By applying a recently developed solution method for the Fredholm integral equation of the second kind, we obtain an expression for Green's function of the Smoluchowski equation with a reaction sink. The result is applied to obtain accurate analytical expressions for the time-dependent survival probability of a geminate reactant pair and the rate coefficient of the bulk recombination between reactants undergoing diffusive motions under strong Coulomb interactions. The effects of both repulsive and attractive interactions are considered, and the results are compared with the numerical results obtained by solving the equation for the survival probability and the nonequilibrium pair correlation function. It is shown that the solutions are accurate enough for most reasonable parameter values.

Introduction: Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a debilitating disorder characterized by intrusive memories, avoidance, negative thoughts and moods, and heightened arousal. Many patients also report gastrointestinal symptoms. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is an evidence-based treatment approach for PTSD that successfully reduces symptoms.

Borophene, as a new material with various configurations, has attracted significant research attention in recent years. In this study, the electronic properties of a series of χ-type borophene nanoribbons (BNRs) are investigated using a first-principles approach. The results show that the width and edge pattern of the nanoribbons can effectively tune their electronic properties.

The growing world population and climate change are key drivers for the increasing pursuit of more efficient and environmentally-safe food production. In this scenario, the large scale use of herbicides demands the development new technologies to control and monitor the application of these compounds, due to their several environmental and health-related problems. Motivated by all these issues, in this work, a hybrid graphene/boron nitride nanopore is explore to detect/identify herbicide molecules (Glyphosate, AMPA, Diuron, and 2,4-D).

Amino acids are fundamental building blocks of proteins, playing critical roles in medical diagnostics, environmental monitoring, and biomarker identification. The development of nanoscale electronic sensors capable of single-amino-acid recognition has gained significant attention due to their potential for label-free, real-time detection. In this study, we investigate the electronic transport properties of amino acids in two gold-based nanodevices with distinct architectures: a gold nanojunction and a gold-capacitor system.

Induction heating is one of the cleanest and most efficient methods for heating materials, utilizing electromagnetic fields induced through AC electric current. This article reports an analytical solution for transient heat transfer in a three-dimensional (3D) cylindrical object under induction heating. A simplified form of Maxwell's equations is solved to determine the heat generation inside the cylinder by calculating the current density distribution within the body.
