Structure of an associating polymer melt in a narrow slit by molecular dynamics
Article Abstract:
The results of molecular dynamics simulations of a model polymer melt incorporating a fraction of associated groups, confined between two atomically smooth surfaces are presented. Results show that strongly attracting walls can produce radical changes in chain conformation, nature of transient network and structure of aggregates formed by associated terminals.

Theoretical study of electromagnetic scattering by metal nanoparticles
Article Abstract:
The general role of the interactions between sample particles, and between particles and tip probe in building up scanning near-field optical microscopic theoretical models are discussed. The optical behavior of simple silver nanoparticle aggregates, in terms of a formalism involving a multipolar expansion of the fields involved is also investigated.
