Metallized DNA
Synthesis, Analysis and Properties
Metallic nanoparticles have been studied intensively during the last decades because of their intriguing optical properties: Due to collective oscillations of the conducting electrons - the so called plasmonic oscillations - they absorb light in the visible spectrum. The reson...

Head First Physics
A learner's companion to mechanics and practical physics (AP Physics B - Advanced Placement)
by Heather Lang
Wouldn't it be great if there were a physics book that showed you how things work instead of telling you how? Finally, with _Head First Physics_, there is. This comprehensive book takes the stress out of learning mechanics and practical physics by providing a fun and engaging ...

observations and MHD simulations
The fine structure of the magnetic field in the solar photosphere is the result of the complex interactions between the magnetic field and convection. Although the spatial resolution of the instruments used in the study of the photospheric magnetic field has improved significa...
