We study the phase behavior of hard and soft spheres with a fixed dipole moment using Monte Carlo simulations. The spheres interact via a pair potential that is a sum of a hard-core Yukawa (or screened-Coulomb) repulsion and a dipole-dipole interaction. The system can be used to model colloids in an external electric or magnetic field. Two cases are considered: (i) colloids without charge (or d...

PURPOSE OF REVIEW On the basis of the definition of high-risk soft tissue sarcomas and prognostic factors, the most recent developments of preoperative treatment strategies with special emphasis on regional hyperthermia combined chemotherapy are reviewed. RECENT FINDINGS The most important prognostic factors (e.g. size, grade, depth and resection margins) for localized soft tissue sarcomas ha...

We consider binary mixtures of soft repulsive spherical particles and calculate the depletion interaction between two big spheres mediated by the fluid of small spheres, using different theoretical and simulation methods. The validity of the theoretical approach, a virial expansion in terms of the density of the small spheres, is checked against simulation results. Attention is given to the app...

We present here phase equilibria calculations of polyethylene solutions in different solvents as obtained with two versions of the SAFT equation of state, soft-SAFT and PC-SAFT. The objective of this work is twofold: to check the accuracy of the soft-SAFT equation in providing reliable polymer solutions behavior and to propose a methodology from which systematic studies on polymer solutions can...

the concept of fuzzy soft γ-ring is introduced; and some properties of fuzzy soft γ-rings are given. then the definitions of fuzzy soft γ-ideals are proposed and some of their theories are considered.

Employing a sample presented by Kaneko et al. (2006) and Kocevski et al. (2003), we select 42 individual tracking pulses (here we defined tracking as the cases in which the hardness follows the same pattern as the flux or count rate time profile) within 36 Gamma-ray Bursts (GRBs) containing 527 time-resolved spectra and investigate the spectral hardness, Epeak (where Epeak is the maximum of the...

studies of the magnetization of fe2o3@pt nanoparticles at room temperature showed that there is superparamagnetic contribution with high saturation magnetization about 12.35(emu/g), and soft ferromagnetic contribution with narrow coercive field about 58(oe). in this paper we fitted the hystersis loop of sample with brillouin function that demonstrating existence of superparamagnetic phase. tota...

In this paper, based in the L ukasiewicz logic, the definition offuzzifying soft neighborhood structure and fuzzifying soft continuity areintroduced. Also, the fuzzifying soft proximity spaces which are ageneralizations of the classical soft proximity spaces are given. Severaltheorems on classical soft proximities are special cases of the theorems weprove in this paper.

The solid-phase diagram of binary systems consisting of particles of diameter σA = σ and σB = γσ (γ ≤ 1) interacting with an inverse p = 12 power law is investigated as a paradigm of a soft potential. In addition to the diameter ratio γ that characterizes hard-sphere models, the phase diagram is a function of an additional parameter that controls the relative interaction strength between the di...
