Recent experiments conducted in the International Space Station highlight the apparent periodicity of leaf oscillations and other biological phenomena associated with rhythmic variations of lunisolar forces. These events are similar to…
We present the first seasonal cycle of gravity wave potential energy densities from ground-based lidar at high northern latitudes (Andenes/Norway, $69^{\circ}$N, $16^{\circ}$E) and compare with similar observations performed at middle…
While single-tree transpiration is challenging to compare with earth observation, canopy scale data are suitable for this purpose. To test the potentialities of the second approach, we equipped the trees at two measurement sites with sap…
Alterations of charges density on membranes (potentials) of plant cells by ion currents lead to disbalance of Coulomb forces compressing membranes and counteracting Hookean elastic forces. It should results in membrane vibrations till…
Poplar is one of the best fast-growing trees in the world, widely used for windbreak and wood product. Although architecture of poplar has direct impact on its applications, it has not been descried in previous poplar models, probably…
We present a new formulation of the loop-tree duality theorem for higher loop diagrams valid both for massless and massive cases. $l$-loop integrals are expressed as weighted sum of trees obtained from cutting $l$ internal propagators of…
The paper presents preliminary results of studying variations in the annual component in the Earth's polar motion. For this purpose, a signal with an annual period was extracted, firstly, from the series of pole coordinates of the…
NMR spin echo measurements of C-13 in C60, Y-89 in Y2O3, and Si-29 in silicon are shown to defy conventional expectations when more that one pi pulse is used. Multiple pi-pulse echo trains may either freeze our or accelerate the decay of…
The coupling between plasma flows and magnetic fields in the solar atmosphere governs the transport of angular momentum and the redistribution of magnetic flux, yet its manifestation in the magnetically dominated upper chromosphere remains…
When measuring the one-dimensional power spectrum of the Ly$\alpha$ forest, it is common to measure the power spectrum in flux fluctuations red-ward of the Ly$\alpha$ emission of quasars and subtract this power from the measurements of the…
To date, the weak-phase $\gamma$ has been measured using two-body $B$-meson decays such as $B\to D K$ and $B\to D\pi$, whose amplitudes contain only tree-level diagrams. But $\gamma$ can also be extracted from three-body charmless hadronic…
We measure the power spectrum, P_F(k,z), of the transmitted flux in the Ly-alpha forest using 3035 high redshift quasar spectra from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. This sample is almost two orders of magnitude larger than any previously…
The trajectory of Earth about the Sun is perturbed by torques exerted by the Moon and Sun, and also the four giant planets. These provoke variations of insolation at Earth surface, known as kyr-long Milankovi\'c cycles. The concept has been…
Sap transport in trees has long fascinated scientists, and a vast literature exists on experimental and modelling studies of trees during the growing season when large negative stem pressures are generated by transpiration from leaves. Much…
This article presents a power-spectrum analysis of 2,350 measurements of the $^{90}$Sr/$^{90}$Y decay process acquired over the interval 4 August 2002 to 6 February 2009 at the Lomonosov Moscow State University (LMSU). As we have found for…
This article presents a power-spectrum analysis of 39,024 measurements of the solar diameter made at the Mount Wilson Observatory from 1968.670 to 1997.965. This power spectrum contains a number of very strong peaks. We find that eight of…
The Sun's polar magnetic fields are directly related to solar cycle variability. The strength of the polar fields at the start (minimum) of a cycle determine the subsequent amplitude of that cycle. In addition, the polar field reversals at…
I provide two short derivations for the Shklovskii effect, which describes the apparent secular period drift of a periodic source due to its motion on the sky. These derivations use easily visualizable geometry and calculus, and might be…
On the basis of the model of the current flow through a single fibre, changes in the electric charge density over the myocardium are described. With the use of relevant analytic formulae, supported with numerical calculations, the…
Circular polarization spectroscopy has proven to be an indispensable tool in photosynthesis research and (bio)-molecular research in general. Oxygenic photosystems typically display an asymmetric Cotton effect around the chlorophyll…
