Intranukleäre virusähnliche Partikeln in einem Mammakarzinom
1969
By electron microscopic examination of a solid, chiefly scirrhous mammary cancer, 3 kinds of unusual nuclear inclusions were found: (a) Electron dense particles of a 54–80 nm diameter, whose outlines appear mainly hexagonal, which points at an icosahedral structure, (b) Clusters of granules with a diameter of 200–300a, respectively 300–400a, at whose circumference the larger particles appear, (c) Bundles of filaments in close association and continuous with the granules. In all 3 nuclear inclusions there are subunits of 40–45a. The comparison between these results and experiments published suggest that these nuclear inclusions are (a) virus particles, (b) virus at an early stage of developm…
Phase Behavior and Microscopic Transport Processes in Binary Metallic Alloys: Computer Simulation Studies
2009
In a binary liquid mixture, different kinds of phase transitions can occur that are associated with various mass transport phenomena in the liquid. First, there is the possibility that the liquid undergoes a liquid-liquid demixing transition [1]. Near the critical point of this transition, a slowing down of dynamic properties is observed which is characterized, e.g., by a vanishing interdiffusion coefficient at the critical point [2, 3]. Another possible phase transition is a first-order transition of the liquid into a crystalline structure. In this case, crystal nucleation and growth are limited by the diffusive transport in the liquid [1, 4]. In a binary liquid, crystal nucleation process…
Intrinsic localized excitations in nonlinear lattices: Heuristic explanation for the nature of polar nanoregions?
2010
The study is addressed to a topical problem of self-localization in condensed state with special emphasis on a class of complex oxides categorized as ferroelectric relaxors. Basically, their anomalous temperature response is associated with the dynamics of microscopic scale polar regions supported by somewhat artificial metastable configurations. A unified approach to the spontaneous emergence and stability of the polar nanoregions is assigned to intrinsic localized excitations in Hamiltonian lattices with nonlinearity and non-Gibbsian statistics as necessary and sufficient ingredients of the theory.
Microscopic theory for the glass transition in a system without static correlations
2002
We study the orientational dynamics of infinitely thin hard rods of length L, with the centers-of-mass fixed on a simple cubic lattice with lattice constant a.We approximate the influence of the surrounding rods onto dynamics of a pair of rods by introducing an effective rotational diffusion constant D(l),l=L/a. We get D(l) ~ [1-v(l)], where v(l) is given through an integral of a time-dependent torque-torque correlator of an isolated pair of rods. A glass transition occurs at l_c, if v(l_c)=1. We present a variational and a numerically exact evaluation of v(l).Close to l_c the diffusion constant decreases as D(l) ~ (l_c-l)^\gamma, with \gamma=1. Our approach predicts a glass transition in t…
Dynamics and Thermodynamics of Traffic Flow
2009
Application of thermodynamics to traffic flow is discussed. On a microscopic level, traffic flow is described by Bando’s optimal velocity model in terms of accelerating and decelerating forces. It allows us to introduce kinetic, potential, as well as a total energy, which is the internal energy of the car system in view of thermodynamics. The total energy is however not conserved, although it has a certain value in any of the two possible stationary states corresponding either to a fixed point or to a limit cycle solution in the space of headways and velocities.
Probabilistic description of traffic flow
2005
Abstract A stochastic description of traffic flow, called probabilistic traffic flow theory, is developed. The general master equation is applied to relatively simple models to describe the formation and dissolution of traffic congestions. Our approach is mainly based on spatially homogeneous systems like periodically closed circular rings without on- and off-ramps. We consider a stochastic one-step process of growth or shrinkage of a car cluster (jam). As generalization we discuss the coexistence of several car clusters of different sizes. The basic problem is to find a physically motivated ansatz for the transition rates of the attachment and detachment of individual cars to a car cluster…
Chiral Instabilities and the Onset of Chiral Turbulence in QED Plasmas
2020
We present a first principles study of chiral plasma instabilities and the onset of chiral turbulence in QED plasmas far from equilibrium. By performing classical-statistical lattice simulations of the microscopic theory, we show that the generation of strong helical magnetic fields from a helicity imbalance in the fermion sector proceeds via three distinct phases. During the initial linear instability regime the helicity imbalance of the fermion sector causes an exponential growth(damping) of magnetic field modes with right(left) handed polarization, for which we extract the characteristic growth (damping) rates. Secondary growth of unstable modes accelerates the helicity transfer from fer…
Microscopic description of α-like resonances
2000
A description of $\ensuremath{\alpha}$-like resonances is given in terms of single-particle states including narrow Gamow resonances in continuum. The equations of motion are derived within the multistep shell-model approach; the lowest collective two-particle eigenmodes are used as building blocks for the four-particle states. A good agreement with the low-lying states in ${}^{212}\mathrm{Po}$ is obtained. A new technique to estimate the $\ensuremath{\alpha}$-particle formation amplitude for any multipolarity is proposed. The spectroscopic factor of the $\ensuremath{\alpha}$-decay between ground states is reproduced, but the total width is by two orders of magnitude less than the experimen…

The response of (95,97)Mo to supernova neutrinos
2011
Knowledge about nuclear responses to neutrinos is essential for both astrophysical applications and studies of neutrino properties. We perform in this paper calculations of the cross sections for neutral-current neutrino scattering off the odd A = 95,97 Mo isotopes for energies appropriate for the detection of supernova neutrinos. Both the incoherent and coherent contributions to the cross sections are evaluated. The prominently contributing nuclear final states are identified and analysed. We employ the microscopic quasiparticle-phonon model (MQPM) to construct the wave functions of the initial and final nuclear states. The response of the aforementioned nuclei to supernova neutrinos are c…
