Measurement of the inclusive and differential t(t)over-bar gamma cross sections in the dilepton channel and effective field theory interpretation in proton-proton collisions at root s=13 TeV

Matthias Finger, Varun Sharma, Olivier Martin, Ian Smith, Jean-François Carlin, Arvind Shah, Rakesh Chawla, Thomas Mountford, Chao Wang, João Miguel das Neves Duarte

The production cross section of a top quark pair in association with a photon is measured in proton-proton collisions in the decay channel with two oppositely charged leptons (e(+/-)mu(-/+), e(+)e(-), or mu(+)mu(-)). The measurement is performed using 138 ...

Deciphering the Mechanisms of Bacterial Inactivation on HiPIMS Sputtered CuxO-FeOx-PET Surfaces: From Light Absorption to Catalytic Bacterial Death

Sami Rtimi, Adrien Alexis Paul Chauvet

The production of nontoxic, affordable, and efficient antibacterial surfaces is key to the well-being of our societies. In this aim, antibacterial thin films have been prepared using earth-abundant metals deposited using high-power impulse magnetron sputte ...

Ultrafast dynamics of the photo-excited hemes b and c(n) in the cytochrome b(6)f complex

Adrien Alexis Paul Chauvet, Rachna Agarwal

The dynamics of hemes b and c(n) within the cytochrome b(6)f complex are investigated by means of ultrafast broad-band transient absorption spectroscopy. On the one hand, the data reveal that, subsequent to visible light excitation, part of the b hemes und ...

Photo-induced oxidation of the uniquely liganded heme f in the cytochrome b(6)f complex of oxygenic photosynthesis

Frank van Mourik, Andre Al Haddad, Adrien Alexis Paul Chauvet, Rachna Agarwal

The ultrafast behavior of the ferrous heme f from the cytochrome b(6)f complex of oxygenic photosynthesis is revealed by means of transient absorption spectroscopy. Benefiting from the use of microfluidic technologies for handling the sample as well as fro ...

Set-up for broadband Fourier-transform multidimensional electronic spectroscopy

Majed Chergui, Frank van Mourik, Christopher Alexander Arrell, Andre Al Haddad, José Javier Pancracio Ojeda Andara, Gerald Auböck, Adrien Alexis Paul Chauvet

We present a compact passively phase-stabilized ultra-broadband 2D Fourier transform setup. A gas (argon)-filled hollow core fiber pumped by an amplified Ti:Al2O3 laser is used as a light source providing spectral range spanning from 420 to 900 nm. Sub-10- ...

Note: Small anaerobic chamber for optical spectroscopy

Majed Chergui, Adrien Alexis Paul Chauvet, Rachna Agarwal

The study of oxygen-sensitive biological samples requires an effective control of the atmosphere in which they are housed. In this aim however, no commercial anaerobic chamber is adequate to solely enclose the sample and small enough to fit in a compact sp ...

Photo-induced dynamics of the heme centers in cytochrome bc(1)

Majed Chergui, Frank van Mourik, Andre Al Haddad, Adrien Alexis Paul Chauvet

The ultrafast response of cytochrome bc1 is investigated for the first time, via transient absorption spectroscopy. The distinct redox potentials of both c(1)- and b-hemes allow for a clear differentiation of their respective signals. We find that while th ...

A microfluidic flow-cell for the study of the ultrafast dynamics of biological systems

Majed Chergui, Adrien Alexis Paul Chauvet

The study of biochemical dynamics by ultrafast spectroscopic methods is often restricted by the limited amount of liquid sample available, while the high repetition rate of light sources can induce photodamage. In order to overcome these limitations, we de ...
