Limited Perturbation of a DPPC Bilayer by Fluorescent Lipid Probes: A Molecular Dynamics Study

Kavli Affiliate: Gerald W. Feigenson | First 5 Authors: Frederick A. Heberle, David G. Ackerman, Gerald W. Feigenson, , | Summary: The presence and the properties of lipid bilayer nanometer-scale domains might be important for understanding the membranes of living cells. We used molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to investigate perturbations of a small patch of […]

Application of Mathematical Optimization Procedures to Intervention Effects in Structural Equation Models

Kavli Affiliate: Atsushi Yagishita | First 5 Authors: Kentaro Tanaka, Atsushi Yagishita, Masami Miyakawa, , | Summary: For a given statistical model, it often happens that it is necessary to intervene the model to reduce the variances of the output variables. In structural equation models, this can be done by changing the values of the […]

An Improved Dynamical Model for the Microquasar XTE J1550-564

Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey F. Miller | First 5 Authors: Jerome A. Orosz, James F. Steiner, Jeffrey E. McClintock, Manuel A. P. Torres, Ronald A. Remillard | Summary: We present an improved dynamical model of the X-ray binary and microquasar XTE J1550-564 based on new moderate-resolution optical spectroscopy and near-infrared photometry. By combining our new radial […]

Circle-valued Morse theory for complex hyperplane arrangements

Kavli Affiliate: Toshitake Kohno | First 5 Authors: Toshitake Kohno, Andrei Pajitnov, , , | Summary: Let A be an essential complex hyperplane arrangement in an n-dimensional complex vector space V. Let H denote the union of the hyperplanes, and M denote the complement to H in V. We develop the real-valued and circle-valued Morse […]
