  1. 21. Antiparticle identification studies for the PAMELA satellite experiment

    Author : Jens Lund; Mark Pearce; Tuneyoshi Kamae; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Space technology; PAMEL; satellites; astroparticle physics; antiparticles; calorimeters; Rymdteknik; Space engineering; Rymdteknik;

    Abstract : The PAMELA satellite experiment will soon be launched and during its 3 year mission perform measurement of charged particle fluxes in the cosmic radiation. PAMELA is specifically designed to identify antiprotons and positrons in the vast background of other charged particles. READ MORE

  2. 22. Chiral Recognition by Means of Mass Spectrometry

    Author : Oleksii Rebrov; Mats Larsson; Per Johnsson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chirality; Mass spectrometry; Chiral recognition; Gas phase; kemisk fysik; Chemical Physics;

    Abstract : This thesis is based on experimental studies of chiral ions in gas-phase. Electrospray ion source platform (Stockholm University) and commercially available Quadrupole Time-of-Flight mass spectrometer have been used in our studies. READ MORE

  3. 23. Formation and fragmentation dynamics of superexcited molecules

    Author : Ken Yoshiki Franzén; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A series of experimental studies on superexcited smallmolecules have been performed giving new information on theformation and fragmentation dynamics of small superexcitedmolecules. Highly monochromatized synchrotron radiation hasbeen applied in the 5-30 eV energy region, corresponding tovalence shell excitation, and in the 60-600 eV region,corresponding to core shell excitation, to reach these neutralstates above the ionization potential.

  4. 24. Method and technique development in peptide and protein mass Spectrometry

    Author : Kristina Håkansson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materials science; electrospray ionization; peptide sequencing; Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance; hydrogen deuterium exchange; protein structure; Materialvetenskap; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Molecular Biotechnology; Molekylär bioteknik;

    Abstract : Mechanistic studies and applicability of several methods and techniques for studying peptides and proteins with mass spectrometry are presented. A model for the protein molecular ion formation in explosive matrix-assisted plasma desorption mass spectrometry is proposed, involving a contribution from the chemical energy release during conversion of the explosive, an enhanced protonation through collisions with products from the explosive decay, and electron scavenging by other products.

  5. 25. A New Measurement of Low Energy Antiprotons In the Cosmic Radiation

    Author : Petter Hofverberg; Mark Pearce; Stephane Coutu; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cosmic radiation; antiprotons; solar modulation; Astroparticle physics; Astropartikelfysik;

    Abstract : New measurements of the antiproton flux and the antiproton-to-proton flux ratio at the top of the atmosphere between 80 MeV and 2.0 GeV are presented. The measurement was conducted from July 2006 to March 2008 with the PAMELA satellite experiment. READ MORE
