Imaging proteins at the truly single-molecule level

Kavli Affiliate: Stephan Rauschenbach | Summary:Imaging single proteins has been a long-standing ambition for advancing various fields in natural science, as for instance structural biology, biophysics and molecular nanotechnology. In particular, revealing the distinct conformations of an individual protein is of utmost importance. Here, we show the imaging of individual proteins and protein complexes by […]

Nanoscale assembly processes revealed in the nacroprismatic transition zone of Pinna nobilis mollusc shells

Kavli Affiliate: Lara A. Estroff | Summary:Intricate biomineralization processes in molluscs engineer hierarchical structures with meso-, nano-, and atomic architectures that give the final composite material exceptional mechanical strength and optical iridescence on the macroscale. This multiscale biological assembly inspires new synthetic routes to complex materials. Our investigation of the prism-nacre interface reveals nanoscale details […]

Status Report of the DPHEP Collaboration: A Global Effort for Sustainable Data Preservation in High Energy Physics

Kavli Affiliate: Concetta Cartaro | Summary:Data from High Energy Physics (HEP) experiments are collected with significant financial and human effort and are mostly unique. An inter-experimental study group on HEP data preservation and long-term analysis was convened as a panel of the International Committee for Future Accelerators (ICFA). The group was formed by large collider-based […]

Orthogonal pairs and mutually unbiased bases

Kavli Affiliate: Alexey Bondal | Summary:The paper is devoted to representation theoretic and algebraic geometric aspects of the theory of orthogonal decompositions of Lie algebra sl(n) into Cartan subalgebras orthogonal with respect to Killing form and the relevant theory of mutually unbiased bases. We describe the main steps of our proof for the existence of […]

Efficient and accurate modeling of multi-wavelength propagation in SOAs: a generalized coupled-mode approach

Kavli Affiliate: Larry Coldren | Summary:We present a model for multi-wavelength mixing in semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) based on coupled-mode equations. The proposed model applies to all kinds of SOA structures, takes into account the longitudinal dependence of carrier density caused by saturation, it accommodates an arbitrary functional dependencies of the material gain and carrier […]

Repeated transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in nondepressed reduces levels of reported negative affects from daily stressors

Kavli Affiliate: Simon Newstead | Summary:Negative emotional responses to the daily life stresses have cumulative effects which, in turn, impose wide-ranging negative constraints on emotional well being and neurocognitive performance (Kalueff:2007cp, Charles:2013eq, Nadler:2010hk). Crucial cognitive functions such as memory and problem solving, as well more short term emotional responses (e.g., anticipation of- and response to- […]
