Ions are everywhere, from our daily surroundings to the cosmic expanse. As common table salt (NaCl) dissolves into sodium (Na +) and chloride (Cl-) ions in water, it imparts a salty taste. Once ...

Researchers have achieved real-time capture of the ionization process and subsequent structural changes in gas-phase molecules through an enhanced mega-electronvolt ultrafast electron diffraction (MeV ...

Using a full-dimensional Monte Carlo classical ensemble method, we present a theoretical study of atomic nonsequential double ionization (NSDI) with mid-infrared laser fields, and compare with results ...

We study ultrafast ionization dynamics using orthogonally polarized two-color (OTC) laser pulses involving the resonant “first plus second” (ω + 2ω) scheme. The scheme is illustrated by numerical ...

Scientists have conducted laboratory experiments at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) that provide new insights on the complex process of pressure-driven ionization in giant planets and ...

Scientists have discovered an indicator of when re-ionization of the primordial Universe began. The team used the Faint Object Camera and Spectrograph (FOCAS) mounted on the Subaru Telescope to ...

ass spectrometry (MS) has evolved into one of the most sensitive analytical methods for the structural characterization of molecules. 1,2 Ionization is critical for volatilizing sample analytes into a ...

A research team, led by Professor Tomonori Totani (School of Science, the University of Tokyo) and composed of scientists from the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan, the Tokyo Institute of ...

Essentia hires Credit Suisse to lead a sale of the company. The brand has roughly $100 million in annual sales and could attract interest from large consumer companies like Pepsi or Nestle. It is part ...

Six critical steps are involved in the manufacturing of semiconductors. These steps include deposition, photoresist, lithography, etch, ionization and packaging. This article discusses several ...
