An appetite for understanding appetite
I have a sweet tooth, and I will always choose any pastry over spinach salad. I also know that many readers will share this preference. However, I am also aware that an unbalanced diet, in quantity and quality, is associated with serious health problems, including type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular diseases, and cancer. It has therefore become a pressing question in basic and t...
متن کاملNonequilibrium Wetting
When a nonequilibrium growing interface in the presence of a wall is considered a nonequilibrium wetting transition may take place. This transition can be studied trough Langevin equations or discrete growth models. In the first case, the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation, which defines a very robust universality class for nonequilibrium moving interfaces, with a soft-wall potential is considered. W...

Abstract Hypothalamic appetite regulation is a vital homeostatic process underlying global energy balance in animals and humans, its disturbances resulting in feeding disorders wi...
متن کاملPartial wetting in porous catalysts: wettability and wetting e&ciency
Qualitative changes in the local (pore level) wetting e&ciency of a porous catalyst as a function of catalyst wettability are proposed based on monitoring the 1-D motion of the solid-liquid-gas contact line. As catalyst wettability is increased, the resulting wetting e&ciency is likely to show two distinct transitions viz., (1) a sudden decrease that is inspired by coalescence of neighboring ri...
متن کاملThe Ones We Know and the Ones We Don’t
When you open your eyes in the morning, you usually see what you expect to see. Often it will be your bedroom, with things where you left them before you went to sleep.
