Modelling cytoskeletal traffic: an interplay between passive diffusion and active transport
We introduce the totally asymmetric exclusion process with Langmuir kinetics
(TASEP-LK) on a network as a microscopic model for active motor protein
transport on the cytoskeleton, immersed in the diffusive cytoplasm. We discuss
how the interplay between active transport along a network and infinite
diffusion in a bulk reservoir leads to a heterogeneous matter distribution on
various scales. We find three regimes for steady state transport, corresponding
to the scale of the network, of individual segments or local to sites. At low
exchange rates strong density heterogeneities develop between different
segments in the network. In this regime one has to consider the topological
complexity of the whole network to describe transport. In contrast, at moderate
exchange rates the transport through the network decouples, and the physics is
determined by single segments and the local topology. At last, for very high
exchange rates the homogeneous Langmuir process dominates the stationary state.
We introduce effective rate diagrams for the network to identify these
different regimes. Based on this method we develop an intuitive but generic
picture of how the stationary state of excluded volume processes on complex
networks can be understood in terms of the single-segment phase diagram.Comment: 5 pages, 7 figure
Recent results from the B factories and perspectives on SuperB
The BaBar and Belle experiments, running mostly at the centerof-mass energy of about 10.58 GeV at the PEP-II e+e−
collider at SLAC and at the KEKB e+e− collider at KEK, have recorded integrated luminosities exceeding 0.5 ab−1 and 1.0 ab−1, respectively. The results of the two experiments have confirmed the success of the CKM mechanism for flavor mixing and CP violation and are in agreement with the Standard Model predictions. The SuperB experiment, a new generation flavor factory with very high luminosity (L = 1036 cm−2 s−1) will be able to record 75 ab−1 of data in five years of nominal data taking, which is about two orders of magnitude larger than the BaBar and Belle data samples. This new experiment has been proposed for searching for new physics effects in the flavor sector, mainly through precision measurements and searches for forbidden processes in B, D and τ decays. We report on recent results from the BaBar and Belle Collaborations, in particular on the measurement of the CKM angle γ and we present the physics reach of the SuperB experiment
Recent Charm results from the B factories
I report on recent Charm physics results from BABAR and Belle experiments that are sensitive to physics beyond the Standard Model. I discuss the searches for CP violation in charged and neutral D meson decays and the recent evidence for CP violation in the difference of the CP asymmetries in D0 → K+K− and D0 → π+π− modes and also the evidence in the D+ → K0S π+ mode
Anisotropic renormalized fluctuations in the microwave resistivity in YBCO
We discuss the excess conductivity above Tc due to renormalized
order-parameter fluctuations in YBCO at microwave frequencies. We calculate the
effects of the uniaxial anisotropy on the renormalized fluctuations in the
Hartree approximation, extending the isotropic theory developed by Dorsey
[Phys. Rev. B 43, 7575 (1991)]. Measurements of the real part of the microwave
resistivity at 24 and 48 GHz and of the dc resistivity are performed on
different YBCO films. The onset of the superconducting transition and the
deviation from the linear temperature behavior above Tc can be fully accounted
for by the extended theory. According to the theoretical calculation here
presented, a departure from gaussian toward renormalized fluctuations is
observed. Very consistent values of the fundamental parameters (critical
temperature, coherence lenghts, penetration depth) of the superconducting state
are obtained.Comment: RevTex, 8 pages with 5 figures included, to be published in Physical

Dynamic feeder dyke systems in basaltic volcanoes
In this paper, we describe the 1809 eruption of Mt. Etna, Italy, which represents one historical rare case in which it is possible to observe details of the internal structure of the feeder system. This is possible thanks to the presence of two large pit craters located in the middle of the eruptive fracture field that allow studying a section of the shallow feeder system. Along the walls of one of these craters, we analysed well-exposed cross sections of the uppermost 15–20 m of the feeder system and related volcanic products. Here, we describe the structure, morphology and lithology of this portion of the 1809 feeder system, including the host rock which conditioned the propagation of the dyke, and compare the results with other recent eruptions. Finally, we propose the dynamic model of the magma behaviour inside a laterally-propagating feeder dyke, demonstrating how this dynamic triggered important changes in the eruptive style (from effusive/Strombolian to phreatomagmatic) during the same eruption. Our results are also useful for hazard assessment related to the development of flank eruptions, potentially the most hazardous type of eruption from basaltic volcanoes in densely urbanized areas, such as Mt. Etna
Exclusion processes on networks as models for cytoskeletal transport
We present a study of exclusion processes on networks as models for complex
transport phenomena and in particular for active transport of motor proteins
along the cytoskeleton. We argue that active transport processes on networks
spontaneously develop density heterogeneities at various scales. These
heterogeneities can be regulated through a variety of multi-scale factors, such
as the interplay of exclusion interactions, the non-equilibrium nature of the
transport process and the network topology.
We show how an effective rate approach allows to develop an understanding of
the stationary state of transport processes through complex networks from the
phase diagram of one single segment. For exclusion processes we rationalize
that the stationary state can be classified in three qualitatively different
regimes: a homogeneous phase as well as inhomogeneous network and segment
phases.
In particular, we present here a study of the stationary state on networks of
three paradigmatic models from non-equilibrium statistical physics: the totally
asymmetric simple exclusion process, the partially asymmetric simple exclusion
process and the totally asymmetric simple exclusion process with Langmuir
kinetics. With these models we can interpolate between equilibrium (due to
bi-directional motion along a network or infinite diffusion) and
out-of-equilibrium active directed motion along a network. The study of these
models sheds further light on the emergence of density heterogeneities in
active phenomena.Comment: 55 pages, 26 figure
