Memory and long-range correlations in chess games
(2014)
In this paper we report the existence of long-range memory in the opening moves of a chronologically ordered set of chess games using an extensive chess database. We used two mapping rules to build discrete time series and ...
Inequality between size and charge in spherical symmetry
(2016)
We prove that, for a charged spherically symmetric body, twice the radius is always strictly greater than the charge of the body. We also prove that this inequality is sharp. Finally, we discuss the physical implications ...
Influence of β-cyclodextrin on the Properties of Norfloxacin Form A
(2014-12-16)
Cyclodextrins are able to form host-guest complexes with hydrophobic molecules to result in the formation of inclusion complexes. The complex formation between norfloxacin form A and β-cyclodextrin was studied by exploring ...
Existence of nonnegative solutions for singular elliptic problems
(2016)
We prove the existence of nonnegative nontrivial weak solutions to the problem −∆u = au−αχ{u>0} − bup in Ω, u = 0 on ∂Ω, where Ω is a bounded domain in Rn. A sufficient condition for the existence of a continuous and ...
Analysis of non-Markovian repairable fault trees through rare event simulation
(2022)
Dynamic fault trees (DFTs) are widely adopted in industry to assess the dependability of safety-critical equipment. Since many systems are too large to be studied numerically, DFTs dependability is often analysed using ...
Resonance states in a cylindrical quantum dot with an external magnetic field
(2014)
Bound and resonance states of quantum dots play a significant role in photo-absorption processes. In this work, we analyze a cylindrical quantum dot, its spectrum and, in particular, the behaviour of the lowest resonance ...
Monte Carlo simulation of characteristic secondary fluorescence in electron probe microanalysis of homogeneous samples using the splitting technique
(2015)
Electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) is based on the comparison of characteristic intensities induced by monoenergetic electrons. When the electron beam ionizes inner atomic shells and these ionizations cause the emission ...
Interpreting natural language instructions using language, vision and behavior
(2010)
We define the problem of automatic instruction interpretation as follows. Given a natural language instruc-
tion, can we automatically predict what an instruction follower, such as a robot, should do in the environment
to ...
Clustering and decoherence of correlated spins under double quantum dynamics
(2014)
We present an improved approach for the study of the evolution of spin correlations and decoherence in multiple quantum nuclear magnetic resonance experiments. The infinite system, constituted by the protons of a polycrystalline ...
Influence of the incorporation of fibers in biscuit dough on proton mobility characterized by time domain NMR
(2016)
The effect of fiber addition on the distribution and mobility of protons in biscuits is studied by using low resolution time domain Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (TD-NMR). The proportion of flour is reduced in order to ...
