Magnetic field measurement with Thomson Scattering

Counter-streaming plasma has been featured in many experiments due to its prevalence in astronomy around supernova shocks, as well as in other lab plasma applications. These plasmas develop magnetic fields which are interesting due to their ability to accelerate particles as well as their roll in the formation of collisionless shocks. These fields are normally […]

Modeling DNA Adducts as Cancer Diagnostic and Therapeutic Markers: Computational Chemistry Studies of the Structure-Function Relationships of DG-C8-A?C Adducts

Recent nucleic acids research has focused on the formation of genotoxic DNA adducts as covalent modifications of DNA that often result from carcinogen exposure; human-made chemicals can also cause DNA damage through bulky DNA adduct formation. DNA adducts are not only markers of carcinogenic exposure but also alter the regulation of oncogene transcription and standard […]

Computer Modeling of Protein-Nanoparticles Interactions for Nanomedicinal Applications: Binding Thermodynamics of Endohedral Metallofullerenes (Gd@C60) and Toll-like Receptor 5

carbon-cage nanoparticles, provide a meaningful approach to nanomedicine owing to their resistance to metabolism and kinetic stability, and confinement prevents direct binding of the toxic metal ions to cellular components. Conjugation of endohedral metallofullerenes with proteins could overcome many physiological issues such as low biocompatibility, and the interaction of these supramolecular assemblies warrants further investigation. […]

Optical properties and climate impact of wildfire emissions

Biomass burning is the largest source of carbonaceous aerosol in the atmosphere. Biomass burning aerosol can alter the Earth’s radiative balance by absorption and scattering of solar radiation, resulting in a significant impact on global climate. However, because of the complexity of biomass burning aerosol, the magnitude of this climate effect is still uncertain. The […]
