Abstract
We describe the formation of polyampholytic block copolymer brushes and their assembly in solution. Specifically, we employ "surface-initiated" activators regenerated by electron transfer atom transfer radical polymerization (ARGET-ATRP) sequentially to form diblock copolymer grafts comprising blocks of poly[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate] (PDMAEMA) and poly(sodium methacrylate) (PNaMA) on flat impenetrable silica surfaces, i.e., SiO(x)/PNaMA-b-PDMAEMA and SiO(x)/PDMAEMA-b-PNaMA. Protonation of the PNaMA block results in formation of poly(methacrylic acid) (PMAA). We demonstrate that ARGET-ATRP of NaMA provides a convenient route to preparation of PMAA, which is an alternative method to the more traditional approach based on preparing PMAA by polymerizing tert-butyl methacrylate (tBMA) followed by cleavage of the tert-butyl group. We also discuss conformational changes of the individual polyelectrolyte blocks in solution as a function of solution pH by monitoring adsorption behavior of functionalized polystyrene spheres.

Abstract
Kinetic energy releases (KERs) in unimolecular fragmentations of singly and multiply charged ions provide information concerning ion structures, reaction energetics and dynamics. This topic is reviewed covering both early and more recent developments. The subtopics discussed are as follows: (1) introduction and historical background; (2) ion dissociation and kinetic energy release: kinematics; potential energy surfaces; (3) the kinetic energy release distribution (KERD); (4) metastable peak observations: measurements on magnetic sector and time-of-flight instruments; energy selected results by photoelectron photoion coincidence (PEPICO); (5) extracting KERDs from metastable peak shapes; (6) ion structure determination and reaction mechanisms: singly and multiply charged ions; biomolecules and fullerenes; (7) theoretical approaches: phase space theory (PST), orbiting transition state (OTS)/PST, finite heat bath theory (FHBT) and the maximum entropy method; (8) exit channel interactions; (9) general trends: time and energy dependences; (10) thermochemistry: organometallic reactions, proton-bound clusters, fullerenes; and (11) the efficiency of phase space sampling.
