smICA: Open-Source Software for Quantitative, Lifetime-Resolved Mapping of Absolute Fluorophore Concentrations in Living Cells
Tomasz Kalwarczyk, Grzegorz Bubak, JarosÅaw Michalski +8
Advanced microscopy techniques are essential in biomedical research for visualising and tracking biomolecules within living cells and their compartments. Conventional fluorescence…
Global non-equilibrium thermodynamics of stationary states applied to the Rayleigh-Bénard convection
Robert HoÅyst, PaweÅ Jan Å»uk, Konrad GiżyÅski +3
Classical thermodynamics describes physical systems in thermodynamic equilibrium, characterized in particular by the absence of macroscopic motion. Global non-equilibrium thermodyn…
Brownian motion at various length scales with hydrodynamic and direct interactions
Jeffrey C. Everts, Robert HoÅyst, Karol Makuch
Brownian motion is essential for describing diffusion in systems ranging from simple to complex liquids. Unlike simple liquids, which consist of only a solvent, complex liquids, su…
Continuous non-equilibrium transition driven by the heat flow
Yirui Zhang, Marek Litniewski, Karol Makuch +3
We discovered an out-of-equilibrium transition in the ideal gas between two walls, divided by an inner, adiabatic, movable wall. The system is driven out-of-equilibrium by supplyin…
Direction of spontaneous processes in non-equilibrium systems with movable/permeable internal walls
Robert HoÅyst, PaweÅ Jan Å»uk, Anna MacioÅek +2
The second law of equilibrium thermodynamics explains the direction of spontaneous processes in a system after removing internal constraints. When the system only exchanges energy…
