The fast dynamics of biomolecular systems are believed to be important to their physiological function. Fluorescence depolarization is a powerful technique for the investigation of these dynamics. A general overview of ...

Protoheme and heme a octapeptide rebinding of carbon monoxide after photodissociation have been observed at temperatures from 5 to 340 K for times from 2 ~s to 1 ks. Below 80 K, binding is nonexponentia1 in time and ...

Our interests in reactive nitrogen and the nitrogen cycle have shifted from increasing the efficiency of nitrogen delivery to target crop species to decreasing environmental damage caused by intensive agricultural practices. ...

An asymptotic theory is presented for the dynamics of detonation when the radius of curvature of the detonation shock is large compared with the one-dimensional steady Chapman-Jouguet (CJ) detonation reaction-zone thickness. ...

New physics emerges when polyphenylmethylsiloxane (PPMS) adsorbed between mica surfaces spaced at molecular dimensions undergoes oscillatory shear. The polymers experience a dynamic liquid-like to rubber-like transition ...
