The deposition of large amounts of energy in a molecule by XUV/X-ray photon absorption or fast-ion collision, triggers a set of complex ultrafast electronic and nuclear dynamics that allow a deep understanding and control of chemical reactivity. This themed issue showcases the research performed in the understanding, monitoring and control of these processes.

Powders and divided solids are widely used in industry as intermediate or finished products in many fields: foods, cosmetics, construction, pharmaceuticals, transport, electronics and, of course, nuclear energy. Optimizing their use requires control of processing based on an understanding of the phenomena involved (sintering, chemical reactivity, purity, etc.). Modeling and understanding these ...

Purpose Detection of antinuclear antibodies has traditionally been performed by immunofluorescence (IFA) on fixed culture cells or tissues with reactivity being reported as a fluorescence pattern associated to one or more nuclear antigens. For this study, we compared results from IFA testing with a multiplex antinuclear antibody assay on a panel of patient serum samples previously evaluated by ...

[1] Photochemical and microbial transformations of DOM were evaluated in headwater streams draining forested and human-modified lands (pasture, cropland, and urban development) by laboratory incubations. Changes in DOC concentrations, DOC isotopic signatures, and DOM fluorescence properties were measured to assess the amounts, sources, ages, and properties of reactive and refractory DOM under t...

Hydrodynamic instabilities caused by shock-flame interactions are a fundamental challenge in the accurate prediction of explosion loads context nuclear and process plant safety. To investigate Richtmyer–Meshkov instability, series three-dimensional numerical simulations performed, including lean, stoichiometric, nonreactive homogeneous H2/Air mixtures. The equivalence ratio has strong influence...

Sera from four patients with systemic lupus erythematosus containing antibodies that yield nuclear rim staining of HEp-2 cells by indirect immunofluorescence were identified and characterized. Each serum contained autoantibodies reacting strongly with lamin B on western blots. One of the four sera displayed weaker reactivity with lamins A and C, while the other three displayed only minimal reac...
