It is well known that the density and anisotropy profile in the inner regions of a stellar system with positive phase-space distribution function are not fully independent. Here we study the interplay between density profile and orbital anisotropy at large radii in physically admissible (consistent) stellar systems. The analysis is carried out by using two-component (n-γ,γ1) spherical self-cons...

2014 In this paper, we present non-linear magnetization measurements as a function of field at different temperatures T ~ Tg for CuMn 0.2 % and AgMn 0.5 %, alloys doped with various amounts of gold impurities in order to change the anisotropy of the systems. We show that one has to consider anisotropy as a relevant scaling parameter in order to obtain a complete coherent description of the crit...

A two-dimensional fracture model where the interaction among elements is modeled by an anisotropic stress-transfer function is presented. The influence of anisotropy on the macroscopic properties of the samples is clarified, by interpolating between several limiting cases of load sharing. Furthermore, the critical stress and the distribution of failure avalanches are obtained numerically for di...

Different computational scheme for calculating surface integrals in anisotropic Brillouin zones are compared. An example of the transport distribution function (plasma frequency) of the thermoelectric material Bi(2)Te(3) near the band edges is discussed. The layered structure of the material together with the rhombohedral symmetry causes a strong anisotropy of the transport distribution functio...

Pore-scale flow simulations were conducted to investigate the permeability tensor of anisotropic porous media constructed using the Voronoi tessellation method. This construction method enabled the introduction of anisotropy to the media at the particle level in a random and yet controllable way. Simulations were carried out for media with different degrees of anisotropy through varying the mea...

Monte Carlo simulations have been performed to investigate the dependence of the dynamic phase behavior on the bilinear exchange anisotropy of a classical Heisenberg spin system. The system under consideration is a planar thin ferromagnetic film with competing surface fields subject to a pulsed oscillatory external field. The results show that the films exhibit a single discontinuous dynamic ph...

Under very mild additional assumptions, translates of conditionally positive definite radial basis functions allow unique interpolation to scattered multivariate data, because the interpolation matrices have a symmetric and positive definite dominant part. In many applications, the data density varies locally, and then the translates should get different scalings that match the local data densi...

Geomagnetic field is a one of the candidates for creation of anisotropy in azimuth distribution of extensive air showers over the entered cosmic rays to the atmosphere. Here we present the question: Is there any azimuth anisotropy flux in the upper level of the atmosphere due to the geomagnetic field over the entered cosmic-rays? The obtained answer is: yes. This investigation showed an agreeme...

Genetic experiments with full length AraC and biophysical experiments with its dimerization domain plus linker suggest that arabinose binding to the dimerization domain changes the properties of the inter-domain linker which connects the dimerization domain to the DNA binding domain via interactions that do not depend on the DNA binding domain. Normal AraC function was found to tolerate conside...

[Purpose] The efficacy of diffusion tensor imaging in the prediction of motor outcomes and activities of daily living function remains unclear. We evaluated the most appropriate diffusion tensor parameters and methodology to determine whether the region of interest- or tractography-based method was more useful for predicting motor outcomes and activities of daily living function in stroke patie...
