McElreath, Richard | Can females gain additional paternal investment by mating with multiple males? a game theoretic approach | Although females may require only one mating to become inseminated, many female animals engage in costly mating with multiple males. One potential benefit of polyandrous mating is gaining parental investment from multiple males. We developed two game theoretic models to explore this possibility. Our... | Female multiple mating; Polyandry; Nonprocreative mating; Paternal investment; Mating benefits; Mating strategy | 2001-11 |

Mishchenko, Eugene | Full counting statistics of a charge pump in the Coulomb blockade regime | We study full charge counting statistics (FCCS) of a charge pump based on a nearly open single electron transistor. The problem is mapped onto an exactly soluble problem of a nonequilibrium g=1/2 Luttinger liquid with an impurity. We obtain an analytic expression for the generating function of the... | Counting statistics; Luttinger liquid | 2001-11 |

Landesman, Margaret M. | Multi-volume reference sets-have they a future | For the past few years, I've felt badly about the sales representatives from major microform publishers who come to visit hoping to sell microform collections to the library. It seems a cruel thing for a publisher to do - to send a representative out in this day and budget to pitch microfilm to libr... | Libraries; Collection development; Reference resources | 2001-11 |

Wu, Yong-Shi | Nanoscale magnetic-domain structure in colossal magnetoresistance islands | Magnetic force microscopy reveals the nature of local magnetic structure in submicron islands of colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) thin films. The evolution of domains in a magnetic field reveals the importance of shape anisotropy as well as magnetostriction in determining the micromagnetics in suc... | Magnetic domain; Colossal magnetoresistance islands | 2001-11 |

Vardeny, Zeev Valentine | Photoexcitation dynamics in regioregular and regiorandom polythiophene films | Using a variety of optical probes techniques we studied the photoexcitation dynamics in thin films of poly-3-hexyl thiophene with regioregular order that forms lamellae structures with increased interchain interaction, as well as regiorandom order that keeps a chainlike morphology. In regiorandom fi... | Photoexcitation dynamics; Regio-regular; Regio-random; Polythiophene films | 2001-11 |

Liu, Feng | Simple generic method for predicting the effect of strain on surface diffusion | We show, by first-principles calculations, that the effect of external strain on surface diffusion is inherently correlated with the intrinsic surface stress induced by the adatom along its diffusion pathways. We demonstrate a simple generic method for a priori predicting quantitatively how an ext... | Surface diffusion; First-principles calculations; Adatoms | 2001-11 |

Liu, Feng | Surface stress-induced island shape transition in Si(001) homoepitaxy | A low-energy electron microscopy study of two-dimensional Si(001) island shapes near thermal equilibrium on 10315 mm2 large single-domain terraces reveals a continuous increase of island aspect ratio and a shape transition from elliptical to ‘‘American-football''-like with increasing island size... | Si(001); Homoepitaxy; Island shape transition; Single-domain terraces | 2001-11 |

Mishchenko, Eugene | Zero-bias anomaly in disordered wires | We calculate the low-energy tunneling density of states v(ε, T) of an N-channel disordered wire, taking into account the electron-electron interaction nonperturbatively. The finite scattering rate 1/r results in a crossover from the Luttinger liquid behavior at higher energies, v ∞ εa, to the ... | Disordered wires; Luttinger liquid; Coulomb interaction | 2001-11 |
