Molecular Transport in Liquids and Glasses

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derived a relation between the diffusion constant D in a liquid of hard spheres and the free volume vf, which is based on the concept that statistical redistribution of free volume occasionally opens up voids large enough for diffusive displacement.

Heating magnetic fluid with alternating magnetic field

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed analytical relationships and computations of power dissipation in magnetic fluid (ferrofluid) subjected to alternating magnetic field and showed that the dissipation results from the orientational relaxation of particles having thermal fluctuations in a viscous medium.

The Scientific Basis

TL;DR: In this paper, the topology of the tetrahedral linkage and the efficiency of space filling are compared for the various polymorphs of SiO2, and the displacive transformations from a more open high-temperature form (e.g., "high" or "h") to a denser form stable at lower temperatures (α quartz or cristobalite) are discussed.

THEORY OF PROTEIN FOLDING: The Energy Landscape Perspective

TL;DR: The energy landscape theory of protein folding suggests that the most realistic model of a protein is a minimally frustrated heteropolymer with a rugged funnel-like landscape biased toward the native structure.
