Negative tension of scroll wave filaments and turbulence in three-dimensional excitable media and application in cardiac dynamics [PDF]
Scroll waves are vortices that occur in three-dimensional excitable media. Scroll waves have been observed in a variety of systems including cardiac tissue, where they are associated with cardiac arrhythmias.

Cycling Cross-Bridges Contribute to Thin Filament Activation in Human Slow-Twitch Fibers
It has been shown that not only calcium but also strong binding myosin heads contribute to thin filament activation in isometrically contracting animal fast-twitch and cardiac muscle preparations. This behavior has not been studied in human muscle fibers

Dynamic star formation in the massive DR21 filament [PDF]
The formation of massive stars is a highly complex process in which it is not clear whether the star-forming gas is in global gravitational collapse or in an equilibrium state, supported by turbulence.

Interaction between current imbalance and magnetization in LHC cables [PDF]
The quality of the magnetic field in superconducting accelerator magnets is associated with the properties of the superconducting cable. Current imbalances due to coupling currents ¿I, as large as 100 A, are induced by spatial variations of the field ...
