Assessing graphene nanopores for sequencing DNA.
TL;DR: These simulations suggest that strand sequencing of DNA by measuring the ionic current blockades in graphene nanopores may be possible, given that the conformation of DNA nucleotides in the nanopore can be controlled through precise engineering of the nanopORE surface.

TL;DR: Using molecular dynamics simulations, it is shown that high-intensity optical hot spots produced by a metallic nanostructure can arrest DNA translocation through a solid-state nanopore, thus providing a physical knob for controlling the DNA speed.

Driven magnetic particles on a fluid surface: pattern assisted surface flows.
TL;DR: A model based on the amplitude equation for surface waves coupled to the large-scale hydrod dynamic mean flow equation describes both the formation of the dynamic snake patterns and the induced structure of the experimentally observed hydrodynamic flows.

Model for dynamic self-assembled magnetic surface structures
TL;DR: The model reproduces most of the observed phenomenology, including spontaneous formation of magnetic snakelike structures, generation of large-scale vortex flows, complex ferromagnetic-antiferromagnetic ordering of the snake, and self-propulsion of bead-snake hybrids.

Formation of Quantum Phase Slip Pairs in Superconducting Nanowires
TL;DR: The discovery of a regime in which transitions that conserve parity are much more likely to occur than those that do not opens the door to parity-based information processing proposals to protect quantum information.
