The effect of an applied electric field has been measured for the quantum yield of formation of the P H , P+QA-, and 3P states of nonoriented Rb. sphaeroides reaction centers a t 80 K in poly(viny1 alcohol) (PVA) films and in glycerol-buffer glasses. Both the shape and magnitude of the field dependence are very similar for all three observables in both media where the data overlap. This result ...

in this study, kinetics and mechanism of the sulfur dioxide adsorption on the single-walled carbon nanotubes (cnt) are investigated. three single-walled carbon nanotubes, including the armchair (6,6), chiral (6,5) and zigzag (6,0) cnts were chosen as the models and the different orientations of so2 molecule relative to the cnt axis were considered. the b3lyp functional within the 6-31g(d) basis...

The authors studied the photoemission from molybdenum nanotip arrays with controlled apex curvatures by photoelectron microscopy and spectroscopy excited by 10 ps visible laser pulses under dc electric field. While two-photon photoemission microscopy demonstrates the enhancement of photoabsorption at the sharp tip apex, spatially resolved analysis of the photoelectron energy revealed anomalous ...

introduction: it is important that biological and health effects from the induction of currents and fields in the body by extremely low frequency (elf) fields are fully explored to determine the effects produced at the molecular, cellular and organ levels. the objective of this study was to evaluate the intensity of elf electromagnetic fields and its probable relationship with hematological cha...

We investigate the Schwinger pair creation process in the context of gravitational models with the back reaction of the electric field included in the geometry. The background is also an exact solution of type II superstring theory, where the electric field arises by Kaluza-Klein reduction. We obtain a closed formula for the pair creation rate that incorporates the gravitational back reaction. ...

Abstract: In this study, using density functional theory and the SIESTA computationalcode, we investigate the electronic and optical properties of the armchair graphenenanoribbons and the armchair boron nitride nanoribbons of width 25 in the presence of atransverse external electric field. We have observed that in the absence of the electricfield, these structures are se...

conclusions the results of this study show that it is possible to remove nitrate, and its intermediates from waste water. regarding the desirability of the process, the field scale study is proposed. results the results showed that by applying electric current of 0.14 a for 120 minutes, the nitrate content would reduce down to 97%. the obtained r2 for the nitrate removal model was higher than 0...

A considerable fraction of the solar wind energy that crosses the magnetopause ends up in the high-latitude thermosphere-ionosphere system as a result of Joule heating, the consequences of which are very significant and global in nature. Often Joule heating calculations use hourly averages of the electric field, rather than the time-varying electric field. This leads to an underestimation of th...
