The effect of mutation rate variation. by Thomas Mailund (51584)

“…We split the alignment into segments geometrically distributed with mean length 500 bp and 2 kbp, and the mutation rate is then scaled by a random value chosen uniformly in the range 0.75 to 1.25 or 0.5 to 1.5. The dashed lines show the simulated values. …”

Germanium and Tin Analogues of Alkynes and Their Reduction Products by Lihung Pu (2461669)

“…Upon further reduction, the slight decrease in the Sn−Sn bond is probably a result of the reduced importance of Coulombic repulsion due to the larger size of tin and a widening of the Sn−Sn−C angles which may shorten the Sn−Sn σ-bond.…”

Patterns of Flexible Nanotubes Formed by Liquid-Ordered and Liquid-Disordered Membranes by Yonggang Liu (176004)

“…The spontaneous curvature of the Ld membranes is found to be 4.7 times larger than that of the Lo membranes. We also show that these curvatures are generated by weak PEG adsorption onto the membranes, with a binding affinity of about 1.6 <i>k</i>_B<i>T</i> per chain. …”
