Drout M, Piro A, Shappee B, Kilpatrick C, Simon J, Contreras C, et al.
Science . 2017 Oct; 358(6370):1570-1574. PMID: 29038375
On 17 August 2017, gravitational waves (GWs) were detected from a binary neutron star merger, GW170817, along with a coincident short gamma-ray burst, GRB 170817A. An optical transient source, Swope...

Sternberg A, Gal-Yam A, Simon J, Leonard D, Quimby R, Phillips M, et al.
Science . 2011 Aug; 333(6044):856-9. PMID: 21836010
Type Ia supernovae are key tools for measuring distances on a cosmic scale. They are generally thought to be the thermonuclear explosion of an accreting white dwarf in a close...

J Mass Spectrom . 2010 Dec; 46(1):90-5. PMID: 21182214
The accumulation of lipofuscin has previously been implicated in several retinal diseases including Best's macular dystrophy, Stargardt's disease and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Previously one of the major fluorophores of...

Murdaugh L, Avalle L, Mandal S, Dill A, Dillon J, Simon J, et al.
J Mass Spectrom . 2010 Sep; 45(10):1139-47. PMID: 20860013
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is an ocular disease that causes visual loss and legal blindness in the elderly population. The etiology of AMD is complex and may include genetic predispositions,...

Soderberg A, Berger E, Page K, Schady P, Parrent J, Pooley D, et al.
Nature . 2008 May; 453(7194):469-74. PMID: 18497815
Massive stars end their short lives in spectacular explosions--supernovae--that synthesize new elements and drive galaxy evolution. Historically, supernovae were discovered mainly through their 'delayed' optical light (some days after the...

Science . 2007 Jul; 317(5840):924-6. PMID: 17626848
Type Ia supernovae are important cosmological distance indicators. Each of these bright supernovae supposedly results from the thermonuclear explosion of a white dwarf star that, after accreting material from a...

Photochem Photobiol . 2005 Mar; 81(4):711-35. PMID: 15755193
Free-Electron Lasers (FELs) collectively operate from the terahertz through the ultraviolet range and via intracavity Compton backscattering into the X-ray and gamma-ray regimes. FELs are continuously tunable and can provide...
