“Light at the purple end of the spectrum has more energy than light at the red end. Hy do you think that purple is not a very common plant color?”" " https://lnkd.in/emQTE2Ha. View in LinkedIn
NEW ERA OF LIFE SCIENCES. “Atomistic simulations of chemical, biological and materials systems have become increasingly precise and predictive owing to the development of accurate and efficient techniques that describe the quantum mechanical behaviour of electrons.” https://lnkd.in/eX_8Qz8i View in LinkedIn
BRAIN PRECURSORS, “The neurotrophin signaling pathway plays a role in neural development, regeneration and neural plasticity in mammals. Analyzing the Daphnia genome, Wilson shows for the first time that a neurotrophin and both a tyrosine receptor kinase (Trk) and a p75-type neurotrophin-receptor (p75NTR) are present in a protostome, indicating that this pathway existed in the last common ancestor of protostomes and deuterostomes.” https://lnkd.in/eb_zYf4p View in LinkedIn
LOW TEMP SUPERCONDUCTIVITY. “Such phenomena may be interpreted in terms of tunneling of fluxons playing the role of effective quantum "particles" dual to Cooper pairs.” https://lnkd.in/eRNV9Mec View in LinkedIn
ANALOGY. “It should be noted that the role of the universe scale factor a(t) is somewhat similar to the role of the center of mass coordinate, which describes the motion of some complicated macroscopic object. In classical mechanics, this motion is well-defined.” https://www.mdpi.com/2218-1997/7/6/164/htm View in LinkedIn
FULCRUM. “We demonstrate that low temperature properties of superconducting nanowires are essentially determined by quantum fluctuations.” https://lnkd.in/eRNV9Mec View in LinkedIn
FAST SCALE. “Cosmological solutions exhibiting fast scale factor oscillations also appear quite generically in many other theoretical frameworks, such as semiclassical quantum gravity, cosmological models with oscillating dark energy, and various modified gravity theories.” https://www.mdpi.com/2218-1997/7/6/164/htm View in LinkedIn
INVISIBLE FIELDS. “The particle is subjected to vacuum electric field fluctuations even if no real photons are present. These fluctuations exert a force on the particle which can either push the particle toward the barrier, enhancing the tunneling probability, or away from the barrier, suppressing tunneling.” https://lnkd.in/eUwbdDwb View in LinkedIn
ISSUE OF SCALE. “However, the effect of this huge “true” cosmological constant at macroscopic scales is largely canceled by strong metric fluctuations on the Planck scale. As a result, the effective cosmological constant observed at macroscopic cosmological scales equals its currently measured value of Λ = 1.11 × 10(−52) m(−2).” https://www.mdpi.com/2218-1997/7/6/164/htm View in LinkedIn
1ST SOLUTION. “The approach developed in [1] implies that, at the ultra-fast and microscopic (Planck) scales, the “true” magnitude of the cosmological constant is very large, and its magnitude is defined by the vacuum energy density predicted by quantum mechanics, which is about 120 orders of magnitude larger than the value experimentally observed at cosmological scales.” https://www.mdpi.com/2218-1997/7/6/164/htm View in LinkedIn
