The spherical collapse model was first developed by Gunn & Gott 1 for a flat universe with no cosmological constant. It assumes that the process of formation of bound objects in the universe can be at first approximation described by evolution of an uniformly overdense spherical region in otherwise smooth background. Despite its simplicity, the model has been widely used to explain properties o...

The unimolecular dissociation and isomerization kinetics of the three methyl propanoate (MP) radicals, CH3CH2C(=O)OĊH2 (MP-m), CH3ĊHC(=O)OCH3 (MP-α), and ĊH2CH2C(=O)OCH3 (MP-β), are theoretically investigated using high-level ab initio methods and the Rice-Ramsperger-Kassel-Marcus (RRKM)/master equation (ME) theory. Stationary-point energies are obtained using the coupled cluster singles and do...

Certain equations with integral constraints have as solutions time-periodic pulses of a field-like unknown while a current-like unknown oscillates periodically with time. A general asymptotic theory of this phenomenon, the generalized Gunn effect, has been found recently. Here we extend this theory to the case of nonlinearities having only one stable zero, which is the case for the usual Gunn e...
