Professor Günter Gauglitz has published over 260 publications on photokinetics, UV-VIS spectroscopy, chromatographic detection, optical sensors, modification and characterization of boundary layers, and many more topics. He is the author of several books on practical spectroscopy, and basics and applications in photokinetics, among chapters on sensors and surface modifications. He is holder of more than 10 patents. He received the Wallac Award of the Society of Biomolecular Screening in 1997, the Pregl Medal of the Austrian Chemical Society in 2006 and the Carl-Duisberg-Medal of the German Chemical Society in 2012.Dr. David S. Moore received the 2009 Los Alamos Fellows Prize for Leadership and is a Fellow of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (2011) and the American Physical Society (2004). He was also an Alexander von Humboldt Fellow (Essen 1993-94). Moore's research involves the use of nonlinear optical and ultrafast spectroscopies to understand the behavior of molecules under shock compression, the use of Raman, coherent Raman, and surface enhanced Raman methods for trace explosives detection and identification, the application of coherent control methods for condensed phase chemistry (explosive initiation) and explosives detection, and the development of remote stimulation methods to detect explosives via alternative signatures. He is presently a Research Scientist and Group Leader at Los Alamos, is author of more than 180 publications and seven book chapters, and is the holder of five patents
