The phase diagram of neutral quark matter: The effect of neutrino trapping [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We study the effect of neutrino trapping on the phase diagram of dense, locally neutral three-flavor quark matter within the framework of a Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Numerical Study of the Negative Skin Friction (NSF) of Large-Diameter Rock-Socketed Monopiles for Offshore Wind Turbines Incorporating Lateral Loading Effects

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Large-diameter rock-socketed monopiles supporting offshore wind turbines in soft clay strata face significant geotechnical risks from negative skin friction (NFS) induced by construction surcharges.

The Emergence of a Neutral Wind Region in the Orbital Plane of Symbiotic Binaries during Their Outbursts

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
Accretion of mass onto a white dwarf (WD) in a binary system can lead to stellar explosions. If a WD accretes from stellar wind of a distant evolved giant in a symbiotic binary, it can undergo occasional outbursts in which it brightens by several ...

Binding energy of shallow donors in a quantum well in the presence of a tilted magnetic field

open access: yes, 2004
We present results of variational calculations of the binding energy of a neutral donor in a quantum well in the presence of a magnetic field tilted relative to the QW plane.

Chromomagnetic instability in two-flavor quark matter at nonzero temperature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We calculate the effective potential of the 2SC/g2SC phases including vector condensates ($$ and $$) and study the gluonic phase and the single plane-wave Larkin-Ovchinnikov-Fulde-Ferrell state at nonzero temperature. Our analysis is performed within the

Mechanisms of parasite‐mediated disruption of brain vessels

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Parasites can affect the blood vessels of the brain, often causing serious neurological problems. This review explains how different parasites interact with and disrupt these vessels, what this means for brain health, and why these processes matter. Understanding these mechanisms may help us develop better ways to prevent or treat brain infections in ...

Progressive Collapse Analysis of Intact and Damaged Ships under Unsymmetrical Bending

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
This study examined the hull girder strength of intact and damaged ships by adopting the incremental-iterative method for progressive collapse analysis, which was extended to the general case of the unsymmetrical bending of beams with an arbitrary cross ...
