Coupling of lipid membrane elasticity and in-plane dynamics

10.1103/PhysRevE.96.012410

2017-07-19

Biomembranes exhibit liquid and solid features concomitantly with their in-plane fluidity and elasticity tightly regulated by cells. Here, we present experimental evidence supporting the existence of the dynamics-elasticity correlations for lipid membranes an...

Machine-learning approach for local classification of crystalline structures in multiphase systems

10.1103/PhysRevE.96.011301

2017-07-19

Machine learning is one of the most popular fields in computer science and has a vast number of applications. In this work we will propose a method that will use a neural network to locally identify crystal structures in a mixed phase Yukawa system consisting...

Modulated phases in a three-dimensional Maier-Saupe model with competing interactions

10.1103/PhysRevE.96.012137

2017-07-19

This work is dedicated to the study of the discrete version of the Maier-Saupe model in the presence of competing interactions. The competition between interactions favoring different orientational ordering produces a rich phase diagram including modulated ph...

Ballistic front dynamics after joining two semi-infinite quantum Ising chains

10.1103/PhysRevE.96.012138

2017-07-19

We consider two semi-infinite quantum Ising chains initially at thermal equilibrium at two different temperatures and subsequently joined by an interaction between their end points. Transport properties such as the heat current are determined by the dynamics ...

Production rate of the system-bath mutual information

10.1103/PhysRevE.96.012139

2017-07-19

When an open system comes into contact with several thermal baths, the entropy produced by the irreversible processes (dSi=dS−∑α đQα/Tα) keeps increasing, and this entropy production rate is always non-negative. However, when the system comes into contact wit...

Additive scaling law for structural organization of chromatin in chicken erythrocyte nuclei

10.1103/PhysRevE.96.012411

2017-07-19

Small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) on nuclei of chicken erythrocytes demonstrates the cubic dependence of the scattering intensity Q−3 in the range of momentum transfer Q∈10−3–10−2nm−1. Independent spin-echo SANS measurements give the spin-echo function, w...

Alternative steady states in ecological networks

10.1103/PhysRevE.96.012412

2017-07-19

In many natural situations, one observes a local system with many competing species that is coupled by weak immigration to a regional species pool. The dynamics of such a system is dominated by its stable and uninvadable (SU) states. When the competition matr...

Role of anchoring energy on the texture of cholesteric droplets: Finite-element simulations and experiments

10.1103/PhysRevE.96.012705

2017-07-19

We present a numerical method to compute defect-free textures inside cholesteric domains of arbitrary shape. This method has two interesting properties, namely a robust and fast quadratic convergence to a local minimum of the Frank free energy, thanks to a tr...

Geometrical properties of rigid frictionless granular packings as a function of particle size and shape

10.1103/PhysRevE.96.012904

2017-07-19

Three-dimensional discrete numerical simulation is used to investigate the properties of close-packed frictionless granular assemblies as a function of particle polydispersity and shape. Unlike some experimental results, simulations show that disordered packi...
