Hard rods in a cylindrical pore: the nematic-to-smectic phase transition.
The effect of cylindrical confinement on the phase behaviour of a system of parallel hard rods is studied using Onsager's second-virial theory. The hard rods are represented as hard cylinders of diameter D and length L, while the cylindrical pore is infinite with diameter W. The interaction between the wall and the rods is hard repulsive, and it is assumed that molecules are parallel to the sur...
متن کاملA Pair of Crescent-shaped Proteins Shape Vesicles at the Golgi
The Golgi network may look like a stack of pancakes, but it functions like a highspeed, just-in-time cargo facility, modifying, sorting, and packaging proteins for destinations within and beyond the cell. Among these proteins are hormones, such as insulin and growth hormone, that are shuttled into secretory vesicles, where they remain until the cell receives the call to ship them out. The molec...

متن کاملSemiclassical Transition from an Elliptical to an Oval Billiard
Semiclassical approximations often involve the use of stationary phase approximations. This method can be applied when h̄ is small in comparison to relevant actions or action differences in the corresponding classical system. In many situations, however, action differences can be arbitrarily small and then uniform approximations are more appropriate. In the present paper we examine different uni...
متن کاملLaser Ultrasonics in Cylindrical Rods and Fibers
Cylindrical parts are widely used in industry at very different scales from rotating axis for engines to carbon fibres used in composite materials. Consequently, an increasing demand exists for their nondestructive evaluation. The laser ultrasonics technique providing a non-contact generation and detection process is suited for the study of acoustic waves in cylindrical structures. In previous ...
