This book is an introduction to the applications in nonequilibrium statistical mechanics of
chaotic dynamics, and also to the use of techniques in statistical mechanics important for an …

Natural killer cells in the mouse express class 1 MHC‐specific inhibitory receptors of the Ly49
protein family. The receptors mediate inhibition of the lysis of tumor cells and normal cells, …

Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I and II molecules are highly polymorphic proteins
that bind and present foreign peptides to the clonally distributed αβ receptors (TCR) of T …

Velocity correlation functions ρ (t) in hard-disk and hard-sphere fluids are discussed on the
basis of the kinetic theory of gases. It is found in d dimensions that ρ (t)∼ α (tt 0)− d 2 with α= …

The formation of the repertoire of mouse natural killer (NK) cell receptors for major
histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules was investigated by determining the …

The long-time behavior of velocity-correlation functions ρ (d)(t) characteristic for self-diffusion,
viscosity, and heat conductivity is calculated for a gas of hard disks or hard spheres on the …

T cell receptor (TCR) signaling triggered by recognition of self-major histocompatibility
complex (MHC) ligands has been proposed to maintain the viability of naïve T cells and to …

In T cells, the stochasticity of protein expression could contribute to the useful diversification
of biological functions within a clonal population or interfere with accurate antigen …

Many macroscopic dynamical phenomena, for example in hydrodynamics and oscillatory
chemical reactions, have been observed to display erratic or random time evolution, in spite of …

A kinetic equation is derived that describes the nonequilibrium quasiparticle distribution
function for a dilute, inhomogeneous Bose gas below its λ-point. The derivation is based on a …
