Description
Myosin is a molecular motor that converts chemical energy to mechanical energy, thus generating force and movement in muscles and cells. Myosin interacts with two ligands, ATP (fuel) and actin filaments (motor’s tracks). Actomyosin interaction is ...

Description
The Thulium Fiber Laser (TFL) is currently being studied as a potential alternative to the conventional, solid-state Holmium:YAG laser (Ho:YAG) for the treatment of kidney stones. The TFL is an ideal candidate to replace the Ho:YAG for laser litho...

Description
We demonstrate how the unusual mathematics of transfinite numbers, in particular, a nearly perfect realization of Hilbert's famous hotel paradox, manifests in the propagation of light through fractional vortex plates. It is shown how a fractional ...
