We extend our previous study of elastic pion-nucleon scattering in the framework of chiral perturbation theory by performing a combined analysis of the reactions $\pi N \to \pi N$ and $\pi N \to \pi \pi N$. The calculation is carried out to…
Detecting slender, overlapping structures remains a challenge in computational microscopy. While recent coordinate-based approaches improve detection, they often produce less accurate splines than pixel-based methods. We introduce a…
We investigate the spin- and energy dependent tunneling through a single organic molecule (CoPc) adsorbed on a ferromagnetic Fe thin film, spatially resolved by low-temperature spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy. Interestingly,…
Using the perturbation-response scanning (PRS) technique, we study a set of 23 proteins that display a variety of conformational motions upon ligand binding (e.g. shear, hinge, allosteric). In most cases, PRS determines residues that may be…
Chemical erosion, one of the two major erosion processes along with mechanical erosion, occurs when a soluble rock like salt, gypsum or limestone is dissolved in contact with a water flow. The coupling between the geometry of the rocks, the…

X-ray photoelectron spectra provide a wealth of information on the electronic structure. The extraction of molecular details requires adequate theoretical methods, which in case of transition metal complexes has to account for effects due…
