The Oxidation–Deuteration Processes of Large, Astronomically Relevant Cationic Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
In interstellar environments, gas-phase polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) predominantly involves (photo)fragmentation, hydrogenation, and oxidation chemical routes, which lead to the formation of complex organic species.

Observational clues to the physics at the magnetosphere in young stellar objects

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2014
Classical T Tauri stars offer an excellent laboratory to study the accretion process and star-disk interaction, which define the transfer of mass and angular momentum in the system. The interaction takes place very close to the star, in a region of about

Enzymatic degradation of biopolymers in amorphous and molten states: mechanisms and applications

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This review explains how polymer morphology and thermal state shape enzymatic degradation pathways, comparing amorphous and molten biopolymer structures. By integrating structure–reactivity principles with insights from thermodynamics and enzyme engineering, it highlights mechanisms that enable efficient polymer breakdown.

The Diffuse Supernova Neutrino Background is detectable in Super-Kamiokande

open access: yes, 2009
The Diffuse Supernova Neutrino Background (DSNB) provides an immediate opportunity to study the emission of MeV thermal neutrinos from core-collapse supernovae. The DSNB is a powerful probe of stellar and neutrino physics, provided that the core-collapse

Polarization‐resolved femtosecond Vis/IR spectroscopy tailored for resolving weak signals in biological samples using minimal sample volume

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Unique biological samples, such as site‐specific mutant proteins, are available only in limited quantities. Here, we present a polarization‐resolved transient infrared spectroscopy setup with referencing to improve signal‐to‐noise tailored towards tracing small signals. We provide an overview of characterizing the excitation conditions for polarization‐
