Staying Together: Protein Molecules in Mesoscopic Clusters.
Collective behavior of protein molecules in solutions is critically important for understanding their biological functions, as well as for efficient control of various technological processes. A number of recent experimental studies have observed the formation of various clusters in protein solutions in different systems (1–5). While the existence of small molecular complexes in solutions is a ...
متن کاملEvolutionary construction by staying together and coming together.
The evolutionary trajectory of life on earth is one of increasing size and complexity. Yet the standard equations of evolutionary dynamics describe mutation and selection among similar organisms that compete on the same level of organization. Here we begin to outline a mathematical theory that might help to explore how evolution can be constructive, how natural selection can lead from lower to ...
متن کاملMoving and staying together without a leader
A microscopic, stochastic, minimal model for collective and cohesive motion of identical self-propelled particles is introduced. Even though the particles interact strictly locally in a very noisy manner, we show that cohesion can be maintained, even in the zero-density limit of an arbitrarily large flock in an infinite space. The phase diagram spanned by the two main parameters of our model, w...
متن کاملLong-range Excitation of Collective Modes in Mesoscopic Metal Clusters
We develop a semiclassical theory for the long range excitation of plasmon resonances in atomic clusters, based on the doorway hypothesis. The effect of the width of the plasmon resonance is fully taken into account. As an application we study plasmon excitation in small Sodium clusters, in collisions with electrons and protons.
متن کاملStable vortex-antivortex molecules in mesoscopic superconducting triangles.
A thermodynamically stable vortex-antivortex pattern has been revealed in equilateral mesoscopic type I superconducting triangles, contrary to type II superconductors where similar patterns are unstable. The stable vortex-antivortex "molecule" appears due to the interplay between two factors: a repulsive vortex-antivortex interaction in type I superconductors and the vortex confinement in the m...
