Self-Organization and Forces in the Mitotic Spindle

Friday September 16th, 2016 Ivan Balog 0

ABSTRACT: At the onset of division, the cell forms a spindle, a precise self-constructed micromachine composed of microtubules and the  associated proteins, which divides the chromosomes between the two nascent daughter cells. The spindle arises from self-organization of  microtubules and chromosomes, whose different types of motion help them explore the […]

GPD phenomenology and DVCS fitting – Entering the high-precision era

Friday September 16th, 2016 Ivan Balog 0

ABSTRACT:  We review the phenomenological framework for accessing Generalized Parton Distributions (GPDs) using measurements of Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering (DVCS) from a proton target. We describe various GPD models and tting procedures, emphasizing speci c challenges posed both by the internal structure and properties of the GPD functions and by their […]
