The advent of velocity map imaging (VMI) has provided the opportunity to vastly improve photoelectron spectroscopy. From the humble beginnings 1962, where the first gas-phase …
Photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) is a powerful technique to investigate the electronic structure and chemical bonding of gaseous anions and the corresponding neutrals upon electron detachment. …
The overwhelming dependence on fossil fuels for supplying the world’s energy needs is unsustainable, and the rapid depletion of these non-renewable resources has motivated investigations …
Hydrogen polysulfides (H2Sn) have emerged as significant physiological mediators closely associated with hydrogen sulfide (H2S) signaling. Due to their alpha effect, H2Sn exhibit greater nucleophilicity …
The brain's neurotransmitter system is of vital importance to the proper functioning of the brain. In particular, neurotransmitter dopamine has drawn considerable research interest in …
In 1970, G. Ohloff et al. (Helv. Chim. Acta. 1970) observed an unexpected product when preforming a Wharton reaction, i.e. reaction of an α,β-epoxy ketone …
The release of toxic substances from chemical manufacturing has been shown to have negative effects on the environment and human health. Recent studies have linked …
Nitrogen oxides (NOx=NO+NO2) play a key role in atmospheric chemistry, contributing to production of ground-level ozone, aerosol chemistry, and acid deposition through the conversion to …
Streptomycetes are a large group of Gram-positive, soil-dwelling bacteria that have evolved remarkable metabolic capabilities for survival in a nutrient-poor and a biodiverse ecological niche. …
Theranostics is the ability to diagnose with greater detail to disease properties and tailor specialized therapeutic regiments to a patient's unique case. Advancements in nanoparticle …
Problems like describing the extent of order in isotropic liquid crystals, the extend of magnetization in magnetic systems and finding polymer end-to-end distances, can be …
Alkenones are one of the best biomarkers for paleo-temperature reconstructions. Despite numerous successful applications of alkenones, there are a number of outstanding scientific problems. 1) …
Diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) is one of the most accurate techniques available for calculating the electronic properties of molecules and materials, yet it often remains …
The ability to image, move, and heat magnetic nanomaterials at a distance has extraordinary promise for many biomedical and industrial applications. Realizing the promise, however, …
Approximately half of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) procedures require intravenously administered contrast agents image enhancement and greater diagnostic precision. The current clinical standard for MRI …
Structural rearrangements within single molecules occur on ultrafast time scales. Many aspects of molecular dynamics, such as the energy flow through excited states, have been …
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) of proteins can have significant effects on different biological processes in which the proteins are involved. Analysis of protein post-translational modifications (PTMs) …
