Phylogeny, taxonomy, and biogeography of Pterocarya (Juglandaceae)

Song, Yi-Gang ; Li, Ying ; Meng, Hong-Hu ; Fragnière, Yann ; Ge, Bin-Jie ; Sakio, Hitoshi ; Yousefzadeh, Hamed ; Bétrisey, Sébastien ; Kozlowski, Gregor

In: Plants, 2020, vol. 9, no. 11, p. 1524

Relict species play an important role in understanding the biogeography of intercontinental disjunctions. Pterocarya (a relict genus) is the valuable model taxon for studying the biogeography of East Asian versus southern European/West Asian disjunct patterns. This disjunction has not been as well studied as others (e.g., between Eastern Asia and North America). Several phylogenetic studies...

NESSi : The Non-Equilibrium Systems Simulation package

Schüler, Michael ; Golež, Denis ; Murakami, Yuta ; Bittner, Nikolaj ; Herrmann, Andreas ; U.R.Strand, Hugo ; Werner, Philipp ; Eckstein, Martin

In: Computer Physics Communications, 2020, vol. 257, no. 2020, p. 107484

The nonequilibrium dynamics of correlated many-particle systems is of interest in connection with pump–probe experiments on molecular systems and solids, as well as theoretical investigations of transport properties and relaxation processes. Nonequilibrium Green’s functions are a powerful tool to study interaction effects in quantum many-particle systems out of equilibrium, and to extract...

Global biogeographic synthesis and priority conservation regions of the relict tree family Juglandaceae

Song, Yi‐Gang ; Fragnière, Yann ; Meng, Hong‐Hu ; Li, Ying ; Bétrisey, Sébastien ; Corrales, Adriana ; Manchester, Steven ; Deng, Min ; Jasińska, Anna K. ; Văn Sâm, Hoàng ; Kozlowski, Gregor

In: Journal of Biogeography, 2020, vol. 47, no. 3, p. 643–657

Aim To establish a complete database of Juglandaceae at a spatiotemporal scale and develop a phylogeographic framework with which to elucidate the distributional patterns, diversity patterns, origins, evolution, and conservation priority regions of this family. Location Worldwide. Taxon Walnut family (Juglandaceae). Methods Data on the distribution of all the extant and fossil species of...

From chaos to many-body localization: some introductory notes

Chotorlishvili, L. ; Stagraczyński, S. ; Schüler, Michael ; Berakdar, J.

In: Acta Physica Polonica A, 2019, vol. 135, no. 6, p. 1155–1162

Staring from the kicked rotator as a paradigm for a system exhibiting classical chaos, we discuss the role of quantum coherence resulting in dynamical localization in the kicked quantum rotator. In this context, the disorder-induced Anderson localization is also discussed. Localization in interacting, quantum many-body systems (many-body localization) may also occur in the absence of...

Social signature identification of dynamical social networks

Li, Ren-De ; Liu, Jian-Guo ; Guo, Qiang ; Zhang, Yi-Cheng

In: Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 2018, vol. 508, p. 213–222

Understanding the social relation of dynamical online social networks (OSNs) is significant for identifying the strong and weak ties. In this paper, we empirically investigate the evolution characteristics of Facebook and Wiki users’ social signature, capturing the distribution of frequency of interactions between different alters over time in ego network. The statistical results show that...

Metallic contact between MoS2 and Ni via Au nanoglue

Shi, Xinying ; Posysaev, Sergei ; Huttula, Marko ; Pankratov, Vladimir ; Hoszowska, Joanna ; Dousse, Jean-Claude ; Zeeshan, Faisal ; Niu, Yuran ; Zakharov, Alexei ; Li, Taohai ; Miroshnichenko, Olga ; Zhang, Meng ; Wang, Xiao ; Huang, Zhongjia ; Saukko, Sami ; González, Diego López ; Dijken, Sebastiaan van ; Alatalo, Matti ; Cao, Wei

In: Small, 2018, vol. 14, no. 22, p. 1704526

A critical factor for electronics based on inorganic layered crystals stems from the electrical contact mode between the semiconducting crystals and the metal counterparts in the electric circuit. Here, a materials tailoring strategy via nanocomposite decoration is carried out to reach metallic contact between MoS2 matrix and transition metal nanoparticles. Nickel nanoparticles (NiNPs) are ...
