A Periodic West Nile Virus Transmission Model with Stage-Structured Host Population by Junli Liu, Tailei Zhang, Qiaoling Chen

“…We first introduce the basic reproduction number R0 for this model and then show that the disease-free periodic solution is globally asymptotically stable when R0<1, while there exists at least one positive periodic solution and that the disease is uniformly persistent if R0>1. …”

Synthesis and Antioxidant Activities of Novel 5-Chlorocurcumin, Complemented by Semiempirical Calculations by Ahmed A. Al-Amiery, Abdul Amir H. Kadhum, Hasan R. Obayes, Abu Bakar Mohamad

“…The newly synthesised compound was characterised by spectral studies (IR, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR). The free radical scavenging activity of 5-chlorocurcumin has been determined by measuring interaction with the stable free radical DPPH, and 5-chlorocurcumin has shown encouraging antioxidant activities. …”

Statistical mechanics and machine learning of the α-Rényi ensemble by Andrew Jreissaty, Juan Carrasquilla

“…We study the statistical physics of the classical Ising model in the so-called α-Rényi ensemble, a finite-temperature thermal state approximation that minimizes a modified free energy based on the α-Rényi entropy. We begin by characterizing its critical behavior in mean-field theory in different regimes of the Rényi index α. …”
