The protein-like chain is pulled away from the attractive surface slowly with elastic force acting on it. Strong adsorption interaction and no adsorption interaction are both considered. We calculate the characteristic ratio and shape factor of protein-like chains in the process of elongation. The conformation change of the protein-like chain is well depicted. The shape of chain changes from “rod” to “sphere” at the beginning of elongation. Then, the shape changes from “sphere” to “rod”. In the end, the shape becomes a “sphere” as the chain leaves away from the surface. In the meantime, we discuss average Helmoholtz free energy per bond, average energy per bond, average adsorbed energy per bond, average α-helical energy per bond, average β-sheet energy per bond and average contact energy per bond. On the other hand, elastic force is also studied. It is found that elastic force has a long plateau during the tensile elongation when there exists adsorption interaction. This result is consistent with SMFS experiment of general polymers. Energy contribution to elastic force and contact energy contribution to elastic force are both discussed. These investigations can provide some insights into the elastic behaviors of adsorbed protein chains.展开更多

The positive parity spectra of the ground state, quasi-β and quasi-γ bands are reproduced well. The staggering in ^124-130Xe are almost completely removed and the ? band agree well with the experiment data, even for the high-spin quasi-3 states. The key quantities of the collective structure evolution, including level energies, the B(E2) transition branching ratios, and the M1 excitations to 11^+ mixer-symmetry states are analyzed by comparing with the experimental data. The parameters for representation of the Oπν(6) and SUπν^*(3) features in isotopes are examined. Both experimental data and theoretical results show that the shape phase transition of ^124-134Xe isotopic chain is from the SUπν^* (3) (triaxial rotation) to the Uπν(5) (vibration motion) with a considerable constituent of the Oπν(6) symmetry (γ-unstable rotation), where the shape phase transition rapidly takes place between the neutron number N = 76 and N = 78.展开更多
