Experiments have shown that the shock sensitivity of a single crystal pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN) has a strong dependence on the crystal orientation. The ignition and growth (I & G) model has been widely used in studies of the shock initiation of

This study employed integrated analyses of chloroplast DNA and nuclear genes, which revealed significant divergence in genetic structure between the two genomic compartments in Xinjiang wild apricots, reflecting complex evolutionary processes influenced by natural selection, genetic drift, and gene flow. Population history analyses indicated an absence

Pasteurella multocida Heddleston serovar 3 and 4 strains share a common lipopolysaccharide biosynthesis locus but display both inter- and intrastrain lipopolysaccharide heterogeneity [PDF]
Pasteurella multocida is a Gram-negative multispecies pathogen and the causative agent of fowl cholera, a serious disease of poultry which can present in both acute and chronic forms. The major outer membrane component lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is both an

Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Weak Detonations [PDF]
Detonation of a three-dimensional reactive non-isotropic molecular crystal is modeled using molecular dynamics simulations. The detonation process is initiated by an impulse, followed by the creation of a stable fast reactive shock wave.
