Chromatin is a complex of proteins and DNA found in the nuclei of eukaryotic cells. It reinforces the DNA and its topology tunes DNA transcription and gene expression. It is formed by nucleosomes, structures composed of an octameric protein core and approximately 147 base pairs of DNA. Chromatin is an extremely complex system, the behaviour of...

The elements of the coherency matrix give the strength of the components of a Mueller matrix in the coherency basis. The Z-matrix (called the polarization-coupling matrix or state-generating matrix) represents a partial sum of the coherency expansion. For transmission through a deterministic medium, the coherency elements can be used directly...
