Scaling of a collapsed polymer globule in 2D
Marco Baiesi, Enzo Orlandini, Attilio L. Stella
Extensive Monte Carlo data analysis gives clear evidence that collapsed linear polymers in two dimensions fall in the universality class of athermal, dense self-avoiding walks, as…
Intensity Thresholds and the Statistics of the Temporal Occurrence of Solar Flares
Marco Baiesi, Maya Paczuski, Attilio L. Stella
Introducing thresholds to analyze time series of emission from the Sun enables a new and simple definition of solar flare events, and their interoccurrence times. Rescaling time by…
Scaling law for seismic hazard after a main shock
Stefano Lise, Maya Paczuski, Attilio Stella
After a large earthquake, the likelihood of successive strong aftershocks needs to be estimated. Exploiting similarities with critical phenomena, we introduce a scaling law for the…
RNA denaturation: excluded volume, pseudoknots and transition scenarios
M. Baiesi, E. Orlandini, A. L. Stella
A lattice model of RNA denaturation which fully accounts for the excluded volume effects among nucleotides is proposed. A numerical study shows that interactions forming pseudoknot…
Topological and geometrical entanglement in a model of circular DNA undergoing denaturation
M. Baiesi, E. Orlandini, A. L. Stella
The linking number (topological entanglement) and the writhe (geometrical entanglement) of a model of circular double stranded DNA undergoing a thermal denaturation transition are…
Scaling in DNA unzipping models: denaturated loops and end-segments as branches of a block copolymer network
Marco Baiesi, Enrico Carlon, Attilio Stella
For a model of DNA denaturation, exponents describing the distributions of denaturated loops and unzipped end-segments are determined by exact enumeration and by Monte Carlo simula…
