Inhibition of cellular proliferation and enhancement of hydrogen peroxide production in fibrosarcoma cell line by weak radio frequency magnetic fields

September 23, 2014
Author(s)
Pablo Castello, Iain Hill, Lucas Portelli, Frank Barnes, Robert J. Usselman, Carlos Martino
This study presents experimental data for the effects of weak radio frequency (RF) magnetic fields on hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production and cellular growth rates of fibrosarcoma HT1080 cells in vitro. Cells were exposed either to 45mT static magnetic

Bromination of marine particulate organic matter through oxidative mechanisms

September 14, 2014
Author(s)
Bruce D. Ravel, Alessandra C. Leri, Kathleen Thornton, Lawrence M. Mayer
Although bromine is considered conservative in seawater, it exhibits a well established correlation with organic carbon in marine sediments. This carbon-bromine association was recently attributed to covalent bonding, with organobromine in sinking

Joseph T. Hodges, Jonathan Tennyson, P F. Bernath, Alain Campargue, A Csaszar, L Daumont, R R. Gamache, D Lisak, Olga Naumenko, Lawrence Rothman, Ha Tran, N Zobov, Boone Chris, L Gianfrani, Jean M. Hartmann
Recommendations of an IUPAC Task Group formed in 2011 on “Intensities and line shapes in high-resolution spectra of water isotopologues from Experiment and Theory" (Project No. 2011-022-2- 100) on line profiles of high-resolution rotational-vibrational

Absolute pulse energy measurements of soft x-rays at the Linac Coherent Light Source

Uwe Arp, Alexander Sorokin, Ulf Jastrow, Pavle Jurani?, Svea Kreis, Mathias Richter, Yiping Feng, Dennis Nordlund, Kai Tiedtke, Philip Heimann, Bob Nagler, Hae Ja Lee, Stephanie Mack, Marco Cammarata, Oleg Krupin, Marc Messerschmidt, Michael Holmes , Michael Rowen, William Schlotter, Stefan Moeller, Joshua Turner
This paper reports novel measurements of x-ray optical radiation on an absolute scale from a recently developed source of radiation generated in the soft x-ray regime of a free electron laser. We give a brief description of the physics behind the

Vibronic Coupling in Asymmetric Bichromophores: Experimental Investigation of Diphenylmethane-d5

August 14, 2014

Nathan Pillsbury, Nathanael M. Kidwell, Benjamin Nebgen, Lyudmila V. Slipchenko, Kevin O. Douglass, John R. Cable, David F. Plusquellic
Vibrationally and rotationally resolved electronic spectra of diphenylmethane-d5 (DPM-d5) are reported in the isolated-molecule environment of a supersonic expansion. While small, the asymmetry induced by deuteration of one of the aromatic rings is

High-Speed Coherent Raman Fingerprint Imaging of Biological Tissues

Charles H. Camp, Young J. Lee, John M. Heddleston, Christopher M. Hartshorn, Angela R. Hight Walker, Jeremy N. Rich, Justin D. Lathia, Marcus T. Cicerone
We have developed a coherent Raman imaging platform using broadband coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (BCARS) that provides an unprecedented combination of speed, sensitivity, and spectral breadth. The system utilizes a unique configuration of laser

Millimeter Wave Detection via Autler-Townes Splitting in Rubidium Rydberg Atoms

July 17, 2014

Joshua A. Gordon, Christopher L. Holloway, Andrew Schwarzkopf, Dave Anderson, Stephanie Miller, Nithiwadee Thaicharoen, Georg Raithel
In this paper we demonstrate the detection of millimeter waves via Autler-Townes splitting in 85Rb Rydberg atoms. This method may provide an independent atomic-based SI-traceable method for measuring mm-wave electric fi elds, which addresses a gap in

Tests of Theory in Rydberg States of One-electron Ions

July 1, 2014
Author(s)
Joseph N. Tan, Peter J. Mohr
Comparison of optical frequency measurements to predictions of quantum electrodynamics (QED) for Rydberg states of one-electron ions can test theory and allow new determinations of constants of nature to be made. Simplifications in the QED theory of high

Mid-Infrared Time-Resolved Frequency Comb Spectroscopy of Transient Free Radicals

June 10, 2014
Author(s)
Adam J. Fleisher, Bryce Bjork, Thinh Q. Bui, Kevin C. Cossel, Mitchio Okumura, Jun Ye
Quantitative measurements in chemical kinetics require unambiguous determinations of reactant, intermediate, and product concentrations on time scales faster than the reaction rate. Direct absorption spectroscopy in the mid-infrared (mid-IR) can fulfill

Multiheterodyne spectroscopy with optical frequency combs generated from a continuous-wave laser

May 1, 2014
Author(s)
David A. Long, Adam J. Fleisher, Kevin O. Douglass, Stephen E. Maxwell, Katarzyna E. Bielska, Joseph T. Hodges, David F. Plusquellic
Dual-drive Mach-Zehnder modulators were utilized to produce power-leveled optical frequency combs (OFCs) from a continuous-wave laser. The resulting OFCs contained up to fifty unique frequency components and spanned more than 200 GHz. Simple changes to the

This compilation revises and extends the previously recommended list of energy levels of quadruply ionized iron (Fe V) and provides a comprehensive list of observed spectral lines and transition probabilities in this spectrum. The new level optimization

Measurement of the Kr XVIII 3d 2D5/2 lifetime in a Unitary Penning Trap

The lifetime of the 3d 2D5/2 in the fine-structure doublet of the Kr XVIII ground configuration is measured using a compact Penning trap with 2.2 cm3 of trapping volume. Kr17+ ions produced in an electron beam ion trap (EBIT) are extracted and captured in

Time-resolved surface infrared spectroscopy during atomic layer deposition of TiO2 using tetrakis(dimethylamido)titanium and water

Guanine quadruplexes (GQ) are four-stranded DNA structures formed by guanine-rich DNA sequences. Formation of GQs inhibits cancer cell survival, but detecting GQs in vivo has proved difficult, in part because of GQ structural diversity. Development of GQ
