Values of m, the number of nucleons in the revolving cluster, and of R, the radius of revolution of the cluster about the center of mass of the spherical part of the nucleus, are calculated from the observed values of the energy for the ground-state bands of all nuclei with neutron number N >/= 126 on the basis of the assumptions (i) that both m and R change in a reasonable way with increase in the angular momentum quantum number J and with change in the proton number Z and the neutron number N, (ii) that m is usually an even integer, (iii) that certain clusters are especially stable, and (iv) that there is a special stability of the doubly magic sphere p82n126.

In this paper, the transfer matrix method is used to study the dispersion of acoustic waves in a finite periodic expansion chambers system with a defect. Two kinds of structures are studied. The first one is formed by expansion chambers, which are symmetrical concerning a defect, and the second one is asymmetrical with a defect.

Attempts to use colloid science concepts to better understand the dynamic properties of concentrated or crowded protein solutions are challenging due to the fact that globular proteins generally have heterogeneous surfaces that result in anisotropic or patchy contributions to their interaction potential. This is particularly difficult when targeting non-equilibrium transitions such as glass and gel formation in concentrated protein solutions. Here we report a systematic study of the reduced zero shear viscosity of the globular protein -crystallin, an eye lens protein that plays a vital role in vision-related phenomena such as cataract formation or presbyopia, and compare the results to the existing structural and dynamic data.

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthases are large enzymes present in every living cell. They consist of a transmembrane and a soluble domain, each comprising multiple subunits. The transmembrane part contains an oligomeric rotor ring (c-ring), whose stoichiometry defines the ratio between the number of synthesized ATP molecules and the number of ions transported through the membrane.

Magnetic antiskyrmions, the anti-quasiparticles of magnetic skyrmions, possess alternating Bloch- and Néel-type spin spirals, rendering them promising for advanced spintronics-based information storage. To date, antiskyrmions are demonstrated in a few bulk materials featuring anisotropic Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions and a limited number of artificial multilayers. Identifying novel film materials capable of hosting isolated antiskyrmions is critical for memory applications in topological spintronics.
