How different are the properties of critical adsorption of polyampholytes and polyelectrolytes onto charged surfaces? How important are the details of polyampholyte charge distribution on the onset of critical adsorption transition? What are the scaling relations governing the dependence of critical surface charge density on salt concentration in the surrounding solution? Here, we employ Metropolis Monte Carlo simulations and uncover the scaling relations for critical adsorption for quenched periodic and random charge distributions along the polyampholyte chains. We also evaluate and discuss the dependence of the adsorbed layer width on solution salinity and details of the charge distribution. We contrast our findings to the known results for polyelectrolyte adsorption onto oppositely charged surfaces, in particular, their dependence on electrolyte concentration.

Non-Gaussian displacement distributions in models of heterogeneous active particle dynamics

Elisabeth Lemaitre, Igor M. Sokolov, Ralf Metzler, Aleksei Chechkin

Summary: We study the effects of randomly distributed diffusivities and speeds in two models for active particle dynamics. We find that non-Gaussian displacement distributions, including Cauchy-type and exponential shapes, emerge in these models in the long time limit. The resulting shapes of the displacement distributions with distributed diffusivities for the active models are in striking contrast to passive diffusion models. Additionally, we demonstrate that the case with active-noise agrees well with measured data for the displacement distribution of social amoeba.

Random Walks on Networks with Centrality-Based Stochastic Resetting

Kiril Zelenkovski, Trifce Sandev, Ralf Metzler, Ljupco Kocarev, Lasko Basnarkov

Summary: We present a refined approach to explore complex networks with stochastic resetting based on node centrality measures. This approach allows a random walker to jump not only to a deliberately chosen resetting node, but also to a node that can reach all other nodes faster. By considering the resetting site as the geometric center, we calculate the Global Mean First Passage Time (GMFPT) using Markov chain theory to determine the search performance of the random walk with resetting. We compare different nodes as resetting sites by comparing their GMFPT values.

MassCCS: A High-Performance Collision Cross-Section Software for Large Macromolecular Assemblies

Samuel Cajahuaringa, Daniel L. Z. Caetano, Leandro N. N. Zanotto, Guido Araujo, Munir S. S. Skaf

Summary: Ion mobility mass spectrometry (IM-MS) techniques are valuable for structural characterization of biomolecular systems. However, interpreting IM-MS data is often challenging due to conformational isomerism. To address this, we developed MassCCS, an open-source code that computes the collision cross-section (CCS) of molecules using atomic and molecular buffer gas particles. MassCCS is highly accurate and efficient, especially for large macromolecular assemblies. Extensive tests showed its reliability, scalability, and performance. The code is freely available at https://github.com/cces-cepid/massccs.

Emergent anomalous transport and non-Gaussianity in a simple mobile-immobile model: the role of advection

Timo J. Doerries, Ralf Metzler, Aleksei Chechkin

Summary: This article examines the transport of diffusive particles switching between mobile and immobile states with finite rates. The study focuses on the impact of advection on density functions and mean squared displacements (MSDs). Significant anomalous diffusion with cubic scaling in time of the MSD is found at intermediate time scales for high Peclet numbers. This cubic scaling is present for both short and long mean residence times in the immobile state. The study also reveals the newly observed phenomenon of advection-induced subdiffusion for immobilized tracers in the presence of high Peclet numbers. Additionally, the effective advection velocity is reduced in the long-time limit, while the MSD is enhanced by advection. The physical mechanisms behind the emergence of non-Gaussian density functions and the characteristics of the MSD are explored.

Stochastic processes in a confining harmonic potential in the presence of static and dynamic measurement noise

Philipp G. Meyer, Ralf Metzler

Summary: In this study, we investigate the overdamped dynamics of various stochastic processes under confinement of an harmonic potential. We analyze the impact of both static and dynamic noise on the dynamics of pure processes and find that noise poses challenges for process inference. We observe that static noise leads to subdiffusive behavior, while dynamic noise results in superdiffusive behavior.

A first passage under resetting approach to income dynamics

Petar Jolakoski, Arnab Pal, Trifce Sandev, Ljupco Kocarev, Ralf Metzler, Viktor Stojkoski

Summary: Detailed knowledge of individual income dynamics is crucial for investigating the existence of the American dream and understanding the potential for improving income during one's working life. This study develops a framework that disaggregates the temporal properties of income at the individual level, overcoming the limitations of previous methods that rely on transition matrices. The framework, based on the concept of First Passage Time in a stochastic process, provides improved and more granular estimates of income dynamics. The results contribute to our understanding of income dynamics in real economies and offer tools for policy interventions.

Minimal model of diffusion with time changing Hurst exponent

Jakub Slezak, Ralf Metzler

Summary: We introduce a stochastic process called incremental multifractional Brownian motion (IMFBM), which behaves locally like fractional Brownian motion with varying Hurst exponent and diffusivity. We derive formulas for the mean squared displacement and correlations of IMFBM, which are simple and elementary. We also provide simulation comparisons and estimation methods for IMFBM. This mathematically simple process is valuable in understanding anomalous diffusion dynamics in changing environments, such as viscoelastic systems or actively moving particles.

Time-dependent probability density function for partial resetting dynamics

Costantino Di Bello, Aleksei Chechkin, Alexander K. Hartmann, Zbigniew Palmowski, Ralf Metzler

Summary: Stochastic resetting is a rapidly developing topic that studies the occasional reset of a diffusing particle to its starting point and its effects on optimal first-passage times to a target. The concept of partial resetting has been established and analyzed, and here we further develop a technique to determine the time-dependent probability density function (PDF) for Markov processes with partial resetting. We obtain an exact representation of the PDF for general symmetric Lévy flights with stable index 0 < a ≤ 2, and for Cauchy and Brownian motions (a = 1, 2), the PDF can be expressed in terms of elementary functions in position space. We also determine the stationary PDF and observe intricate crossover behaviors as a function of time in our numerical analysis.

Michal Balcerek, Agnieszka Wylomanska, Krzysztof Burnecki, Ralf Metzler, Diego Krapf

Summary: Many complex systems, including molecules in living cells, exhibit long-term memory and dynamic heterogeneities in their trajectories. However, the analysis and modeling of these systems are still poorly understood. This study contributes to tackling this problem by using an integral representation of Mandelbrot's fractional Brownian motion and analyzing two types of switching fractional Brownian motion.

Time-fractional Caputo derivative versus other integrodifferential operators in generalized Fokker-Planck and generalized Langevin equations

Qing Wei, Wei Wang, Hongwei Zhou, Ralf Metzler, Aleksei Chechkin

Summary: This paper investigates the tools of fractional diffusion and Fokker-Planck equations for describing anomalous diffusion in complex systems, and compares the dynamics of different integrodifferential operators in the Fokker-Planck and Langevin equations. The results demonstrate that the integrodifferential operators with exponential and Mittag-Leffler kernels are not suitable for the physically relevant diffusion scenarios discussed, while the conformable and Caputo operators are more appropriate.

Nonergodicity of confined superdiffusive fractional Brownian motion

Yingjie Liang, Wei Wang, Ralf Metzler, Andrey G. Cherstvy

Summary: Using stochastic simulations and analytics, this study investigates the nonergodicity of box-confined fractional Brownian motion under both subdiffusive and superdiffusive Hurst exponents. It is observed that at H > 1/2, the non-equivalence between ensemble-averaged and time-averaged mean-squared displacements (TAMSDs) is most pronounced, with a wide range of individual TAMSDs at H -> 1, and two distinct short-lag-time TAMSD exponents.

Yuandong Xu, Haoyang Feng, Chaoyang Dong, Yuqing Yang, Meng Zhou, Yajun Wei, Hui Guo, Yaqing Wei, Jishan Su, Yingying Ben, Xia Zhang

Summary: Hollow MoS2 cubes and spheres were successfully synthesized using a one-step hydrothermal method with the hard template method. The hollow MoS2 cubes exhibited higher specific capacitance and energy density compared to the hollow MoS2 spheres. The symmetrical supercapacitors assembled with these hollow structures showed good performance and high capacity retention after multiple cycles. These findings suggest that controlling the pore structure and surface characteristics of MoS2 is crucial for enhancing its electrochemical properties.

Insights into the multi-functional lithium difluoro(oxalate)borate additive in boosting the Li-ion reaction kinetics for Li3VO4 anodes

Miaomiao Zhang, Cunyuan Pei, Qiqi Xiang, Lintao Liu, Zhongxu Dai, Huijuan Ma, Shibing Ni

Summary: The design of a solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) plays a crucial role in improving the electrochemical performance of anode materials. In this study, lithium difluoro(oxalate)borate (LiDFOB) is used as an electrolyte additive to form a protective SEI film on Li3VO4 (LVO) anodes. The addition of LiDFOB results in a dense, uniform, stable, and LiF-richer SEI, which enhances the Li-ion storage kinetics. The generated SEI also prevents further decomposition of the electrolyte and maintains the morphology of LVO anodes during charge/discharge processes. This work demonstrates the effectiveness of LiDFOB as a multi-functional additive for LiPF6 electrolytes and provides insights into SEI construction for high-performance LVO anodes.

ClO-driven degradation of graphene oxide: new insights from DFT calculations

S. L. Romo-Avila, D. Marquez-Ruiz, R. A. Guirado-Lopez

Summary: In this study, we used density functional theory (DFT) calculations to investigate the interaction between model graphene oxide (GO) nanostructures and chlorine monoxide ClO. We aimed to understand the role of this highly oxidizing species in breaking C-C bonds and forming significant holes on GO sheets. Our results showed that C-C bonds in a single graphene oxide sheet can be broken through a simple mechanism involving the dissociation of two chemically attached ClO molecules. The formation of carbonyl groups and holes on the GO surface was also observed. This study provides important insights into the degradation of carbon nanotubes and the stability of GO during the myeloperoxidase (MPO) catalytic cycle.

Composition dependence of X-ray stability and degradation mechanisms at lead halide perovskite single crystal surfaces

Alberto Garcia-Fernandez, Birgit Kammlander, Stefania Riva, Hakan Rensmo, Ute B. Cappel

Summary: In this study, the X-ray stability of five different lead halide perovskite compositions (MAPbI3, MAPbCl3, MAPbBr3, FAPbBr3, CsPbBr3) was investigated using photoelectron spectroscopy. Different degradation mechanisms and resistance to X-ray were observed depending on the crystal composition. Overall, perovskite compositions based on the MA+ cation were found to be less stable than those based on FA+ or Cs+. Metallic lead formation was most easily observed in the chloride perovskite, followed by bromide, and very little in MAPbI3. Multiple degradation processes were identified for the bromide compositions, including ion migration, formation of volatile and solid products, as well as metallic lead. CsBr was formed as a solid degradation product on the surface of CsPbBr3.

The effect of temperature and oxygen partial pressure on the concentration of iron and manganese ions in La1/3Sr2/3Fe1-xMnxO3-δ

Sergey S. Nikitin, Alexander D. Koryakov, Elizaveta A. Antipinskaya, Alexey A. Markov, Mikhail V. Patrakeev

Summary: The stability of La1/3Sr2/3Fe1-xMnxO3-delta, a perovskite-type oxide, under reducing conditions is dependent on the manganese content. Increasing the manganese content leads to a decrease in stability. The behavior of iron and manganese in the oxide shows distinct differences, which can be attributed to the difference in the enthalpy of oxidation reactions. Additionally, the change in the La/Sr ratio affects the concentration of iron and manganese ions.
