Glycolysis in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae exhibits temporal oscillation under anaerobic or semianaerobic conditions. Previous evidence indicated that at least two membrane-bound ATPases, the mitochondrial F(0)F(1) ATPase and the plasma membrane P-type ATPase (Pma1p), were important in regulating the glycolytic oscillation. Measurements of intracellular ATP provide a unique tool to unders...

We have investigated behaviors of positively-charged fine particles in a cross-sheath between magnetized double plasmas with different potentials separated vertically by the horizontal magnetic field. In the sheath the charges on the particles become positive, because ion current flowing from a lower high-potential plasma surpasses electron current coming across the magnetic filed from an upper...

We study a dissipative dynamical system that models a parametric instability in a plasma. This instability is due to the interaction of a whistler with the ion acoustic wave and a plasma oscillation near the lower hybrid resonance. The amplitude of these three oscillations obey a three-dimensional system of ordinary differential equations which exhibits chaos for certain parameter values. By us...

We report measurements and simulations of laser-induced fluorescence in ultracold neutral plasmas. We focus on the earliest times, when the plasma equilibrium is evolving and before the plasma expands. In the simulation, the ions interact via the Yukawa potential in a small cell with wrapped boundary conditions. We solve the optical Bloch equation for each ion in the simulation as a function of...

the reaction of ch3o2 radicals with acetaldehyde on the solid surface of nh4no3 has been studied in a flow capillary reactor at low pressure and room temperature. the experiments were performed using epr spectrometer combined with the kinetic method of radicals freezing. peroxy radicals revealed an oscillation complex behavior during the process regarding to the phenomenon of radicals multiplic...

The objective of this paper is to examine the effectiveness of wall oscillation as a control scheme of drag reduction. Two flow configurations are considered: constant flow rate and constant mean pressure gradient. The Navier-Stokes equations are solved using Fourier-Chebyshev spectral methods and the oscillation in sinusoidal form is enforced on the walls through boundary conditions for the sp...

Helioseismology observations from space missions SOHO and Hinode have provided tremendous amount of new information about thermodynamic properties and dynamics of plasma in the solar interior. The helioseismic diagnostics are based on measuring oscillation frequencies and travel times of acoustic waves excited by turbulent convection in subsurface layers. These diagnostics give us new insights ...

Based on fluoride-based plasma treatment of the gate region in AlGaN/GaN HEMTs and post-gate rapid thermal annealing (RTA), enhancement mode (E-mode) AlGaN/GaN HEMTs with low on-resistance and low knee-voltage were fabricated. The fabricated E-mode AlGaN/GaN HEMT with 1 μm-long gate exhibits a threshold voltage of 0.9 V, a kneevoltage of 2.2 V, a maximum drain current density of 310 mA/mm, a pe...
