Published: September 1999

We analyze the kinetics of trapping (A+B-->B) and annihilation (A+B-->0) processes on a one-dimensional substrate with homogeneous distribution of immobile B particles while the A particles are supplied by a localized source. For the imperfect reaction case, we analyze both problems by means of a stochastic model and compare the results with numerical simulations. In addition, we present the exact analytical results of the stochastic model for the case of perfect trapping.

Background: The social problems caused by depressive disorders and psychological behaviors in women are increasingly prominent, with extreme incidents occurring from time to time. Therefore, the issue concerning "how to prevent and resolve the risk of depression in women" is gaining significant attention across various sectors. However, previous studies have largely focused on teenage girls, perimenopausal women, or women during pregnancy and the postpartum period, neglecting the adverse effects of major diseases, which is detrimental to enhancing the psychological well-being of women with cancer.

Data-driven modeling of background radiation structure utilizing matrix profile in nuclear security.

Sci Rep

January 2025

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Texas at San Antonio, San Antonio, TX, 78249, USA.

The inherently stochastic nature of radiation emissions makes modeling background radiation structure a particularly challenging research area. In source identification scenarios, which are critical to nuclear security, the complexity of background radiation modeling is intensified by dynamically changing factors that influence radiation measurements. Consequently, accurately modeling and estimating background radiation can significantly improve our nuclear security capabilities by enhancing the detection of anomalies within radiation data.

Assessing sub-Saharan Africa's GHG emissions from croplands: environmental impacts and sustainable mitigation strategies.

Environ Monit Assess

January 2025

Department of Environmental Management, Institute of Environmental Engineering, RUDN University, Miklukho-Maklaya Street, 117198, Moscow, Russia.

Globally, agricultural lands are among the top emitters of greenhouse gases (GHGs), responsible for over 20% of total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Climatic conditions, an acute challenge in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), where access to mitigation technologies remains limited, have heavily influenced these lands. This study explores GHG contributions from crop production and their devastating and deteriorating impacts on the economy and environment and proposes a sustainable solution.

Optimal strategies for correcting merotelic chromosome attachments in anaphase.

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A

February 2025

Courant Institute for Mathematical Sciences and Department of Biology, New York University, New York, NY 10012.

Accurate chromosome segregation in mitosis depends on proper connections of sister chromatids, through microtubules, to the opposite poles of the early mitotic spindle. Transiently, many inaccurate connections are formed and rapidly corrected throughout the mitotic stages, but a small number of merotelic connections, in which a chromatid is connected to both spindle poles, remain lagging at the spindle's equator in anaphase. Most of the lagging chromatids are eventually moved to one or the other pole, likely by a combination of microtubules' turnover and the brute force of pulling by the microtubules' majority from the one pole against the microtubules' minority from the other pole.

Soil moisture is the core of the hydrological cycle in agroecosystems, and most of the studies on soil moisture dynamics modeling adopt deterministic research methods, which are not well suited to study the hydrological processes in agricultural fields under changing conditions. Therefore, the present study adopts a stochastic approach to reveal the distribution characteristics of soil moisture in agroecosystems under the effects of soil, climate, vegetation, and other influencing factors. Using soil moisture and precipitation data and based on a stochastic model of soil moisture dynamics, the point-scale soil moisture dynamic characteristics and soil moisture probability density function of farmland systems in the Songnen Plain region were investigated.
