How soluble misfolded proteins bypass chaperones at the molecular level
Subpopulations of soluble, misfolded proteins can bypass chaperones within cells. The extent of this phenomenon and how it happens at the molecular level are unknown.
Through a meta-analysis of the experimental literature we find that in all quan...
Excited-state singlet–triplet inversion in hexagonal aromatic and heteroaromatic compounds
Ab initio computations performed by physicists from IF PAS and Technical University of Munich indicate on existence of a wide class of organic molecules with inverted sequence of the lowest singlet and triplet states. This discovery may have impor...
Carbon Oxide Decomposition as a Novel Technique for Ultrahigh Quality ZnO Nanowire Crystallization
By modifying the classic method of growing ZnO nanowires, we were able to achieve an exceptionally high level of structural and optical quality in individual ZnO nanowires. The half-width of the exciton bound to the donor measured an unprecedented...
Fast Electrically Switchable Large Gap Quantum Spin Hall States
First-principles calculations by physicists from IF PAN and collaborators indicate the presence of a wide energy gap and the possibility of rapid switching between quantum spin Hall states in a recently discovered family of two-dimensional materials.
Universality of Internal Correlations of Strongly Interacting p-Wave Fermions in One-Dimensional Geometry
The various properties of ultracold atomic gases significantly depend on the shape of the trap in which they are contained. However, it turns out that the quantum correlations between their subsystems can be completely independent of this. Such is...
Quantized Spin Pumping in Topological Ferromagnetic-Superconducting Nanowires
In an article published in Physical Review Letters researchers from MagTop IF PAN predict that the precession of the magnetization leads to robust quantized spin pumping in topologically nontrivial nanowires supporting Majorana zero modes.
Droplet propulsion on a substrate without external energy supply
Research led by IP PAS in collaboration with international partners from France, Czechia, USA, and Bulgaria has let to the proposal of a new substrate design based on polymer brushes, which can cause spontaneous and unidirectional fluid motion wit...
Turbulent motion of flowing light
The turbulent motion of fluids is probably the most complicated problem in Physics, but also one of the most important. Indeed, even today it is extremely difficult to make predictions about the turbulent dynamics of fluids. Yet turbulence is fund...
