Efficiency of dopant-induced ignition of helium nanoplasmas

Helium nanodroplets irradiated by intense near-infrared laser pulses ignite and form highly ionized nanoplasmas even at laser intensities where helium is not directly ionized by the optical field, provided the droplets contain a few dopant atoms.We present a tinsupe combined theoretical and experimental study of the He nanoplasma ignition dynamics

The Diversity of Serum Anti-DSG3 IgG Subclasses Has a Major Impact on Pemphigus Activity and Is Predictive of Relapses After Treatment With Rituximab

IntroductionWe studied the distribution and in vitro pathogenicity of anti-DSG3 IgG subclasses during the course of pemphigus vulgaris (PV).MethodsWe longitudinally studied the distribution of anti-DSG3 IgG subclasses (before versus after treatment) in sera from PV patients, using an addressable-laser bead immunoassay (ALBIA).The in vitro pathogeni
