Two particle correlations are studied in the reaction plane of peripheral relativistic heavy ion reactions where the initial state has substantial angular momentum. The earlier predicted rotation effect and Kelvin Helmholtz Instability,…
Three main statements are advocated in this talk: 1. Protons become more active at the periphery with increase of their collision energy as follows from comparison of ISR and LHC data. 2. The geometric scaling is violated even in the…
Protostellar outflows display wide-angle winds and collimated jets, the magnetocentrifugal launching of which enables accretion onto the protostar. The majority of the outflow mass is likely ejected or entrained molecular H$_2$, which can…
The potential energy surface of the H13 proton in base cytosine of the DNA molecules is calculated {\it ab initio} at the Gaussian98 MP2/6-311G(d,p) level. Two potential wells are found. One corresponds to the normal cytosine, while the…
