We derive the grand partition function of protein chain by restricting dihedral angles to exist only in five distinct states and assume that the dominant noncovalent potential is the hydrogen bond interaction. We investigate the phase transition of protein secondary structures and the order of the transition through analyzing its heat capacity. Our theory demonstrates the presence of α-β-coil s...

Let Q(α) and Q(β) be algebraic number fields. We describe a new method to find (if they exist) all isomorphisms, Q(β) → Q(α). The algorithm is particularly efficient if there is only one isomorphism.

The present paper deals with the various q-Genocchi numbers and polynomials. We define a new type ofmultiple generalized q-Genocchi numbers and polynomials withweight α andweakweight β by applying the method of p-adic q-integral. We will find a link between their numbers and polynomials with weight α and weak weight β. Also we will obtain the interesting properties of their numbers and polynomi...

A new approach to the parametrization of the CKM matrix, V , is considered in which V is written as a linear combination of the unit matrix I and a non-diagonal matrix U which causes intergenerationalmixing, that is V = cos θ I + i sin θ U . Such a V depends on 3 real parameters including the parameter θ. It is interesting that a value of θ = π/4 is required to fit the available data on the CKM...

The BTeV experiment is designed to study beauty and charm physics at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. Our goals are to make an exhaustive search for physics beyond the Standard Model (SM) and make precise measurements of the SM parameters. The important measurements to make involve CP violation, mixing, and rare decays of hadrons containing b or c quarks. The CP violation in the SM originates fr...

Two-dimensional phase field simulations were performed of grain growth in highly textured materials with equal fractions of 2 texture components, denoted as α and β grains, and assuming 2 values of the grain boundary energies, namely σlow for the boundaries between grains of a different texture component and σhigh for boundaries between grains of a similar orientation, resulting in microstructu...

This study represents the first report on the chemical composition and biological activity of Trifolium angustifolium var. angustifolium. The major components of the essential oil were identified as hexatriacontene (23.0%), arachidic acid (15.5%) and α-selinene (10.0%). The main constituents of the fatty acid obtained from the petroleum ether extract were identified as palmitic acid (29.8%), li...
