We report 11 μs of molecular dynamics simulations of the electron-transfer reaction between primary and secondary quinone cofactors in the bacterial reaction center. The main question addressed here is the mechanistic reason for unidirectional electron transfer between chemically identical cofactors. We find that electron is trapped at the secondary quinone by wetting of the protein pocket foll...

Given a set of real images, Novel View Synthesis (NVS) aims to produce views of a scene that would correspond to that of a virtual camera. There exist many approaches to solving this problem. We consider physically valid NVS methods, in particular those based on epipolar and trifocal transfer. We review a number of methods and place them into a common framework of view specification and mapping...

The charge-transfer (CT) together with the polarization energy appears at second and higher orders in symmetry-adapted perturbation theory (SAPT). At present there is no theoretically compelling way of isolating the charge-transfer energy that is simultaneously basis-set independent and applicable for arbitrary intermolecular separation. We argue that the charge-transfer can be interpreted as a...

Based on psychophysical evidence about how learning of visuomotor transformation generalizes, it has been suggested that movements are planned on the basis of movement direction and magnitude, i.e., the vector connecting movement origin and targets. This notion is also known under the term "vectorial planning hypothesis". Previous psychophysical studies, however, have included separate areas of...

Reverse micelle extraction has received considerable attention in recent years due to its ability to selectively solubilise solutes from an aqueous phase and to maintain their biological activities. This paper presents the results from studies on extraction of penicillin G from aqueous solution (forward extraction) and from reverse micelles to a new aqueous solution (backward extraction), by em...
