The diversity of structures in the Universe (from the smallest galaxies to the largest superclusters) has formed under the pull of gravity from the tiny primordial perturbations that we see imprinted in the cosmic microwave background. A quantitative descr ...
The interaction of light with a material's electronic system creates an out-of-equilibrium (non-thermal) distribution of optically excited electrons. Non-equilibrium dynamics relaxes this distribution on an ultrafast timescale to a hot Fermi-Dirac distribu ...
We employ Cold Ion Spectroscopy (CIS) in conjunction with high-Field Asymmetric Waveform Ion Mobility Spectrometry (FAIMS) to study the peptide bradykinin in its doubly protonated charge state ([bk+2H]2+). Using FAIMS we partially separate the electrospray ...
The sawtooth control mechanism in plasmas employing toroidally propagating ion cyclotron resonance waves is extended. The asymmetrically distributed energetic passing ions are shown to modify the ideal internal kink mode when the position of the minority i ...
