We present an analytical one-dimensional model potential for the description of electronic interface states that form at the interface between a metal surface and flat-lying adlayers of π-conjugated organic molecules. The model utilizes graphene as a universal representation of these organic adlayers. It predicts the energy position of the interface state as well as the overlap of its wave func...

We present an initial feasibility summary of a femtosecond synchrotron radiation x-ray source based on a flat-beam rf gun and a recirculating superconducting linac that provides beam to an array of undulators and bend magnets. Optical pulse durations of <100 fs are obtained by a combination of electron pulse compression, transverse temporal correlation of the electrons, and x-ray pulse compress...

Case presentation drives production and spurs practice growth. Without a strong case presentation system in place, your practice could face flat or lost production . . . something you can’t afford to risk in today’s economy. The good news is that many dental practices increase case acceptance significantly, for both need-based and elective treatment, simply by implementing a strong case present...

We establish a connection between the strong solution to the spatially periodic Navier–Stokes equations and a solution to a system of forward-backward stochastic differential equations (FBSDEs) on the group of volume-preserving diffeomorphisms of a flat torus. We construct a representation of the strong solution to the Navier–Stokes equations in terms of diffusion processes.

Abstract. Eastern China (EC), located in the downstream region of Tibetan Plateau (TP), is a large area with frequent haze pollution. In addition to air pollutant emissions, meteorological conditions are key inducement for pollution episodes. Based on study Great Smog London 1952 and EC over recent decades, it found that abnormal “warm cover” (air–temperature anomalies) middle troposphere, as p...

Growing evidence suggests that flat colorectal cancers (CRC) account for 10% to 20% of all CRCs and that these are frequently associated with more advanced pathologies. However, controversy exists as to the origin and progression of flat CRCs compared with the more common polypoid-type morphology. We report using the azoxymethane mouse model for human CRC that KK/HIJ and I/LNJ mice develop diff...

We investigate strong inequalities for mixed 0-1 integer programs derived from flow cover inequalities. Flow cover inequalities are usually not facet defining and need to be lifted to obtain stronger inequalities. However, because of the sequential nature of the standard lifting techniques and the complexity of the optimization problems that have to be solved to obtain lifting coefficients, lif...
