Effect of long-range interactions on the scaling of the noisy Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation
1Department of Physics and Institute of Theoretical Physics, Beijing Normal University, Beijing 100875, People's Republic of China.
Abstract:
The effects of long-range interactions on the scaling properties of the noisy Kuramoto-Sivashinsky (KS) equation are studied by the dynamic renormalization-group technique. It is found that the presence of long-range nonlinearity in the KS equation can produce new stable fixed points with varying critical exponents that depend on both the long-range interaction parameter rho and the substrate dimension d.

As Δν decreases and the signals move closer, the doublets appear increasingly distorted. The intensities of the inner lines increase at the cost of those of the outer lines as the signals are slanted or...
¹H NMR: Long-Range Coupling
In alkenes, spin information is communicated via σ–π overlap, as seen in allylic (four-bond) and homoallylic (five-bond) couplings. These coupling interactions are stronger when the σ bond is parallel to the alkene π orbitals.
