Adaptation of populations takes place with the occurrence and subsequent fixation of mutations that confer some selective
advantage
to the individuals which acquire it. For this reason, the study of the process of fixation of advantageous mutations has a
long history
in the population genetics literature. Particularly, the previous investigations aimed to find out the main evolutionary forces
affecting the strength of natural selection in the populations.
In the current work, we investigate the dynamics of fixation of beneficial mutations in a subdivided population. The subpopulations
(demes)
can exchange migrants
among their neighbors, in a migration network which is assumed to have either a random graph or a scale-free topology. We
have observed that the migration rate
drastically affects the dynamics of mutation fixation, despite of the fact that the probability of fixation is invariant on
the
migration rate, accordingly to
Maruyama's conjecture. In addition, we have noticed a topological dependence of the adaptive evolution of the population when
clonal interference
becomes effective. 相似文献

Incident intensity, defined by the amount of particles deposited per pulse, is an important parameter in the film growth process of pulsed laser deposition (PLD). Different from previous models, we investigate the irreversible and reversible growth processes by using a kinetic Monte Carlo method and find that island density and film morphology strongly depend on pulse intensity. At higher pulse intensities, lots of adatoms instantaneously diffuse on the substrate surface, and then nucleation easily occurs between the moving adatoms resulting in more smaller-size islands. In contrast, at the lower pulse intensities, nucleation event occurs preferentially between the single adatom and existing islands rather than forming new islands, and therefore the average island size becomes larger in this case. Additionally, our results show that substrate temperature plays an important role in film growth. In particular, it can determine the films shape and weaken the effect of pulse intensity on film growth at the lower temperatures by controlling the mobility rate of atoms. Our results can match the related theoretical and experimental results. 相似文献

The spin structure of protons will be discussed by using MIT-bag model and considering constituent quarks to be combined from current quarks and gluons. It will be shown that the gluonic degrees of freedom play an important role in prediction of the recent EMC results. 相似文献

We report model calculations on DNA single strands which describe the equilibrium dynamics and kinetics of hairpin formation
and melting. Modeling is at the level of single bases. Strand rigidity is described in terms of simple polymer models; alternative
calculations performed using the freely rotating chain and the discrete Kratky-Porod models are reported. Stem formation is
modeled according to the Peyrard-Bishop-Dauxois Hamiltonian. The kinetics of opening and closing is described in terms of
a diffusion-controlled motion in an effective free-energy landscape. Melting profiles, dependence of melting temperature on
loop length, and kinetic time scales are in semiquantitative agreement with experimental data obtained from fluorescent DNA
beacons forming poly(T) loops. Variation in strand rigidity is not sufficient to account for the large activation enthalpy
of closing and the strong loop length dependence observed in hairpins forming poly(A) loops. Implications for modeling single
strands of DNA or RNA are discussed. 相似文献

The unzipping transition under the influence of external force of a dsDNA molecule has been studied using the Peyrard-Bishop Hamiltonian. The critical force Fc(T) for unzipping calculated in the constant force ensemble is found to depend on the potential parameter k which measures the stiffness associated with a single strand of DNA and on D, the well depth of the on-site potential representing the strength of hydrogen bonds in a base pair. The dependence on temperature of Fc(T) is found to be (TD - T)1/2 (TD being the thermal denaturation temperature) with Fc(TD) = 0 and Fc(0) =
. We used the constant extension ensemble to calculate the average force F(y) required to stretch a base pair a y distance apart. The value of F(y) needed to stretch a base pair located far away from the ends of a dsDNA molecule is found twice the value of the force needed to stretch a base pair located at one of the ends to the same distance for y 1.0 . The force F(y) in both cases is found to have a very large value for y 0.2 compared to the critical force found from the constant force ensemble to which F(y) approaches for large values of y. It is shown that the value of F(y) at the peak depends on the value of k which measures the energy barrier associated with the reduction in DNA strand rigidity as one passes from dsDNA to ssDNA and on the value of the depth of the on-site potential. The effect of defects on the position and height of the peak in the F(y) curve is investigated by replacing some of the base pairs including the one being stretched by defect base pairs. The formation and behaviour of a loop of Y shape when one of the ends base pair is stretched and a bubble of ssDNA with the shape of an eye when a base pair far from ends is stretched are investigated. 相似文献

We study a continuum model for epitaxial growth of thin films in which the slope of mound structure of film surface increases. This model is a diffusion equation for the surface height profile h which is assumed to satisfy the periodic boundary condition. The equation happens to possess a Liapunov or free-energy functional. This functional consists of the term | h|2, which represents the surface diffusion, and - log (1 + | h|2), which describes the effect of kinetic asymmetry in the adatom attachment-detachment. We first prove for large time t that the interface width---the standard deviation of the height profile---is bounded above by O(t1/2), the averaged gradient is bounded above by O(t1/4), and the averaged energy is bounded below by O(- log t). We then consider a small coefficient 2 of | h|2 with = 1/L and L the linear size of the underlying system, and study the energy asymptotics in the large system limit 0. We show that global minimizers of the free-energy functional exist for each > 0, the L2-norm of the gradient of any global minimizer scales as O(1/), and the global minimum energy scales as O( log ). The existence of global energy minimizers and a scaling argument are used to construct a sequence of equilibrium solutions with different wavelengths. Finally, we apply our minimum energy estimates to derive bounds in terms of the linear system size L for the saturation interface width and the corresponding saturation time. 相似文献

Opposite to most other deposition methods, the dominating nucleation and growth mechanism during ion-beam deposition of energetic
ions in the range between 10 eV and 10 keV occurs in a region of a few nanometers below the surface of the growing film. This
process is called ‘subplantation’ – emphasizing the implantation of ions into a subsurface region. Ordering and phase formation
is a result of the interaction of the deposited ions with the solid state that takes place within the short time scale of
femto- and picoseconds. This extreme non-equilibrium process can result in metastable amorphous or crystalline structures.
This review will present several examples of the influence of the deposition parameters on the properties of diamond-like
materials synthesized using mass-selected ion-beam deposition. Furthermore, several existing models of the deposition process
will be presented and critically discussed.

The growth of Si oxide by means of a cyclic radio-frequency (rf) plasma oxidation process has been explored in a low temperature range of 100-200 °C. The growth mechanism exhibits Cabrera-Mott (CM) oxidation, that is, the transport of mobile ionic species is assisted by an electric field. The low activation energy of 0.3 eV is attributed to the small size of O− and the assistance of the electric field. The oxide becomes off-stoichiometric as one approaches to the exterior surface of the oxide layer. 相似文献

The growth rate of ZnO nanowires grown epitaxially on GaN/sapphire substrates is studied. An inverse proportional relation between diameter and length of the nanowires is observed, i.e., nanowires with smaller diameters grow faster than larger ones. This unexpected result is attributed to surface diffusion of ZnO admolecules along the sidewalls of the nanowires. In addition, the unique c-axis growth of ZnO nanowires, which does not require a catalytic particle at the tip of the growing nanowires is discussed by taking into account polarity, surface free energy, and ionicity. Activation energies of the nanowire growth are determined as well. 相似文献

The Pt-Pd and Pd-Ag nanostructured bimetallic films on porous α-Al2O3 substrates are successfully synthesized by chemical deposition using lyotropic liquid crystalline templating strategy. The co-reduction of two metallic species in the presence of liquid crystalline phase by hydrazine hydrate produces hexagonal nanostructured Pt-Pd and lamellar nanostructured Pd-Ag films. Low-angle X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) studies show the ordered nanostructure of both Pt-Pd and Pd-Ag films. The energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) and wide-angle XRD analyses of the bimetallic films have verified the coexistence and uniform distribution of constituent metallic species. By taking into account of catalytic activities, well-defined nanochannels and higher surface areas, the nanostructured bimetallic films might have application potential in microreactors. 相似文献
