A Bragg peak from B-form fiber DNA has been measured as a function of temperature, and its widths and integrated intensities have been interpreted using the Peyrard-Bishop-Dauxois model with only one free parameter. The experiment is unique, as it gives spatial correlation along the molecule through the melting transition where other techniques cannot.Adobe PDF[4]0031-9007https://hdl.handle.net/10442/1285310.1103/PhysRevLett.106.048101engAmerican Physical SocietyPhysical Review LettersPhysics, MultidisciplinaryThermal Denaturation of DNA Studied with Neutron ScatteringΆρθρο σε επιστημονικό περιοδικό2011-01-24Δημοσίευση σε περιοδικόPublication in journalΦυσικήPhysical sciencesFrascati 42Επιστημονικό άρθροScientific articleΕθνικό Ίδρυμα Ερευνών (ΕΙΕ)Greek Aggregator OpenArchives.gr | National Documentation Centre (EKT)
