The phosphorus-limited growth of cultures of the nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria Aphanizomenon and Anabaena was investigated. In conditions of nutrient and light excess Anabaena has a competitive advantage. The lower the light intensity conditions at which Aphanizomenon populations dominate are indicated for future study.

Pandemic curves, such as COVID-19, often show multiple and unpredictable contamination peaks, often called second, third and fourth waves, which are separated by wide plateaus. Here, by considering the statistical inhomogeneity of age groups, we show a quantitative understanding of the different behaviour rules to flatten a pandemic COVID-19 curve and concomitant multi-peak recurrence. The simulations are based on the Verhulst model with analytical generalized logistic equations for the limited growth. From the log–lin plot, we observe an early exponential growth proportional to . The first peak is often τgrow @ 5 d. The exponential growth is followed by a recovery phase with an exponential decay proportional to . For the characteristic time holds: . Even with isolation, outbreaks due to returning travellers can result in a recurrence of multi-peaks visible on log–lin scales. The exponential growth for the first wave is faster than for the succeeding waves, with characteristic times, τ of about 10 d. Our analysis ascertains that isolation is an efficient method in preventing contamination and enables an improved strategy for scientists, governments and the general public to timely balance between medical burdens, mental health, socio-economic and educational interests.

ABSTRACTThe kinetics of the formation of Cu3Si in Cu/a-Si diffusion couples have been investigated by means of differential scanning calorimetry and x-ray diffraction. Multilayered composites of average stoichiometry Cu3Si were prepared by sputter deposition with individual layer thicknesses varying in different samples between 2 and 100 nm. We observed diffusion limited growth of Cu3 Si upon annealing these diffusion couples below 500 K. Reaction constants were measured for a temperature range of 455 to 495 K for thicknesses of growing Cu3Si between 2.6 and 80 nm. The temperature dependence of the reaction constant, k2, was characterized as k2 = k0 exp(− Ea/kbT) with activation energy, Ea = 1.0 eV/atom and pre-factor, k0 = 1.9×10−3 cm2/s.
