Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Probability in physics: stochastic, statistical, quantum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
I review the role of probability in contemporary physics and the origin of probabilistic time asymmetry, beginning with the pre-quantum case (both stochastic mechanics and classical statistical mechanics) but concentrating on quantum theory. I argue that

Statistical mechanics of multi-index matching problems with site disorder [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We study the statistical mechanics of multi-index matching problems where the quenched disorder is a geometric site disorder rather than a link disorder.

Double quantum dot coupled to a quantum point contact: a stochastic thermodynamics approach

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2015
We study the nonequilibrium properties of an electronic circuit composed of a double quantum dot (DQD) channel capacitively coupled to a quantum point contact (QPC) within the framework of stochastic thermodynamics.

Metastability in statistical mechanics. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1982
In this dissertation we deal mainly with the problem of metastability in statistical mechanics. In Chapter I we review the analytic aspects of metastability. Taking stability as the basic concept Sewell defined metastable states to be those states which are locally but not globally stable. For a hard core continuous system the pressure functions of the

Statistical Mechanics of Combinatorial Auctions [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2006
Combinatorial auctions are formulated as frustrated lattice gases on sparse random graphs, allowing the determination of the optimal revenue by methods of statistical physics. Transitions between computationally easy and hard regimes are found and interpreted in terms of the geometric structure of the space of solutions.

Structural insights and therapeutic targets in Acinetobacter baumannii capsule biosynthesis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Hypervirulent KL49 A. baumannii's capsular polysaccharide contains the nonulosonic acid 8‐epi‐Leg5,7Ac2, synthesized by epimerization via ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC. Crystal structures of ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC reveal their role in CMP‐Leg5,7Ac2 synthesis and regioselective C8 epimerization.

Statistical mechanics of neural networks

open access: yes, 1995
We investigate five different problems in the field of the statistical mechanics of neural networks. The first three problems involve attractor neural networks that optimise particular cost functions for storage of static memories as attractors of the ...

Relativistic Statistical Mechanics vs. Relativistic Thermodynamics

open access: yesEntropy, 2011
Based on a covariant theory of equilibrium Thermodynamics, a Statistical Relativistic Mechanics is developed for the non-interacting case. Relativistic Thermodynamics and Jüttner Relativistic Distribution Function in a moving frame are obtained by using ...

Statistical mechanics of Arakawa’s discretizations [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Computational Physics, 2007
The results of statistical analysis of simulation data obtained from long time integrations of geophysical fluid models greatly depend on the conservation properties of the numerical discretization used. This is illustrated for quasi-geostrophic flow with topographic forcing, for which a well established statistical mechanics exist.
