Numerical simulations of kinetic Alfvén waves to study spectral index in solar wind turbulence and particle heating
We present numerical simulations of the modified nonlinear Schrödinger equation satisfied by kinetic Alfvén waves (KAWs) leading to the formation of magnetic filaments at different times. The relevance of thes...

Transient Evolution of Nonlinear Localized Coherent Structures of Kinetic Alfvén Waves
We present numerical simulations of kinetic Alfvén waves (KAWs) and inertial Alfvén waves (IAWs) applicable to the solar wind, the solar corona, and the auroral regions, respectively, leading to the formation...

Ion-Acoustic Wave Generation by Two Kinetic Alfvén Waves and Particle Heating
In this paper we have investigated the beat wave excitation of an ion-acoustic wave at the difference frequency of two kinetic (or shear) Alfvén waves propagating in a magnetized plasma with β<1 (β=8π ...

Mode of uptake of sterol by Arthrobacter simplex
The mechanism of uptake of water-insoluble β-sitosterol by a newly isolated strain of Arthrobacter simplex SS-7 was studied. The production of an extracellular sterol-pseudosolubilizing protein during growth of A...

Uptake of volatilen-alkanes byPseudomonas PG-I
Using a bacterial speciesPseudomonas PG-1, evidence has been obtained which indicates that uptake ofn-pentane ton-octane by microbial cells takes place primarily from the gas phase either directly orvia the aqueo...

Factors limiting the microbial conversion of sterols to 17-ketosteroids in the presence of metal chelate inhibitors
Bioconversion of sterols to 17-ketosteroids by anArthrobacter species occurred in the presence of hydrophobic metal-chelating agents but the production of 17-ketosteroids (17-KS) was seriously limited by the rapi...
