Charge transfer in dissociating iodomethane and fluoromethane molecules ionized by intense femtosecond X-ray pulses. Structural Dynamics, 3(4). doi:10.1063/1.4944344Additional Authors: Marchenko, T.;Miron, C.;Patanen, M.;Osipov, T.;Schorb, S.;Simon, M.;Swiggers, M.;Techert, S.;Ueda, K.;Bostedt, C.;Rolles, D.;Rudenko, A.Ultrafast electron transfer in dissociating iodomethane and fluoromethane molecules was studied at the Linac Coherent Light Source free-electron laser using an ultraviolet-pump, X-ray-probe scheme. The results for both molecules are discussed with respect to the nature of their UV excitation and different chemical properties. Signatures of long-distance intramolecular charge transfer are observed for both species, and a quantitative analysis of its distance dependence in iodomethane is carried out for charge states up to I21+. The reconstructed critical distances for electron transfer are in good agreement with a classical over-the-barrier model and with an earlier experiment employing a near-infrared pump pulse. © 2016 Author(s)
Creativity M. Rudenko in Philosophical Discourse Twentieth Century
У статті проаналізовано науково-фантастичні та художні романи М. Руденка і доведено, що твори належать до жанру філософського роману. Аналіз основних філософських ідей М. Руденка показує, що митець у своїх творах понад усе ставить Людину. Основна тема художніх творів автора – пошук сенсу людського існування. У науково-фантастичних романах автора реалізація філософських ідей проходить як апологія авторської філософської теорії. Окремим питанням розглянуто філософську працю М. Руденка «Гносис і сучасність», де автор подає на розсуд читачеві власну філософську теорію світобудови.In the article explores the science-fiction novels and artwork N. Rudenko and proved that the works belong to the genre of the philosophical novel. Analysis of the main philosophical ideas of Rudenko shows the artist in his work above all became a man . The main theme of fiction author - search for the meaning of human existence. In science fiction novels by the realization of philosophical ideas is how the author's apology philosophical theory. Another issue deals with the philosophical work of M. Rudenko «Gnosis and Modernity», where the author takes the reader to the discretion of his own philosophical theory of the universe
Imaging single cells in a beam of live cyanobacteria with an X-ray laser
Citation: van der Schot, G., Svenda, M., Maia, F., Hantke, M., DePonte, D. P., Seibert, M. M., . . . Ekeberg, T. (2015). Imaging single cells in a beam of live cyanobacteria with an X-ray laser. Nature Communications, 6, 9. doi:10.1038/ncomms6704There exists a conspicuous gap of knowledge about the organization of life at mesoscopic levels. Ultra-fast coherent diffractive imaging with X-ray free-electron lasers can probe structures at the relevant length scales and may reach sub-nanometer resolution on micron-sized living cells. Here we show that we can introduce a beam of aerosolised cyanobacteria into the focus of the Linac Coherent Light Source and record diffraction patterns from individual living cells at very low noise levels and at high hit ratios. We obtain two-dimensional projection images directly from the diffraction patterns, and present the results as synthetic X-ray Nomarski images calculated from the complex-valued reconstructions. We further demonstrate that it is possible to record diffraction data to nanometer resolution on live cells with X-ray lasers. Extension to sub-nanometer resolution is within reach, although improvements in pulse parameters and X-ray area detectors will be necessary to unlock this potential.Additional Authors: Almeida, N.

Three-Dimensional Reconstruction of the Giant Mimivirus Particle with an X-Ray Free-Electron Laser

Three-Dimensional Reconstruction of the Giant Mimivirus Particle with an X-Ray Free-Electron Laser. Physical Review Letters, 114(9), 6. doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.114.098102We present a proof-of-concept three-dimensional reconstruction of the giant mimivirus particle from experimentally measured diffraction patterns from an x-ray free-electron laser. Three-dimensional imaging requires the assembly of many two-dimensional patterns into an internally consistent Fourier volume. Since each particle is randomly oriented when exposed to the x-ray pulse, relative orientations have to be retrieved from the diffraction data alone. We achieve this with a modified version of the expand, maximize and compress algorithm and validate our result using new methods.Additional Authors: Andersson, I.;Loh, N. D.;Martin, A.

Time-resolved studies with FELs
Intense femtosecond VUV, XUV, and X-ray pulses from free-electron lasers (FELs) enable time-resolved experiments studying ultrafast dynamics in a large variety of systems relevant, e.g., to physics, chemistry, biology, and material sciences. In this paper, we focus on time-resolved studies of gas-phase molecules, which lie at the crossroad between atomic, molecular and optical physics and ultrafast photochemistry. We describe the current status of the field and discuss typical experimental configurations used for pump-probe experiments with FELs. We illustrate them with three recent examples for such experiments performed at the FLASH and LCLS FELs studying charge transfer following XUV and X-ray photoabsorption as well as photoelectron diffraction from aligned molecules. We conclude with a short outlook on future developments and perspectives for femtosecond pump-probe experiments with FELs
Monadology of Mykola Rudenko: Uniqueness and Originality of Scientific Platform
У розвідці доведено унікальність теорії монад М. Руденка, який першим у світовій науці вивів фізичні характеристики Монади: вирахував радіус, масу, густину, енергію та довів, що Монада може ущільнюватися та створювати гравітаційне поле. Теорія Монад українського філософа пропонує як альтернативну стаціонарну (на відміну від відомої нам ізотропної) модель Всесвіту, у якій все ґрунтується на принципі загального порядку без жодних випадковостей.Monadology is not a new science. The beginning to it was given by ancient gnostics. G. Leibniz was its founder. The developers of science of Monads are considered to be M. Bugayev, P. Florensky and others, but only M. Rudenko managed to impose geocentric standards of modern physics on concepts that for a long time were attributed to metaphysics. M. Rudenko, the first in the world of science, gave physical characteristics of the Monad: he calculated the radius, mass, density, energy and proved that the Monad can thicken and create a gravitational field.
M. Rudenko offers a stationary (unlike known isotropic) model of the Universe, in which everything is based on the principle of general order without any eventualities. Thickening and rarefaction of vacuum is the beginning of the Spheres, the birth of the Monad. Monad is pushing the Universe to win space for itself. Monad, or Nine: six forces that create the Sphere, and three additional ones – Free Light, Light Creator. The Light is spilled inside the Monads. The Monad should be seen as the Spirit Matter. There are no other realities in the world except the Monads. The thinker proves that life on the Earth does not originate from the Sun but from the World Monad. M. Rudenko did not completely remove the veil of mystery, but pointed out the alternative direction of scientific research, pointed to the lack of knowledge, that today is an obstacle to finding out the phenomenon of the Universe

Communication: X-ray coherent diffractive imaging by immersion in nanodroplets
Citation: Tanyag, R. M. P., Bernando, C., Jones, C. F., Bacellar, C., Ferguson, K. R., Anielski, D., . . . Vilesov, A. F. (2015). Communication: X-ray coherent diffractive imaging by immersion in nanodroplets. Structural Dynamics, 2(5), 9. doi:10.1063/1.4933297Lensless x-ray microscopy requires the recovery of the phase of the radiation scattered from a specimen. Here, we demonstrate a de novo phase retrieval technique by encapsulating an object in a superfluid helium nanodroplet, which provides both a physical support and an approximate scattering phase for the iterative image reconstruction. The technique is robust, fast-converging, and yields the complex density of the immersed object. Images of xenon clusters embedded in superfluid helium droplets reveal transient configurations of quantum vortices in this fragile system. (C) 2015 Author(s).

Monadology of Mykola Rudenko: uniqueness and originality of scientific platform
У статті зроблено критичний аналіз наукової праці М. Руденка “Гносис і сучасність”, де автор, взявши за об’єкт аналізу гравітаційні потенціали й радіуси, виклав власну теорію будови Всесвіту. Глибокі наукові дослідження письменника-філософа є синтезом фізики і метафізики, підтверджені математичними розрахунками. М. Руденко пропонує ввести до наукового обігу четверту світову константу – Силу Моносу, яка, на думку дослідника, лежить в основі світобудови. Письменник доводить первинність матерії – основи для розвитку природи і вказує на вторинність речовинних об’єктів, сповнених прагнення до життя.Monadology is not a new science.
