Symmetry, Volume 11, Issue 4

April 2019 - 156 articles

Cover Story: The symmetry of molecular arrangement was used in recognition of supramolecular synthons, with topological similarities of crystal structures allowed to identify a supramolecular polymer with contacts above the semi-coordination distance limit. Stabilizing cooperation and destabilizing competition between coordination and hydrogen bonds were observed. View this paper.

  • Nikolay Volchanskiy

23 April 2019

The problems of simple elementary weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) appeal to extend the physical basis for nonbaryonic dark matter. Such extension involves more sophisticated dark matter candidates from physics beyond the Standard Model (...

  • Francisco Pizarro-Torres and
  • Eva Rajo-Iglesias

22 April 2019

In this work, we have analyzed different versions of periodic structures made with metallic pins located inside a parallel plate waveguide (PPWG), varying the symmetry and disposition of the pins. The analysis focuses on two main parameters related t...
