Flavin mononucleotide fluorescence intensity decay in concentrated aqueous solutions
PublicationCzasowo-rozdzielone widma absorpcji i fluorescencji FMN w roztworach wodnych zostały zmierzone dla szerokiego zakresu stężeń. Pokazano, że zaniki fluorescencji są silnie przyśpieszone przez obecność dimerów FMN, które stanowią niedoskonałe pułapki energii wzbudzenia. Wyniki doświadczalne porównano z rezultatami symulacji Monte-Carlo, uwzględniającej powrotny transfer energii od pułapek do donorów, stwierdzając dobrą zgodność modelu...

Micellar solubilization of mineral and synthetic oils in nonionic surfactant solutions
PublicationZbadano solubilizację micelarną olejów mineralnych i syntetycznych (PAO6) w wodnych roztworach surfaktantów niejonowych (oksyetylenowanych alkoholi tłuszczowych). Dodatek kosurfaktanta (alkoholu amylowego) powodował znaczny wzrost efektywności solubilizacji badanych olejów. Najwyższą efektywność solubilizacji uzyskano dla roztworów Rokanolu NL6 (50 g/dm3) z dodatkiem alkoholu amylowego (2-2.5%). Ze wzrostem liczby grup oksyetylenowych...

Towards Rational Biosurfactant Design—Predicting Solubilization in Rhamnolipid Solutions
PublicationThe efficiency of micellar solubilization is dictated inter alia by the properties of the solubilizate, the type of surfactant, and environmental conditions of the process. We, therefore, hypothesized that using the descriptors of the aforementioned features we can predict the solubilization efficiency, expressed as molar solubilization ratio (MSR). In other words, we aimed at creating a model to find the optimal surfactant and...

The equivariant spectral flow and bifurcation of periodic solutions of Hamiltonian systems
PublicationWe define a spectral flow for paths of selfadjoint Fredholm operators that are equivariant under the orthogonal action of a compact Lie group as an element of the representation ring of the latter. This G-equivariant spectral flow shares all common properties of the integer valued classical spectral flow, and it can be non-trivial even if the classical spectral flow vanishes. Our main theorem uses the G-equivariant spectral flow...

Weak Solutions within the Gradient-Incomplete Strain-Gradient Elasticity
PublicationIn this paper we consider existence and uniqueness of the three-dimensional static boundary-value problems in the framework of so-called gradient-incomplete strain-gradient elasticity. We call the strain-gradient elasticity model gradient-incomplete such model where the considered strain energy density depends on displacements and only on some specific partial derivatives of displacements of first- and second-order. Such models...

Zero-range potentials for Dirac particles: Bound-state problems
PublicationA model in which a massive Dirac particle in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$ is bound by $N\geqslant1$ spatially distributed zero-range potentials is presented. Interactions between the particle and the potentials are modeled by subjecting a particle's bispinor wave function to certain limiting conditions at the potential centers. Each of these conditions is parametrized by a $2\times2$ Hermitian matrix (or, equivalently, a real scalar and a...

Bound on Bell inequalities by fraction of determinism and reverse triangle inequality

Such nonlocal correlations illustrate the advantage of quantum resources over classical resources. In this paper, we quantitatively study Bell inequalities with 2 × n inputs. As found in Gisin et al. [Int. J. Quantum. Inform. 05, 525 (2007)], quantum mechanical correlations...
