  • Polarization spectroscopy and photodissociation studies of nitroaromatic compounds in the gas phase

    Creator:
    Abbott, James E.
    Abstract:
    The central purpose of this dissertation was to explore and expand the use of an uniform electric field for orientation and for subsequent spectroscopic investigation of asymmetric polar molecules in the gas phase. The systems of study were nitrobenzene (NB) and the nitrotoluene (NT) isomers. We were able to quantitatively...

  • Mass spectrometry-based identification and characterization of protein and peptide adducts of lipoxidation-derived aldehydes

    Creator:
    Chavez, Juan D.
    Abstract:
    Oxidative stress is recognized as an important underlying factor in the pathogenesis of many degenerative diseases as well as normal senescence. The free radicals, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and electrophiles produced during oxidative stress are capable of modifying nucleic acids, lipids and proteins. There are a variety of oxidative modifications...

  • Improvements in synthesis and response techniques of ion-selective sensors

    Creator:
    Pylypiuk, Nataliia
    Abstract:
    Two improvements to the established procedures for synthesis and response detection of ion-selective optical sensors (optodes) were introduced. The first improvement addresses the drawback of organic dye (optode-localized chromoionophore) photobleaching. This positively impacts fluorescence response and allows for (1) direct measurement of hydrogen ion activity upon binding with the dye,...

  • Electron diffraction of molecules in superfluid helium droplets

    Creator:
    He, Yunteng
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation, I describe the experimental investigation in electron diffraction of molecules in superfluid helium droplets. The project is part of an overall scheme called ‘single molecule serial electron diffraction imaging’ (SS-EDI), with the ultimate goal of building an apparatus to determine atomic structures from oriented macromolecules. In SS-EDI,...

  • Electron Diffraction of Neutral and Cationic Clusters Doped into Superfluid Helium Droplets

    Creator:
    Lei, Lei
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation, I describe the experimental investigation of electron diffraction of neutral and ionic clusters doped into superfluid helium droplets. The project is aimed at contributing to the development of an overall approach called ‘serial single molecule electron diffraction imaging (ss-EDI), a potential approach to solve macromolecule structures bypassing...

  • Total Kinetic Energy Release in the Fast Neutron Induced Fission of 237Np

    Creator:
    Pica, Ashley
    Abstract:
    The total kinetic energy (TKE) in the fast neutron induced fission of 237Np was measured for neutron energies from En = 2.6 – 45.7 MeV at the LANSCE- WNR facility. The postTKE release decreases non-linearly with increasing incident neutron energy and can be represented as TKE(MeV) = (169.365 ± 1.551)...

  • CoLocalized Excitation Emission Resolution : A CLEER approach for multicolor fluorescence analysis

    Creator:
    Almlie, C. Kyle
    Abstract:
    Fluorescence has proven to be a robust and powerful method of analysis in numerous fields: forensics, pharmaceutics, geology, food science, and environmental sciences have all developed a large collection of fluorescence instruments and methods to overcome application-specific challenges. Biological applications saw the same development of a fluorescence toolkit with methods...

  • Tracking Photoinduced Primary Events with Femtosecond Stimulated Raman Spectroscopy and Calculations

    Creator:
    Wang, Yanli
    Abstract:
    Femtosecond stimulated Raman spectroscopy (FSRS) is a powerful ultrafast technique which can track photoinduced excited state structural events on femtosecond (fs) to picosecond (ps) timescales. In addition to high temporal and spectral resolutions, FSRS provides a broad spectral window from ca. 100—2000 cm-1 for detection, enabling the direct mapping of...
