... By RHR-2, we see that when the current points up, the mag. field points into the screen, and when the current points down, the mag. field points out of the screen. Thus, I have a changing magnetic field and a changing electric field which are oriented at right angles to each other! The electric fiel ...

... Proteins consist of chains of amino acids linked together by so-called peptide bonds. These amino acids are selected from the set of 20 amino acids coded by DNA. While water makes up 70% of a cell's weight, proteins account for more than 50% of the cell's remaining weight (Alberts et al. 1994). One ...

Circular dichroism
Circular dichroism (CD) is dichroism involving circularly polarized light, i.e., the differential absorption of left- and right-handed light. Left-hand circular (LHC) and right-hand circular (RHC) polarized light represent two possible spin angular momentum states for a photon, and so circular dichroism is also referred to as dichroism for spin angular momentum. This phenomenon was discovered by Jean-Baptiste Biot, Augustin Fresnel, and Aimé Cotton in the first half of the 19th century. It is exhibited in the absorption bands of optically active chiral molecules. CD spectroscopy has a wide range of applications in many different fields. Most notably, UV CD is used to investigate the secondary structure of proteins. UV/Vis CD is used to investigate charge-transfer transitions. Near-infrared CD is used to investigate geometric and electronic structure by probing metal d→d transitions. Vibrational circular dichroism, which uses light from the infrared energy region, is used for structural studies of small organic molecules, and most recently proteins and DNA.
