Neurotransmitter transport: models in flux.
Physiologists say that ions and neutral solutes can cross biological membranes via ‘‘transporters’’ and ‘‘channels.’’ We tend to think about the difference between transporters and channels in terms of gating mechanisms. Ion channels exhibit a wide range of selectivity properties and permeation rates, but their gating at the most basic level can be thought of in terms of a single barrier or gat...
متن کاملFlux Transport Solar Dynamo Models, Current Problems and Possible Solutions
The sunspot solar cycle has been usually explained as the result of a dynamo process operating in the sun. This is a classical problem in Astrophysics that until the present is not fully solved. Here we discuss current problems and limitations with the solar dynamo modeling and their possible solutions using the kinematic dynamo model with the Babcock-Leighton approximation as a tool. In partic...
متن کاملSolar cycle prediction using precursors and flux transport models
We study the origin of the predictive skill of some methods to forecast the strength of solar activity cycles. A simple flux transport model for the az-imuthally averaged radial magnetic field at the solar surface is used, which contains a source term describing the emergence of new flux based on observational sunspot data. We consider the magnetic flux diffusing over the equator as a pre-dicto...
متن کاملFlux-Transport Solar Dynamos
Large-scale solar dynamo models were first built by Parker (1955). Over the past half a century these models have evolved significantly. We discuss here the development of a class of large-scale dynamo models which include, along with the α-effect and Ω-effect, an important third process, flux transport by meridional circulation. We present the properties of this ‘flux-transport’ dynamo, includ...
متن کاملHomogeneous Auxin Steady States and Spontaneous Oscillations in Flux-Based Auxin Transport Models
We consider patterns formed by active transport of auxin in a tissue, where the accumulation of transporters is activated by local fluxes of auxin. We characterize the steady states for which auxin is homogeneous in the tissue. Under a condition of regularity of the dependence of transporters to the flux, we can prove that one of these steady states, with zero flux everywhere, is always locally...
