Extensive research on ultrashort laser-induced melting of noble metals like Au, Ag and Cu is available. However, studies on laser energy deposition and thermal damage of their alloys, which are currently attracting interest for energy harvesting and storage devices, are limited. This study investigates the melting damage threshold (DT) of three intermetallic alloys of Au and Cu (AuCu, AuCu and AuCu) subjected to single-pulse femtosecond laser irradiation, comparing them with their constituent metals.

RNA recognition motifs (RRMs) are a key class of proteins that primarily bind single-stranded RNAs. In this study, we applied standard atomistic molecular dynamics simulations to obtain insights into the intricate binding dynamics between uridine-rich RNAs and TbRGG2 RRM using the recently developed OL3-Stafix AMBER force field, which improves the description of single-stranded RNA molecules. Complementing structural experiments that unveil a primary binding mode with a single uridine bound, our simulations uncover two supplementary binding modes in which adjacent nucleotides encroach upon the binding pocket.

This paper presents a grid-based approach to model molecular association processes as an alternative to sampling-based Markov models. Our method discretizes the six-dimensional space of relative translation and orientation into grid cells. By discretizing the Fokker-Planck operator governing the system dynamics via the square-root approximation, we derive analytical expressions for the transition rate constants between grid cells.

The contamination of groundwater with geogenic ammonium (NH) across various geological backgrounds has garnered significant attention, particularly in coastal aquifer systems. However, there remains a gap in our understanding of the mechanisms governing the spatial variability of NH in coastal groundwater at a macroscopic scale. In this study, we collected the sediment samples from two boreholes corresponding to high-NH-N and low-NH-N groundwater.
