Frequency selection in a gravitationally stretched capillary jet in the jetting regime

François Gallaire, Isha Shukla

A capillary jet falling under the effect of gravity continuously stretches while thinning downstream. We report here the effect of external periodic forcing on such a spatially varying jet in the jetting regime. Surprisingly, the optimal forcing frequency ...

The thermally activated distortion with amplification effect and related variant selection in red gold alloys

Roland Logé, Cyril Cayron, Margaux Nathalie Dominique Larcher

Variant selection during the A1→L10 transformation in a polycrystalline red gold alloy close to equiatomic Au-Cu composition has been extensively studied by Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) in our previous work. The use of a mathematical description ...

The population genetics of crypsis in vertebrates: recent insights from mice, hares, and lizards

Jeffrey David Jensen, Susanne Petra Pfeifer, Stefan Jean Laurent, Kristen Kay Irwin

By combining well-established population genetic theory with high-throughput sequencing data from natural populations, major strides have recently been made in understanding how, why, and when vertebrate populations evolve crypsis. Here, we focus on backgr ...

Limits on amplifiers of natural selection under death-Birth updating

Andreas Pavlogiannis

The fixation probability of a single mutant invading a population of residents is among the most widely-studied quantities in evolutionary dynamics. Amplifiers of natural selection are population structures that increase the fixation probability of advanta ...

A Global-Local Approach For Detecting Hotspots In Multiple-Response Regression

Anthony Christopher Davison, Jörg Hager, Hélène Ruffieux

We tackle modelling and inference for variable selection in regression problems with many predictors and many responses. We focus on detecting hotspots, that is, predictors associated with several responses. Such a task is critical in statistical genetics, ...

Canonical Notch signaling controls the early thymic epithelial progenitor cell state and emergence of the medullary epithelia lineage in fetal thymus development

Freddy Radtke, Ute Koch, Dong Liu

Thymus function depends on the epithelial compartment of the thymic stroma. Cortical thymic epithelial cells (cTECs) regulate T cell lineage commitment and positive selection, while medullary (m) TECs impose central tolerance on the T cell repertoire. Duri ...

The ONETEP linear-scaling density functional theory program

Edward Baxter Linscott

We present an overview of the onetep program for linear-scaling density functional theory (DFT) calculations with large basis set (plane-wave) accuracy on parallel computers. The DFT energy is computed from the density matrix, which is constructed from spa ...
