Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) molecules from species of the genus Drosophila contain a region exceptionally rich in adenine + thymine (A+T). Using agarose gel electrophoresis and electron microscopy, we determined that in the mtDNA molecules of D. melanogaster, D. simulans, D. mauritiana, D. yakuba, D. takahashii, and D. virilis, the A+T-rich regions, which are 5.1, 4.8, 4.6, 1.1, 2.2, and 1.0 kilo...

AbstructWe have analyzed the initial stages of annealing for amorphizing arsenic implants. The comparison of TED simulations to experimental data shows results that appear inconsistent with the standard assumption of complete removal of point defects from the regrown amorphized layer. Our analysis suggests that high arsenic concentrations may stabilize retention of vacancies during solid phase ...

Nuclear deformations and density profiles of neutron-rich even-even Zr isotopes are investigated by using the Skyrme-Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov method. Large quadrupole hexadecapole predicted along with large enhancement total reaction cross sections at neutron number $N=60--74$. Strong nuclear deformation starting $N=60$ is induced occupation intruder orbit asymptotic quantum $[n{n}_{z}\mathrm{\e...
