Electronic Feedback Loop Sustaining Magnetic Resonance

by

Live Poster Session: Zoom LinkThursday, July 30th 1:15-2:30pm EDT Abstract: Resonance is a phenomenon where amplitude increases when the frequency of a periodic external applied force is close to the natural frequency of a system. The driving force adds energy into the system increasing the amplitude indefinitely unless there is damming, like friction, removing energy … Read more

Molecular Simulation of DNA Packaging into the Phi29 Bacteriophage

by

Live Poster Session: Zoom LinkThursday, July 30th 1:15-2:30pm EDT Abstract: Viruses exist as a protein shell called a capsid. It encloses single or double stranded DNA which codes for the virus elements. In order to reproduce and survive, a virus tightly packages its genetic material then ejects it into a host cell. The infected cell, … Read more

Molecular Dynamics Studies of the Ribosome CAR Surface

by

Live Poster Session: Zoom LinkThursday, July 30th 1:15-2:30pm EDT Abstract: mRNA codons with the sequence GCN are known to be overrepresented at the beginning of the open reading frame (ORF) of highly expressed yeast genes. This conserved periodicity suggests that these GCN repeats may play a role in regulating protein translation. The structural basis of … Read more

Resolving Structure in the Debris Disk around HD 206893 with ALMA

by

Live Poster Session: Zoom LinkThursday, July 30th 1:15-2:30pm EDT Abstract: Debris disks are tenuous, dusty belts surrounding main sequence stars generated by collisions between planetesimals. HD 206893 is one of only two stars known to host a directly imaged brown dwarf orbiting interior to its debris ring, in this case at a projected separation of … Read more
