Fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) is a well-established method for the analysis of freely diffusing fluorescent particles in solution. In a two-colour setup, simultaneous detection of two different dyes allows the acquisition of both the autocorrelation of the signal of each channel and the cross-correlation of the two channels (fluorescence cross-correlation spectroscopy, FCCS). The ...

Media news serves as information intermediary that contributes to the cross industry return predictability. First, cross industry news contains valuable information about firm fundamentals that is not priced by the market. Second, consistent with high information costs hypothesis, cross industry news has long term effects on future returns with an annulized risk adjusted return 10.85% after 10 ...

Diffusion of aqueous sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) across cross-linked polyacrylamide hydrogel membranes has been studied by electrical conductivity measurements. Initial rapid sorption of SDS (as unimer) into the membranes is observed. The effect of SDS concentration, and of cross-linker fraction on the degree of swelling of the gels is studied and associated with binding of the surfactant to t...

Abstract In this paper, we shall study the formation of stationary patterns for a reaction-diffusion system in which FitzHugh-Nagumo (FHN) kinetics, its excitable regime, is coupled to linear cross-diffusion terms. (Gambino et al. Excitable Fitzhugh-Nagumo model with cross-diffusion: long-range activation instabilities, 2023), proved that supports emergence cross-Turing patterns, i.e., close-to...

Abstract. We propose a multiscale approach for coupling multi-physics processes across the scales. The physics is based on discrete phenomena, triggered by local thermo-hydro-mechano-chemical (THMC) instabilities, that cause cross-diffusion (quasi-soliton) acceleration waves. These waves nucleate when overall stress field incompatible with accelerations from feedbacks of generalized THMC thermo...

We design nonstandard finite difference (NSFD) schemes which are unconditionally dynamically consistent with respect to the positivity property of solutions of cross-diffusion equations in biosciences. This settles a problem that was open for quite some time. The study is done in the setting of three concrete and highly relevant cross-diffusion systems regarding tumor growth, convective predato...

Integrating cross-company business process standards in an interorganizational system (IOS) context is an emerging phenomenon on several business fronts. The practice is viewed as an enabler towards solidifying business to business connections, streamlining cross-company processes and providing a foundation for web-services. Although the practice is not new, most notably electronic data interch...

The clinical ability to measure molecular diffusion non­ invasively and in vivo using magnetic resonance imag­ ing (MRI) has generated great interest (1). In tissues, the effective diffusivity depends upon tissue anatomy, microstructure, and gradient pulse parameters. Diffu­ sion MR spectroscopy (2-4), 2DFT spin-echo imaging (5-7), and echo-planar imaging (EPI) (8-11), of in vivo isotropic medi...

We investigate the global time existence of smooth solutions for the Shigesada-Kawasaki-Teramoto system of cross-diffusion equations of two competing species in population dynamics. If there are self-diffusion in one species and no cross-diffusion in the other, we show that the system has a unique smooth solution for all time in bounded domains of any dimension. We obtain this result by derivin...
