Ignition characteristics of AP-based composite solid propellants that contained either HMX or RDX, were investigated using a CO2 laser at relatively low heat flux and subatmospheric pressures, in order to simulate space environments and also simplify our understanding of the nature of ignition pheno

Time-dependent processes of solid propellant deflagration are modeled and a numerical simulation of ignition and extinction is undertaken. Since the analytic theory of ignition is well developed we rely on it to verify the ability of the numerical algorithm to track stiff, time-dependent features of
A freqency doubled dye laser has been used to excite fluorescence from OH-radicals in an ignition kernel in an atmospheric methane/air mixture. The fluorescence was imaged onto a gated and intensified diode array camera. Radial profiles with a spatial resolution of 0.05 mm were obtained from 10 #s t
## Abstract This contribution reviews recent applications of micromanipulation, by UV photons, in DNA repair and ageing research as well as in the evaluation of the phototoxicity of drugs. In some cases, micromanipulation is combined with the comet assay, a technique, which allows a direct view on
## Abstract In this study, cationic nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared by coating chitosan (CS) on the surface of PLGA NPs. To our knowledge most of the work in the field of drug delivery systems using lasers has been performed using short pulses with micron and submicron durations. We carried out a
