Solitary Shock Waves and Adiabatic Phase Transition in Lipid Interfaces and Nerves
Shamit Shrivastava, Kevin Heeyong Kang, Matthias F. Schneider
This study shows that the stability of solitary waves excited in a lipid monolayer near a phase boundary requires positive curvature of the adiabats, a known necessary condition in…

Evidence for 2D Solitary Sound Waves in a Lipid Controlled Interface and its Biological Implications
Shamit Shrivastava, Matthias F. Schneider
Biological membranes by virtue of their elastic properties should be capable of propagating localized perturbations analogous to sound waves. However, the existence and the possibl…
