Background. This randomized, open trial compared regimens including 2 doses (2D) of human papillomavirus (HPV) 16/18 AS04-adjuvanted vaccine in girls aged 9-14 years with one including 3 doses (3D) in women aged 15-25 years. Methods. Girls aged 9-14 years were randomized to receive 2D at months 0 and 6 (M0,6; (n = 550) or months 0 and 12...

Background: We previously reported the noninferiority 1 month after the last dose of 2-dose human papillomavirus 16/18 AS04-adjuvanted (AS04-HPV-16/18) vaccine schedules at months 0 and 6 (2D_M0,6) and months 0 and 12 (2D_M0,12) in girls aged 9-14 years compared with a 3-dose schedule at months 0, 1, and 6 (3D_M0,1,6) in women aged 15-25 years....

We investigate the photoionization of 16 chiral molecules by elliptical femtosecond pulses in an optical cavity. The photoelectron dichroism is highly sensitive to molecular structure and enables precise measurements of enantiomeric excess.

The photoionization of chiral molecules by elliptically polarized femtosecond laser pulses produces photoelectron angular distributions which show a strong and enantio-sensitive forward/backward asymmetry along the light propagation direction. We report on high precision measurements of this photoelectron elliptical dichroism (PEELD). Using an...
