Published: June 2007

The structure factor for hard hyperspheres in two to eight dimensions is computed by Fourier transforming the pair correlation function obtained by computer simulation at a variety of densities. The resulting structure factors are compared to the known Percus-Yevick equations for odd dimensions and to the model proposed by Leutheusser [J. Chem. Phys. 84, 1050 (1986)] and Rosenfeld [J. Chem. Phys. 87, 4865 (1987)] in even dimensions. It is found that there is fine agreement among all these approaches at low to moderate densities but that the accuracy of the analytical models breaks down as the freezing transition is approached. The structure factor gives another insight into the decrease in the ordering of the hyperspheres as the dimension is increased.

Background: Most cancer survivors have multiple cardiovascular risk factors, increasing their risk of poor cardiovascular and cancer outcomes. The Automated Heart-Health Assessment (AH-HA) tool is a novel electronic health record clinical decision support tool based on the American Heart Association's Life's Simple 7 cardiovascular health (CVH) metrics to promote CVH assessment and discussion in outpatient oncology. Before proceeding to future implementation trials, it is critical to establish the acceptability of the tool among providers and survivors.

Molecule-electrode interfaces play a pivotal role in defining the electron transport properties of molecular electronic devices. While extensive research has concentrated on optimizing molecule-electrode coupling (MEC) involving electrode materials and molecular anchoring groups, the role of the molecular backbone structure in modulating MEC is equally vital. Additionally, it is known that the incorporation of heteroatoms into the molecular backbone notably influences factors such as energy levels and conductive characteristics.
