Abstract:A simplified representation of anisotropic charge distributions within proteinsWe have developed an analytical method based on Mathieu functions to solve Poisson's equation in homogeneous right elliptical cylinders. We apply the method to a detailed study of the electric-potential distribution in the bulk and on the surface of ohmic conductors of such a shape, fed by a current dipole located at any inside position. Contrary to a common opinion in electrocardiology, the potential contour map on the surface of c… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
