasitic mite Varroa destructor that parasitizes honey bees is among the main threats to colony health.
