There are many mononuclear iron containing enzymes in nature that
utilize molecular oxygen and transfer one or both oxygen atoms of
O2 to substrates. These enzymes catalyze many processes including
the biosynthesis of hormones, the metabolism of drugs, DNA and RNA
base repair and, the biosynthesis of antibiotics. Therefore,
mononuclear iron containing enzymes are important intermediates in
bioprocesses and have great potential in the commercial
biosynthesis of specific products since they often catalyze
reactions regioselectively or stereospecifically. Understanding
their mechanism and function is important and will assist in
searches for commercial exploitation. In recent years, advances in
experimental as well as theoretical methodologies have made it
possible to study the mechanism and function of these enzymes and
much information on their properties has been gained. This book
highlighting recent developments in the field is, therefore, a
timely addition to the literature and will interest a broad
readership in the fields of biochemistry, inorganic chemistry and
computational chemistry. The Editors, leaders in the field of
nonheme and heme iron containing monoxygenases, have filled the
book with topical review chapters by leaders in the various
sub-disciplines.
Ion beams have been used for decades for characterizing and
analyzing materials. Now energetic ion beams are providing ways to
modify the materials in unprecedented ways. This book highlights
the emergence of high-energy swift heavy ions as a tool for
tailoring the properties of materials with nanoscale structures.
Swift heavy ions interact with materials by exciting/ionizing
electrons without directly moving the atoms. This opens a new
horizon towards the 'so-called' soft engineering. The book
discusses the ion beam technology emerging from the non-equilibrium
conditions and emphasizes the power of controlled irradiation to
tailor the properties of various types of materials for specific
needs.

The book presents a detailed study of conformation and interactions
in some mesogenic molecules. With help of computed pair potentials
using multicentre multi pole interactions mesogenic properties were
predicted. The role asymmetric pair potential for the mesogenic
behavior is nicely explained. The relationship between smectic
phases, nematic phases & Isotropic phases and mode of
intermolecular interaction were explained based on computed data. A
simple model to calculate nematic to isotropic transition
temperature were presented and trend of even-odd effect in
transition temperature explained using intermolecular interactions
energies.
Materials with nanometric dimensions such as nanodots, nanowire,
nanotubes, functional structures, multi-layers of low dimensions,
have unique properties, which can be tuned by varying their size.
Therefore they have tremendous potentials for applications in
various fields. The understanding of the properties of these low
dimension systems is equally interesting and challenging. This book
reviews research on applications and theoretical modelling of ion
beams in the field of nanotechnology.
