Detection and identification of body fluids are crucial aspects of forensic investigations, aiding in crime scene reconstructions and providing important leads. Although many methods have been developed for these purposes, no method is currently in use in the forensic field that allows rapid, non-contact …

Non-invasive, rapid, on-site detection and identification of body fluids is highly desired in forensic investigations. The use of fluorescence-based methods for body fluid identification, have so far remain relatively unexplored. As such, the fluorescent properties of semen, serum, urine, saliva and …

With sufficient electrical energy CO2 from the atmosphere, combined with water, can be converted to hydrocarbons. The first step in converting CO2 into a carbon based fuel is the dissociation of CO2 into CO and O. DIFFER explores the possibilities of this process by using a microwave plasma. This project …

We have investigated the photoionization and photodissociation of free coronene cations C24H12+ upon soft X-ray photoabsorption in the carbon K-edge region by means of a time-of-flight mass spectrometry approach. Core excitation into an unoccupied molecular orbital (below threshold) and core ionization …

The purpose of this report is to assess the relevance of the measurement of the spectrally resolved distribution of radiation in tokamak boundary plasmas. This assessment is important and urgent in view of the recent ambition to design and construct a multi-camera configuration for hyper imaging spectroscopy1 …
