On the evolution & equilibration of submesoscale fronts
… instability on the structure, evolution, and equilibration of the broad range of submesoscale fronts. We develop a theory for the linear growth and weakly-nonlinear saturation of symmetric instability in the Eady model. This idealised front configuration is motivated by nearly-uniform …

Equilibration of an atmosphere by geostrophic turbulence
A major question for climate studies is to quantify the role of turbulent eddy fluxes in maintaining the observed atmospheric mean state. It has been argued that eddy fluxes keep the mid-latitude atmosphere in a state that is marginally critical to the deepest mode of baroclinic instability, which …

EFFECT OF CRYOPROTECTANT EQUILIBRATION ON TRANSMEMBRANE POTENTIAL OF BOVINE OOCYTES
… physiological event during cryopreservation is equilibration to and from high concentrations of cryoprotective agents. The focus of this study was to analyze the effect of large and rapid osmotically induced volume perturbation on the transmembrane potential of bovine oocytes. The aim of this …

Universality in the Equilibration of Quenched Yukawa One Component Plasmas
… gas. The rapid quench to a UNP results in an equilibration process known as Disorder Induced Heating (DIH). Even after DIH the plasma is strongly coupled, with Γ~3. During DIH, oscillations in 1/Γ (i.e. scaled Kinetic Energy) occurring at twice the plasma frequency, ω_{pi}, are observed, …

Equilibration of a scalar field theory: a comparison of methods
The Large Hadron Collider is a huge particle collider that, among other things, collides heavy ions together at massive energies. In such heavy ion collisions a new state of matter called the Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) is formed where, in this state, quarks are no longer confined to hadrons but are …

Equilibration of deep neural networks and carrier chirality in Rashba systems
… reports results of studies conducted on the equilibration of two systems and consists of two parts: the first part deals with the optimisation of deep neural networks, whereas the second part with the decay of non-equilibrium states in strongly Rashba-coupled systems at low temperature. Deep …

Energy loss and equilibration of a highly energetic parton in QCD plasmas
… describe the full in-medium kinetic and chemical equilibration of hard particles, using a linearized effective kinetic description of QCD at leading order. Since we include $2\leftrightarrow2$ elastic processes, collinear radiation, and the back-reaction of the jet constituents onto the medium, we …

An Agent-Based Model of Cryoprotectant Equilibration in Secondary Stage Preantral Ovarian Follicles
… It is likely that cryoprotective agent (CPA) equilibration is the cryopreservation step during which TZP damage occurs. Constructing a biologically relevant model of CPA equilibration and the associated damage may allow for improved protocols as measured by increased post-thaw success rates. …

Effects of Occlusal Splints and Occlusal Equilibration on Skeletal Muscles in TMJ Patients
… and without the occlusal splint. An occlusal equilibration was performed, and then patients were again tested with and without the splint. The placebo splint never showed a significant increase in strength. The treatment splint showed a significant increase in the horizontal arm adduction and …

Interactions between aqueous fluids and silicate melts : equilibration, partitioning and complexation of trace elements
The origin and evolution of granites has been widely studied because granitoid rocks constitute a major portion of the Earth ́s crust. The formation of granitic magma is, besides temperature mainly triggered by the water content of these rocks. The presence of water in magmas plays an important …

Nonlinear equilibration of baroclinic eddies : the role of boundary layer processes and seasonal forcing
… and seasonal forcing on baroclinic eddy equilibration is studied to understand how the baroclinic adjustment is modified when taking into account these two factors. A modified [beta] plane multilevel quasi-geostrophic (QG) model with an interactive stratification and a simplified …

Effects of Nuclear Elastic Scattering and Modifications of Ion-Electron Equilibration Power on Advanced-Fuel Burns
… products and modifications of the ion-electron equilibration power on D-T and D-based advanced-fuel fusion plasmas are presented here. The processes causing the modifications to the equilibration power included here are (1) depletion of low-energy electrons by Coulomb collisions with the ions, …

Effect of different equilibration periods pre-cryopreservation on post-thaw sperm motility in Nguni and Boran bulls
… cooling periods, as well as different glycerol equilibration periods on the post-thaw motility percentages and recovery fractions of semen collected from Boran and Nguni bulls. The research was subdivided into two experiments. In each experiment different cooling and glycerol equilibration times …

Evidence of thermal equilibration in large-scale atmospheric blocking episodes over Europe and the North Atlantic during winter
Atmospheric thermal equilibration occurs when all thermal forcings diminish. Characteristics of equilibration include low diabatic heating and calm conditions throughout the atmospheric column. Large-scale planetary waves can remain in these equilibrated states for long time periods, as identified …
