How Well Can We Infer Selection Benefits and Mutation Rates from Allele Frequencies?
Entropy, 2023 Experimentalists observe allele frequency distributions and try to infer mutation rates and selection coefficients. How easy is this? We calculate limits to their ability in the context of the Wright-Fisher model by first finding the maximal amount of ...

Spin-Exchange Term in the Solvent Equation of State Near the Critical Point for Electron Transfer Reactions [PDF]
, 2000 Phenomenological Equations of State (EOS) for fluids near their critical point have been obtained using literature compression factor data, Zc = Pc Vc/(n R Tc) = 0.40 to 0.10 in Table I (Pc, Vc/n, Tc are the pressure, volume per n mole, and the absolute ...

Clarifying the quantum mechanical origin of the covalent chemical bond
Nature Communications, 2020 The origin of the covalent H–H bond is understood to be driven by kinetic energy lowering. Here the authors show this is not the case for bonds between heavier elements likely due to the presence of core electrons, and that constructive quantum ...
