Microwave second-harmonic response of ceramic MgB2 samples
2005
Nonlinear microwave response of different ceramic MgB2 samples has been investigated by the technique of second-harmonic emission. The second-harmonic signal has been investigated as a function of temperature, DC magnetic field and input microwave power. The attention has mainly been devoted to the response at low magnetic fields, where nonlinear processes arising from motion of Abrikosov fluxons are ineffective. The results show that different mechanisms are responsible for the nonlinear response in the different ranges of temperature. At low temperatures, the nonlinear response is due to processes involving weak links. At temperatures close to Tc, a further contribution to the harmonic em…
Effects of Weak Links in the Nonlinear Microwave Response of MgB2 Superconductor
2006
We report experimental results of second-harmonic (SH) response at microwave frequency in several ceramic MgB2 samples, prepared by different methods. The SH signal has been investigated as a function of the temperature and DC magnetic field. The investigation has been carried out at low magnetic fields, where nonlinear processes arising from motion of Abrikosov fluxons are ineffective. We show that the low-temperature SH emission is ascribable to processes involving weak links. Comparison among the peculiarities of the SH signal radiated by the different samples shows that the presence of weak links strongly depends on the sample preparation method, as well as the purity and morphology of …

Modeling of surface structure formation after laser irradiation
2011
The Stefan problem in a semi-infinite media under laser irradiation is considered. It is related to the melting and solidification processes, resulting in certain surface structure after the solidification. A simple model, as well as a more sophisticated one is proposed to describe this process. The latter model allows us to calculate the surface profile by solving a system of two nonlinear differential equations, if the shape of the solid-liquid interface is known. It has to be found as a solution of two-phases Stefan problem. The results of example calculations by the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method are presented, assuming that the solid-liquid interface has a parabolic shape. The calcula…
Digit replacement: A generic map for nonlinear dynamical systems
2016
A simple discontinuous map is proposed as a generic model for nonlinear dynamical systems. The orbit of the map admits exact solutions for wide regions in parameter space and the method employed (digit manipulation) allows the mathematical design of useful signals, such as regular or aperiodic oscillations with specific waveforms, the construction of complex attractors with nontrivial properties as well as the coexistence of different basins of attraction in phase space with different qualitative properties. A detailed analysis of the dynamical behavior of the map suggests how the latter can be used in the modeling of complex nonlinear dynamics including, e.g., aperiodic nonchaotic attracto…
New construction of algebro-geometric solutions to the Camassa-Holm equation and their numerical evaluation
2011
An independent derivation of solutions to the Camassa-Holm equation in terms of multi-dimensional theta functions is presented using an approach based on Fay's identities. Reality and smoothness conditions are studied for these solutions from the point of view of the topology of the underlying real hyperelliptic surface. The solutions are studied numerically for concrete examples, also in the limit where the surface degenerates to the Riemann sphere, and where solitons and cuspons appear.
New insight into the aptamer conformation and aptamer/protein interaction by surface-enhanced Raman scattering and multivariate statistical analysis
2021
International audience; We study the interaction between one aptamer and its analyte (the MnSOD protein) by the combination of surface-enhanced Raman scattering and multivariate statistical analysis. We observe the aptamer structure and its evolution during the interaction under different experimental conditions (in air or in buffer). Through the spectral treatment by principal component analysis of a large set of SERS data, we were able to probe the aptamer conformations and orientations relative to the surface assuming that the in-plane nucleoside modes are selectively enhanced. We demonstrate that the aptamer orientation and thus its flexibility rely strongly on the presence of a spacer …
A proposed equation of correlation for the study of thermodynamic properties (density, viscosity, surface tension and refractive index) of liquid bin…
2009
Abstract The literature on the physicochemical properties of liquid binary mixtures shows that most such systems exhibit nonlinear behavior. As a result, rigorous data and equations capable of affording a reliable estimate of the behavior of such mixtures are needed. The present study offers an equation of correlation providing a reliable estimation of the properties (density, viscosity, surface tension and refractive index) of binary mixtures of liquids as a function of mole fraction. In order to assess the validity of the proposed equation, the latter has been applied to reference binary mixtures, and comparisons have been made of the experimental values of the studied magnitudes versus t…

Dynamics of phase domains in the Swift-Hohenberg equation
1998
Abstract We analyze analytically and numerically the dynamics of phase domains in the Swift-Hohenberg equation. For negative or small positive detuning domains contract and disappear. A large positive detuning leads to dendritic growth of the domains, and the formation of labyrinth structures. Intermediate detuning results in stable circular domains - the localized structures of the Swift-Hohenberg equation. The predicted phenomena should occur in parametrically driven chemical, hydrodynamical, and nonlinear optical systems.
