EPJ D Topical Issue: Quantum Aspects of Attoscience
- Details
- Published on 25 June 2020
Submissions are invited for a Topical Issue of EPJD on the Quantum Aspects of Attoscience.
Attoscience has emerged from the interaction of matter with intense laser fields and deals with some of the shortest timescales in nature. Its ultimate goal, to control electron dynamics in real time, has made the area hugely popular, with applications ranging from biomolecules to human-made devices. This rapid growth has led to a vast, fragmented methodological landscape, with many conflicting views. Furthermore, whilst classical methods have enjoyed great success, quantum aspects remain largely unexplored, especially in extended, highly correlated systems.
EPJ D Topical Issue: Atoms and Molecules in a Confined Environment

Submissions are invited for a Topical Issue of EPJD on Atoms and Molecules in a Confined Environment.
Spatial confinement, originally developed in the 1930s in the context of problems in solid state theory, astronomy and high-pressure physics and chemistry has experienced a renewal of interest in the 21st century. Two volumes of Advances in Quantum Chemistry in 2009, a 2014 monograph edited by K.D. Sen and a review by Eugenio Ley-Koo in 2018 have summarized the growth of the field and facilitated access to the recent literature. The field of confined quantum systems continues to expand at a rate that merits publication of a topical issue of EPJ D: Atomic, Molecular, and Optical Physics.
EPJ D Topical Issue: Low Temperature Plasmas: Processes, Diagnostics and Applications
- Details
- Published on 12 May 2020
Submissions are invited for a Topical Issue of EPJD on Low Temperature Plasmas: Processes, Diagnostics and Applications. The aim of this Topical issue is to present new results in the field of low temperature plasmas with a view towards new applications, and development of advanced technologies.
Simulation and theory, combined with development of plasma diagnostics and systems, all lead to improved understanding of plasmas; understanding that enables control and application, and results in the development of new methodologies and eventually to technology transfer.
EPJ D Topical Issue: Spectroscopy of biomolecular ions in vacuo

Submissions are invited for a Topical Issue of EPJD on Spectroscopy of biomolecular ions in vacuo.
Gas-phase studies allow for investigation of intrinsic biomolecular properties that are unperturbed by solvation, counter ions or any other chemical environment. Over the last years, this field has seen big advances due to development of novel experimental techniques and theoretical approaches.
