An exactly solvable model for a beta-hairpin with random interactions
I investigate a disordered version of a simplified model of protein folding,
with binary degrees of freedom, applied to an ideal beta-hairpin structure.
Disorder is introduced by assuming that the contact energies are independent
and identically distributed random variables. The equilibrium free-energy of
the model is studied, performing the exact calculation of its quenched value
and proving the self-averaging feature.Comment: 9 page

Constraints on the intrinsic charm content of the proton from recent ATLAS data
Constraints on the intrinsic charm probability \wccm = P_{{\mathrm{c}\bar
\mathrm{c}} / \mathrm{p}} in the proton are obtained for the first time from
LHC measurements. The ATLAS Collaboration data for the production of prompt
photons, accompanied by a charm-quark jet in pp collisions at
TeV, are used. The upper limit \mbox{\wccm < 1.93~\%} is obtained at the
68~\% confidence level. This constraint is primarily determined from the
theoretical scale and systematical experimental uncertainties. Suggestions for
reducing these uncertainties are discussed. The implications of intrinsic heavy
quarks in the proton for future studies at the LHC are also discussed.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figure
Theory of temperature dependence of the Fermi surface-induced splitting of the alloy diffuse-scattering intensity peak
The explanation is presented for the temperature dependence of the fourfold
intensity peak splitting found recently in diffuse scattering from the
disordered Cu3Au alloy. The wavevector and temperature dependence of the
self-energy is identified as the origin of the observed behaviour. Two
approaches for the calculation of the self-energy, the high-temperature
expansion and the alpha-expansion, are proposed. Applied to the Cu3Au alloy,
both methods predict the increase of the splitting with temperature, in
agreement with the experimental results.Comment: 4 pages, 3 EPS figures, RevTeX, submitted to J. Phys. Condens. Matter
