What is the Structure of the Hydrated Electron?
A simple structural motif has been computationally uncovered that well reproduces all the observed experimental properties of the excess electron in water.

Congratulations to the following recent Radiation Laboratory Ph.D. graduates on their new positions!
Jeff Christians has moved to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory in Golden, Colorado. He will be working as a postdocutral research with Dr. Joseph Luther.
Doug Hines will start…

New Postdoctural Researcher Subha Sadhu has recently joined the Notre Dame Radiation Laboratory. She will be studying XPS characterization of surfaces involved in energy-related processes. Dr. Sadhu comes to us from CSIR-National Chemical Laboratory in Pune, India.
Assistant Professors Tomek Pedzinski and Piotr Filipiak spent the month of June at the Notre Dame Radiation Laboratory
