This talk reviews recent theoretical and experimental results for elastic electron deuteron scattering (yielding the deuteron form factors), threshold electrodisintegration ($e+d\to e'+p+n$ where the mass of the final $np$ pair, $W$, is…
Since the mass of the electron is very small relative to atomic masses, Thomson scattering of low-energy photons ($h\nu \ll m_ec^2$) produces thermal Doppler frequency shifts that are much larger than atomic Doppler widths. A method is…
I calculate the rate of electromagnetic scattering in degenerate and partially degenerate plasmas composed of electrons, muons, protons, and neutrons. Correlations with strong interactions, induced by the polarizability of…
The acceleration and transport of energetic electrons during solar flares is one of the outstanding topics in solar physics. Recent X-ray and radio imaging and spectroscopy observations have provided diagnostics of the distribution of…
Adsorption of monovalent and multivalent cat- and anions on a deoxyribose nucleic acid (DNA) molecule from a salt solution is investigated by computer simulation. The ions are modelled as charged hard spheres, the DNA molecule as a point…
The absorption of ultraviolet light creates excitations in DNA, which subsequently start moving in the helix. Their fate is important for an understanding of photo damage, and is determined by the interplay of electronic couplings between…
The purpose of this work is to extend the Geant4-DNA Monte Carlo toolkit to include electron interactions with the four DNA bases using a set of cross sections recently implemented in Geant-DNA CPA100 models and available for liquid water.…
The charge and magnetic form factors of light nuclei, mainly for mass numbers A<=4, provide a sensitive test of our understanding of nuclei. A number of "exact" calculations of the wave functions starting from the nucleon-nucleon…
Single strand breaks are induced in DNA plasmids, pBR322 and pUC19, in aqueous media exposed to strong fields generated using ultrashort laser pulses (820 nm wavelength, 45 fs pulse duration, 1 kHz repetition rate) at intensities of 1-12 TW…
QED radiative corrections to elastic electron-proton scattering at low energies are discussed. Corrections to the electron line and effects due to vacuum polarization are computed. Higher order effects are estimated for the conditions of…
The deuteron ``D'' is the simplest nucleus with the spin S=1, therefore its electromagnetic structure is completely described by three different, the charge $G_C(t)$, magnetic $G_M(t)$ and quadrupole $G_Q(t)$ form factors, where $t=-q^2$ is…
I review the main features of the nuclear response extracted from electron scattering data. The emerging picture clearly shows that the shell model does not provide a fully quantitative description of nuclear dynamics. On the other hand,…
The interaction of swift, free-space electrons with confined optical near fields has recently sparked much interest. It enables a new type of photon-induced near-field electron microscopy, mapping local optical near fields around…
In electron scattering, the target form factors contribute significantly to the diffraction pattern and carry information on the target electromagnetic charge distribution. Here we show that the presence of electromagnetic radiation, as…
Within a quasipotential framework a relativistic analysis is presented of the deuteron current. Assuming that the singularities from the nucleon propagators are important, a so-called equal time approximation of the current is constructed.…
In many astrophysical objects an account for scattering of the X-ray fluorescent and resonance lines of iron ions by the electrons, bound in atomic and molecular hydrogen is important. Specific distortions of the scattered line profile…
Modeling charge transport in DNA is essential to understand and control the electrical properties and develop DNA-based nanoelectronics. DNA is a fluctuating molecule that exists in a solvent environment, which makes the electron…
The scientific community shows a great interest in the study of DNA damage induction, DNA damage repair and the biological effects on cells and cellular systems after exposure to ionizing radiation. Several in-silico methods have been…
Previous theoretical studies have shown that measuring the transverse current across DNA strands while they translocate through a nanopore or channel may provide a statistically distinguishable signature of the DNA bases, and may thus allow…
We report the results of a combined experimental and modeling study of the electrical breakdown of hydrogen and deuterium in static (DC) and radio-frequency (RF, 13.56 MHz) electric fields. For the simulations of the breakdown events,…
