Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We present a combined theoretical and experimental study of ultrafast wave-packet dynamics in the dissociative ionization of H-2 molecules as a result of irradiation with an extreme-ultraviolet (XUV) pulse followed by an infrared (IR) pulse. In experiments where the duration of both the XUV and IR pulses are shorter than the vibrational period of H-2+, dephasing and rephasing of the vibrational wave packet that is formed in H-2+ upon ionization of the neutral molecule by the XUV pulse is observed. In experiments where the duration of the IR pulse exceeds the vibrational period of H-2+ (15 fs), a pronounced dependence of the H+ kinetic energy distribution on XUV-IR delay is observed that can be explained in terms of the adiabatic propagation of the H-2+ wave packet on field-dressed potential energy curves.

- The article analyses how cattle and poultry farmers in the Netherlands described their relationship with their farm animals and explores the factors that influence their level of attachment to them. The analysis draws upon Willkie’s (2005) framework of farmer-animal relationship, which distinguishes between different levels of attachment and detachment. This framework was useful for explaining why farmers developed different levels of attachment to animals, with the species, farm sector and housing system all playing roles in influencing this. Farmers tended to be more attached to cows than to chickens and felt more attachment towards breeding, as opposed to fattening, animals. Breeding, especially of cows, linked the animal to the personal histories of farmers, since their ancestors had often established the bloodlines of dairy cows. Farmers’ relationships with their animals were also influenced by the organization of production at the farm: the number of animals, their length of stay on the farm and the housing system. These factors all influenced the visibility of the animal as an individual and as a ‘real’ animal and not a living tool of production. The species and function of an animal and the organization of production largely defined the frequency, intensity and intimacy of farmers’ contact with individual animals. Practically all farmers (across sectors) perceived taking good care of animals and avoidance of suffering as a core element of their job and caring about animals as central to their definition of a ‘good farmer’. Beyond this, different groups of farmers showed clear differences in their level of attachment to their animals. In general dairy farmers felt more strongly attached to their dairy cows than farmers to their beef cattle or veal, whereas most poultry farmers felt rather detached from their chicken, and tended to perceive them as part of a flock and ‘living production tools’. These animals were not only de-individualized; at times and when seen solely as part of a meat and egg production system they were almost de-animalized.

Short XUV pulses to characterize field-free molecular alignment

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We present experiments on field-free molecular alignment of N-2 and CO2 probed with short XUV pulses that are obtained via high-harmonic generation. The XUV pulses induce a dissociative ionization or a Coulomb explosion of the molecule, where the fragment ion recoil (measured using the velocity map imaging technique) provides information on the alignment of the parent molecule at the time of ionization. We discuss how photoelectron detection may in future allow the determination of molecular-frame photoelectron angular distributions and molecular structure.

- We study experimentally the ionization of argon atoms by a train of attosecond pulses in the presence of a strong infrared laser field, using a velocity map imaging technique. The recorded momentum distribution strongly depends on the delay between the attosecond pulses and the laser field. We interpret the interference patterns observed for different delays using numerical and analytical calculations within the strong field approximation.

- OBJECTIVES: To analyse the association between the genetic polymorphisms within the HTR2A gene for the serotonin receptor and rheumatoid arthritis (RA).METHODS: HTR2A gene polymorphisms were analysed in patients with RA and controls from two study populations using PCR based restriction endonuclease mapping or TaqMan allelic discrimination with more than 4000 individuals included in the current study.RESULTS: At the discovery stage we detected significant differences in frequency of rs6313 (T102C polymorphism) between the patients with RA and controls (p = 0.006). Following validation with an extended set of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and number of DNA samples, a trend in associations in allelic model for SNPs rs6314, rs1328674, rs6313 and rs6311 (p = 0.006, 0.002, 0.006, 0.009) was seen, although it was lost after correction for multi-comparison for all but rs1328674 (empirical p value = 0.021). However, haplotype frequency analysis based on these four SNPs showed significantly low representation of TCTT combination in patients with RA in comparison with controls (3.6% and 5.6%, p<0.001 on chi(2) test, empirical p = 0.004 after 100 000 permutations) and a significantly higher frequency of CTCC combination in patients with RA in comparison with controls (3.6% and 2.2%, p = 0.002 on chi(2) test, empirical p = 0.022 after 100 000 permutations).CONCLUSIONS: In our study, genetic polymorphisms at the HTR2A gene are associated with susceptibility for RA, suggesting possible links between the serotonergic system and development of the disease.

- A complete quantum-mechanical description of matter and its interaction with the environment requires detailed knowledge of a number of complex parameters. In particular, information about the phase of wavefunctions is important for predicting the behaviour of atoms, molecules or larger systems. In optics, information about the evolution of the phase of light in time(1) and space(2) is obtained by interferometry. To obtain similar information for atoms and molecules, it is vital to develop analogous techniques. Here we present an interferometric method for determining the phase variation of electronic wave packets in momentum space, and demonstrate its applicability to the fundamental process of single-photon ionization. We use a sequence of extreme-ultraviolet attosecond pulses(3,4) to ionize argon atoms and an infrared laser field, which induces a momentum shear(5) between consecutive electron wave packets. The interferograms that result from the interaction of these wave packets provide useful information about their phase. This technique opens a promising new avenue for reconstructing the wavefunctions(6,7) of atoms and molecules and for following the ultrafast dynamics of electronic wave packets.
