When a fluid comes into contact with a solid surface, charge separates at the interface. This study describes a method that harvests the gravitational energy of water-available in abundance naturally, such as in rain and rivers-through the separation of charge at the interface. Essentially, it is found that water can be charged by flowing it across a solid surface under its own weight; thus, a ...

We compute the energy that is radiated from a fluctuating selfdual string in the large N limit of AN−1 theory using the AdS-CFT correspondence. We find that the radiated energy is given by a nonlocal expression integrated over the string world-sheet. We also make the corresponding computation for a charged string in six-dimensional classical electrodynamics, thereby generalizing the Lienard-Wie...

The fundamental problem of how tunneling in thermal medium is completed is addressed, and a new time scale of order 1/friction for its termination, which is usually much shorter than the Hubble time, is pointed out. Enhanced non-linear resonance is responsible for this short time scale. This phenomenon occurs when the semiclassical periodic motion in a metastable potential well resonates with o...

Riboflavin (vitamin B2) belongs to a group of respiratory enzymes that occur widely in animals and plants participating in vital oxidation- reduction processes in the body. A computational study was conducted on riboflavin by ArgusLab 4.0.1 to obtain the most active conformation of riboflavin and to analyze its excited-state properties. The best conformation of riboflavin was found to be -199.2...

Action potential or Spikes: electrical pulses of an amplitude of about 100mV that travel along nerve fibers. Field potential an electrical signal recorded extracellularly which arises from the synchronized activity of many cells. Hippocampus one of the most studied area of the mammalian nervous system which is part of the limbic system and is involved in learning and memory. Neuron the main exc...

T HE CHARACTERISTICS of the electrocardiographic tracing are determined by three independent variables. The first of these involves the potentials generated by the myocardium during depolarization and repolarization. These potentials can be altered by a wide variety of physiologic states, as well as by intrinsic disease of the myocardium. The second factor relates to the properties of the extra...

2014 The refraction of a porous structure with adsorbed molecules was investigated. Effects based on adsorbate molecule orientability relative to the whole porous sample were evidenced including quantitative estimates of the adsorbate molecule amount in pores. In a resonance electromagnetic field, sharp changes in the permeability of a fine-pored sample were observed corresponding to a variatio...

After a summary of a recently proposed new type of instant form of dynamics (the Wigner-covariant rest-frame instant form), the reduced Hamilton equations in the covariant rest-frame Coulomb gauge for the isolated system of N scalar particles with pseudoclassical Grassmann-valued electric charges plus the electromagnetic field are studied. The Lienard-Wiechert potentials of the particles are ev...

Abstract Inspired by the recent “Complexity = Action” conjecture, we use the approach proposed by Lehner et al. to calculate the rate of the action of the WheelerDeWitt patch at late times for static uncharged and charged black holes in f (R) gravity. Our results have the same expressions in terms of the mass, charge, and electrical potentials at the horizons of black holes as in Einstein’s gra...

X-ray structures permit theoretical study of Cl(-) permeation along bacterial ClC Cl(-) pores. We determined the lowest energy curvilinear pathway, identified anion-coordinating amino acids, and calculated the electrostatic potential energy profiles. We find that all four bacterial ClC Cl(-) crystal structures correspond to closed states. E148 and S107 side chains form steric barriers on both s...
