Scaling in a SU(2)/Z_3 model of cosmic superstring networks (2006)
Journal Article

Motivated by recent developments in superstring theory in the cosmological context, we examine a field theory which contains string networks with 3-way junctions. We perform numerical simulations of this model, identify the length scales of the netwo... Read More about Scaling in a SU(2)/Z_3 model of cosmic superstring networks.

The recognition of local DNA conformation by the human papillomavirus type 6 E2 protein (2006)
Journal Article

The E2 proteins are transcription/replication factors from papillomaviruses. Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) can be broadly divided in two groups; low-risk HPV subtypes cause benign warts while high-risk HPVs give rise to cervical cancer. Although a ra...
