DNA Codes that Avoid Secondary Structures
In this paper, we consider the problem of designing DNA sequences (codewords) for DNA storage systems and DNA computing that are unlikely to fold back onto themselves to form undesirable secondary structures. The paper addresses both the issue of enumerating the sequences with such properties and the problem of practic...

Magnetic bistability and controllable reversal of asymmetric ferromagnetic nanorings
Magnetization reversals through the formation of vortex state and the rotation of onion state are two processes with comparable probabilities for symmetric magnetic nanorings with radius of about 50 nanometers. This magnetic bistability is the manifestation of the competition between the exchange energy and the magneto...

CMB component separation by parameter estimation
We propose a solution to the CMB component separation problem based on standard parameter estimation techniques. We assume a parametric spectral model for each signal component, and fit the corresponding parameters pixel by pixel in a two-stage process. First we fit for the full parameter set (e.g., component amplitude...

Discovery of very high energy gamma-rays associated with an X-ray binary
X-ray binaries are composed of a normal star in orbit around a neutron star or stellar-mass black hole. Radio and X-ray observations have led to the presumption that some X-ray binaries called microquasars behave as scaled down active galactic nuclei. Microquasars have resolved radio emission that is thought to arise f...

The main idea is to introduce auxiliary degrees of freedom, represented by Majorana fermions, which allow us to extend the Jordan-Wigner transformation to dimensions higher than one. We also discuss the implications of o...

Systematic procedural and sensitivity analysis of the pattern informatics method for forecasting large (M > 5) earthquake events in southern California
Recent studies in the literature have introduced a new approach to earthquake forecasting based on representing the space-time patterns of localized seismicity by a time-dependent system state vector in a real-valued Hilbert space and deducing information about future space-time fluctuations from the phase angle of the...

Modification of the pattern informatics method for forecasting large earthquake events using complex eigenvectors
Recent studies have shown that real-valued principal component analysis can be applied to earthquake fault systems for forecasting and prediction. In addition, theoretical analysis indicates that earthquake stresses may obey a wave-like equation, having solutions with inverse frequencies for a given fault similar to th...

Nonparametric Estimation of an Additive Model With a Link Function
This paper describes an estimator of the additive components of a nonparametric additive model with a known link function. When the additive components are twice continuously differentiable, the estimator is asymptotically normally distributed with a rate of convergence in probability of n^{-2/5}. This is true regardle...

Topological defects in flat nanomagnets: the magnetostatic limit
We discuss elementary topological defects in soft magnetic nanoparticles in the thin-film geometry. In the limit dominated by magnetostatic forces the low-energy defects are vortices (winding number n = +1), cross ties (n = -1), and edge defects with n = -1/2. We obtain topological constraints on the possible compositi...

The Mass Spectra of Giant Molecular Clouds in the Local Group
We reanalyze the catalogs of molecular clouds in the Local Group to determine the parameters of their mass distributions in a uniform manner. The analysis uses the error-in-variables method of parameter estimation which accounts not only for the variance of the sample when drawn from a parent distribution but also for ...

Instabilities of Near-Extremal Smeared Branes and the Correlated Stability Conjecture
We consider the classical and local thermodynamic stability of non- and near-extremal Dp-branes smeared on a transverse direction. These two types of stability are connected through the correlated stability conjecture for which we give a proof in this specific class of branes. The proof is analogous to that of Reall fo...

Comparison of the full-potential and frozen-core approximation approaches to density-functional calculations of surfaces
We scrutinize the accuracy of the pseudopotential approximation in density-functional theory (DFT) calculations of surfaces by systematically comparing to results obtained within a full-potential setup. As model system we choose the CO oxidation at a RuO2(110) surface and focus in particular on the adsorbate binding en...

The one-dimensional Lennard-Jones system: collective fluctuations and breakdown of hydrodynamics
The dynamical correlations of a model consisting of particles constrained on the line and interacting with a nearest--neighbour Lennard--Jones potential are computed by molecular--dynamics simulations.

Growth and generation in SL_2(Z/pZ)
We show that every subset of SL_2(Z/pZ) grows rapidly when it acts on itself by the group operation. It follows readily that, for every set of generators A of SL_2(Z/pZ), every element of SL_2(Z/pZ) can be expressed as a product of at most O((log p)^c) elements of the union of A and A^{-1}, where c and the implied cons...

For the region around the perfect synchronous state we show how to combine parameter diversity and coupling in order to robustly and precisely target a desired regime. This target process allows u...

Limits on non-Gaussianities from WMAP data
We develop a method to constrain the level of non-Gaussianity of density perturbations when the 3-point function is of the "equilateral" type. Departures from Gaussianity of this form are produced by single field models such as ghost or DBI inflation and in general by the presence of higher order derivative operators i...

The spectra are used to determine the redshift and classify the supernova type, essential information if the supernovae are to be used ...

Observations of QSOs at z ~ 5.7 - 6.4 show the appearance of Gunn-Peterson troughs around z ~ 6, and a change in the slope of the IGM optical depth tau(z) near z ~ 5.5. These results are interpreted as a signature of the end of the reionization era, which probably started at considerably higher redshifts. However, ther...
