Recent theoretical works have proposed atomic clocks based on narrow optical transitions in highly charged ions. The most interesting candidates for searches of physics beyond the Standard Model are those which occur at ...

We demonstrate the capability of the PALM model system version 6.0 to simulate neutrally stratified urban boundary layers. Our simulation uses the real-world building configuration of the HafenCity area in Hamburg, Germany. ...

The paper presents numerical and microstructural investigations on a punching process of 2 mm thick steel sheets. The dual phase steel DP600 and the mild steel DC04 exhibit different damage and fracture characteristics. ...

Spectral albedo in high resolution, from 290 to 1050 nm, has been measured at Neumayer, Antarctica, (70 390 S, 8 150 W) during the austral summer 2003/2004. At 500 nm, the spectral albedo nearly reaches unity, with slightly ...

We present a new model for the calculation of the diffuse fraction of the global solar irradiance for solar system simulations. The importance of an accurate estimation of the horizontal diffuse irradiance is highlighted ...

We report the development of a generalized pH-sensitive drug delivery system that can release any charged drug preferentially at the pH range of interest. Our system is based on polypyrrole nanoparticles (PPy NPs), synthesized ...

A structural model of the enoyl reductase (ER) catalytic domain of the fungal highly-reducing polyketide synthase squalestatin tetraketide synthase (SQTKS) was developed. Simulated docking of substrates and inhibitors ...

Within the context of flood forecasting we deal with the improvement of regionalisation methods for the generation of highly resolved (1 h, 1x1km(2)) precipitation fields, which can be used as input for rainfall-runoff ...
