Solitonic mode in DNA dynamics and impact of viscosity

Slobodan Zdravkovic

We explain a solitonic mode in DNA dynamics relying on the Peyrard-Bishop-Dauxois model (PBD). This mode happens when the envelope and the carrier components of the modulated solitonic wave are equal. Particular attention is devoted to an impact of viscosity. One relationship for the intrinsic parameters of DNA dynamics is derived.
