We have studied the effect of amino acids on electron attachment properties of DNA nucleobases, taking cytosine as a model system. The equation of motion coupled cluster theory with an extended basis set has been used to simulate the…

We have analyzed the low-energy electron attachment to wobble base pairs using the equation motion coupled cluster method and extended basis sets. A doorway mechanism exists for the attachment of the additional electron to the base pairs,…

We have studied the effect of zwitterionic form of the amino acid on the electron attachment to DNA using thymine glycine as a model system. The electron attachment to thymine in the presence of glycine takes place through a "doorway…

A mechanism of double strand breaking (DSB) in DNA due to the action of two electrons is considered. These are the electrons produced in the vicinity of DNA molecules due to ionization of water molecules with a consecutive emission of two…

The interaction between metal atoms and nucleobases has been a topic of high interest due to the wide scientific and technological implications. Combining density functional theory simulations with a literature overview, we achieved an…

A solid-state nanopore can electrophoretically capture a DNA molecule and pull it through in a folded configuration. The resulting ionic current signal indicates where along its length the DNA was captured. A statistical study using an 8 nm…

We have investigated the electron attachment dynamics of uracil in water using accurate wave-function and QM/MM methods. The initial electron attached state is found to be localized on the water and mixing of electronic and nuclear degrees…

Based on our formulation of the DNA electrophoresis near a pore [P. Rowghanian and A. Y. Grosberg, Phys. Rev. E 87, 042723 (2013)], we address the electrophoretic DNA capture into a nanopore as a steady-state process of particle absorption…

We present an EOM-CCSD based QM/MM study on the electron attachment process to cytosine, solvated in water. The microhydration studies cannot capture the effect of bulk water environment on the electron attachment process and one need to…

Dissociative electron attachment, that is, the cleavage of chemical bonds induced by low-energy electrons, is difficult to model with standard quantum-chemical methods because the involved anions are not bound but subject to autodetachment.…

We study theoretically, two doped Carbon nanotubes connected via a chemically active bond as the basic elementary gate for a recent proposal for qubit teleportation in the solid--state. We show that such a system provides the necessary…

Using the velocity map imaging technique, we studied and characterized the process of Dissociative Electron Attachment (DEA) in polyatomic molecules like Water, Hydrogen Sulphide, Ammonia, Methane, Formic Acid and Propyl Amine. We present…

Associative electronic detachment (AED) between anions and neutral atoms leads to the detachment of the anion's electron resulting in the formation of a neutral molecule. It plays a key role in chemical reaction networks, like the…

Dissociative electron attachment (DEA) to the HNC$_3$ is modeled theoretically using a first-principles approach. In HNC$_3$+$e^-$ collisions, there is a low-energy resonance, which has a repulsive character along the H+NC$_3$ coordinate…

We present a simple description on the electrophoretic dynamics of polyelectrolytes going through designed channels with narrow constrictions of slit geometry. By analyzing rheological behaviours of the stuck chain, which is coupled to the…

Electron transmission through nanosystems is blocked if there are no states connecting the left and the right reservoir. Electron-electron scattering can lift this blockade and we show that this feature can be conveniently implemented by…

The transfer of charges, including electrons and holes, is a key step in heterogeneous catalysis, taking part in the reduction and oxidation of adsorbate species on catalyst surfaces. In plasmonic catalysis, electrons can transfer from…

Positions of protons in DNA hydrogen bonds are fundamental for the fidelity of the replication process. Because the hydrogen bond is partially covalent the electronic structure of DNA plays an important role in the replication process.…

DNA adsorption and naturation is modeled via two interacting flexible homopolymers coupled to a solid surface. DNA denatures if the entropy gain for unbinding the two strands overcomes the loss of binding energy. When adsorbed to a surface,…

The strong mixing of many-electron basis states in excited atoms and ions with open $f$ shells results in very large numbers of complex, chaotic eigenstates that cannot be computed to any degree of accuracy. Describing the processes which…
