Correlation properties of a one-dimensional repulsive Bose gas at finite temperature

We present a comprehensive study shedding light on how thermal fluctuations affect correlations in a Bose gas with contact repulsive interactions in one spatial dimension. The pair correlation function, the static structure factor, and the one-body density ...

Learning From Demonstration and Interactive Control of Variable-Impedance to Cut Soft Tissues

Aude Billard, Rui Wu

In this article, we propose an approach to extract variable-impedance during cutting tasks from human demonstrations, so as to ease soft-tissue cutting by robots. We model the dynamic adjustment of the human arm during interactions with the tissue and tran ...

Modelling long-range interactions in multiscale simulations of ferromagnetic materials

Doghonay Arjmand

Atomistic-continuum multiscale modelling is becoming an increasingly popular tool for simulating the behaviour of materials due to its computational efficiency and reliable accuracy. In the case of ferromagnetic materials, the atomistic approach handles th ...

Origin of the Strong Interaction between Polar Molecules and Copper(II) Paddle-Wheels in Metal Organic Frameworks

Berend Smit, Daniele Ongari, Davide Tiana

The copper paddle-wheel is the building unit of many metal organic frameworks. Because of the ability of the copper cations to attract polar molecules, copper paddle-wheels are promising for carbon dioxide adsorption and separation. They have therefore bee ...

A model of urban scaling laws based on distance dependent interactions

João Vitor Meirelles de Miranda

Socio-economic related properties of a city grow faster than a linear relationship with the population, in a log–log plot, the so-called superlinear scaling. Conversely, the larger a city, the more efficient it is in the use of its infrastructure, leading ...

Viruses at solid-water interfaces: A systematic assessment of interactions driving adsorption

Tamar Kohn, Anne Thérèse Sigstam, Meret Aeppli, Antonius Magdi Hakeem Armanious

Adsorption to solid-water interfaces is a major process governing the fate of waterborne viruses in natural and engineered systems. The relative contributions of different interaction forces to adsorption and their dependence on the physicochemical propert ...

Probing fibronectin-antibody interactions using AFM force spectroscopy and lateral force microscopy

Andrzej Kulik, Kyumin Lee

The first experiment showing the effects of specific interaction forces using lateral force microscopy (LFM) was demonstrated for lectin-carbohydrate interactions some years ago. Such measurements are possible under the assumption that specific forces stro ...

Intramolecular symmetry-adapted perturbation theory with a single-determinant wavefunction

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Antonio Prlj, Jérôme Florian Gonthier, Ewa Maria Pastorczak

We introduce an intramolecular energy decomposition scheme for analyzing non-covalent interactions within molecules in the spirit of symmetry-adapted perturbation theory (SAPT). The proposed intra-SAPT approach is based upon the Chemical Hamiltonian of May ...

Competing Interactions in the Self-Assembly of NC-Ph-3-CN Molecules on Cu(111)

Harald Brune, Marina Pivetta, Giulia Elisabetta Pacchioni

We report on low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy measurements on NC-Ph-3-CN molecules adsorbed at 300 K on a Cu(111) surface. Upon cooling, the molecules form chain and honeycomb structures, incorporating Cu adatoms supplied by t ...

How Important is Self-Consistency for the dDsC Density Dependent Dispersion Correction?

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Nikolay Golubev, Eric Albert Georges Bremond

The treatment of dispersion interactions is ubiquitous but computationally demanding for seamless ab initio approaches. A highly popular and simple remedy consists in correcting for the missing interactions a posteriori by adding an attractive energy term ...

FM-AFM constant height imaging and force curves: high resolution study of DNA-tip interactions

Giovanni Dietler, Livan Bladimir Alonso Sarduy, Dusan Vobornik, Andrea Cerreta, Susana del Carmen Tobenas Borron

Interaction of the atomic force microscopy (AFM) tip with the sample can be invasive for soft samples. Frequency Modulation (FM) AFM is gentler because it allows scanning in the non-contact regime where only attractive forces exist between the tip and the ...
