Davydov's solitons in zigzag carbon nanotubes (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Brizhik, L., Eremko, A., Piette, B., & Zakrzewski, W. (2009, December). Davydov's solitons in zigzag carbon nanotubes. Presented at Molecular Self-Organization in Micro-, Nano-, and Macro-Dimensions: From Molecules to Water, to Nanoparticles, DNA and ProteinsNonlinear mechanism of charge transport in low-dimensional nanosystems is considered, based on the account of the electron–phonon interaction that arises from the deformation dependencies of the on-site and the hopping interaction energies at interme...

Some Properties of Solitons (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Brizhik, L., Eremko, A., Ferreira, L., Piette, B., & Zakrzewski, W. (2009, December). Some Properties of Solitons. Presented at SelfOrganization of Molecular Systems: NATO Advanced Research Workshop on Molecular Self-Organization, KievWe present a general review of some aspects of the dynamics of topological solitons in 1 and 2 dimensions. We discuss some recent work on the scattering of solitons on potential obstructions and in the presence of some external fields.
A Thermodynamic Model of Microtubule Assembly and Disassembly (2009)
Journal Article

PLoS ONE, 4(8), Article e6378. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0006378Microtubules are self-assembling polymers whose dynamics are essential for the normal function of cellular processes including chromosome separation and cytokinesis. Therefore understanding what factors effect microtubule growth is fundamental to our... Read More about A Thermodynamic Model of Microtubule Assembly and Disassembly.
Scattering of sine-Gordon Breathers on a Potential Well (2009)
Journal Article
Piette, B., & Zakrzewski, W. (2009). Scattering of sine-Gordon Breathers on a Potential Well. Physical review E: Statistical, nonlinear, and soft matter physics, 79(4), Article 046603. https://doi.org/10.1103/physreve.79.046603We analyze the scattering of the classical sine-Gordon breathers on a square potential well. We show that the scattering process depends not only on the vibration frequency of the breather and its incoming speed but also on its phase as well as the d...
