The effect of Coulomb interactions of thermoelectric characteristics of Marcus molecular junctions

We present a theoretical study focused on the influence of Coulomb interactions on thermoelectric properties of molecular junctions assuming that electron transport is strongly affected by thermalized phonon modes in the molecular ambient. It is shown that the combined effect of...

Vaccination Unavailability or Delayed Vaccination: Two Plausible Pandemic Scenarios Applied to the COVID-19 Outbreak in Puerto Rico

This study examines two plausible pandemic scenarios, vaccine unavailability and delayed vaccination, using deterministic compartmental models calibrated to the COVID-19 pandemic in Puerto Rico. An SEIsIaHRD model for the pre-vaccination phase and an SVEIsIaHRD model (susceptible...
