Quantum Mechanics and the Mechanism of Sexual Reproduction
There are many claims that quantum mechanics plays a key role in the origin and/or operation of biological organisms. The mechanism of the meiosis, mitosis and gametes life cycle from the view-point of quantum for human has been represented. The quantum gates have been used to simulate these processes for the first time. The reason of several hundred sperms has been explained in the male too
متن کاملQuantum mechanical proton range in human body
Introduction: Proton therapy delivers radiation to tumor tissue in a much more confined way than conventional photon therapy thus allowing the radiation oncologist to use a greater dose while still minimizing side. Materials and Methods: protons release most of their energy within the tumor region. As a result, the treating physician can potentially give an...

متن کاملStructure-Activity Relationship of Imidazobenzodiazepines, an AM1 Semi-Empirical Quantum Mechanics Study
Conformations and electronic properties of a series of imidazobenzodiazepines are investigated by AM1 semi-empirical quantum mechanics method. It is shown that substitution of Cl in position 7 instead of 8, changes the geometry of the seven membered lactam ring; this may put the N5 nitrogen in a better positon to act as a hydrogen bond acceptor, and the phenyl ring in position 6 is probably...
متن کاملQuantum mechanics investigation of acid dissociation constant of carboxylic acids in aqueous solution
According to the Bronsted definition, any compound which has a hydrogen atom is an acid, since itmay be lost as a proton. A thermodynamical cycle is proposed to calculate absolute pKa values forBronsted acids in aqueous solution. The equilibrium of dissociation of a Bronsted acid depends onthe interaction of the acid and its conjugate base with solvent molecules. There fore the pKa valuedepends...
متن کاملTransannular Interaction in N-Aryl-5-Azocanones, A Semiempirical Quantum Mechanics and UV Spectroscopy Studies
The ability of the present semiempirical quantum mechanics methods are surveyed for reproducing the transannular interaction in the bifunctional N-phenyl-5-azocanones. The AM1 method is the best with the order of reliability being Am1, PM3, MNDO and MINDO/3. AM1 calculations were then carried out for quantification of transannular interaction. The n(o) ionization potential has be...
