This paper describes keV ion interactions with bio-molecules and organisms by illustrating
the general concepts and discussing emerging applications. We begin with a systematic …

The surface science-based approach to synthesising new organic materials on surfaces has
gained considerable attention in recent years, owing to its success in facilitating the …

A large number of studies are devoted to the investigation of the biomolecular ionization and
fragmentation dynamics underlying biological radiation damage. Most of these studies have …

The interactions of electrons with molecular systems under various conditions are essential
to interdisciplinary research fields extending over the fundamental and applied sciences. In …

We have studied multiple ionization and dissociation of a trapped protonated peptide
(leucine enkephalin) as induced by keV singly and doubly charged ions (H+, He+, 2+) to …

The dissociative double photoionization of isoxazole molecules has been investigated
experimentally and theoretically. The experiment has been carried out in the 27.5–36 eV …

Fast highly charged C and O ion-induced total ionization of an RNA base molecule, uracil (C
4 H 4 N 2 O 2, m= 112 amu), has been investigated in a wide energy range of keV to MeV. A …

In general, radiation‐induced fragmentation of small amino acids is governed by the
cleavage of the C Cα bond. We present results obtained with 300 keV Xe20+ ions that …

The ionization and fragmentation of trapped protonated dGCAT oligonucleotides upon
interaction with energetic photons (h ν= 10–570 eV) and keV C q+ ions was investigated by …

Fragmentation of the γ‐aminobutyric acid molecule (GABA, NH2 (CH2) 3COOH) following
collisions with slow O6+ ions (v≈ 0.3 au) was studied in the gas phase by a combined …
