This book summarizes the latest findings by leading researchers in the field of photon science in Russia and Japan. It discusses recent advances in the field of photon science and chemistry, covering a wide range of topics, including photochemistry and spectroscopy of novel materials, magnetic properties of solids, photobiology and imaging, and spectroscopy of solids and nanostructures. Based on lectures by respected scientists at the forefront of photon and molecular sciences, the book helps keep readers abreast of the current developments in the field.

Self-action of Femtosecond Optical Vortex in a Medium with Kerr Nonlinearity.- Diagnostic of Peak Laser Intensity by Electron and Positron Production from Laser Plasma.- Theoretical Model for Simulation of Rotational Excitation in Air-lasing.- Photocatalysts for Reduction of Molecular Oxygen to Hydrogen Peroxide.- Rare Earth Ion Based Luminescence Thermometry.

Kaoru Yamanouchi is a full professor in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Tokyo and one of the world-leading scientists in the field of ultrafast intense laser science. He is an organizer of a series of international symposia in the field, such as the International Symposium on Ultrafast Intense Laser Science (ISUILS) series. He is the recipient of numerous awards and honors, such as the Morino Fellowship, the Chemical Society of Japan Award for Young Scientists, the Japan IBM Prize, the 67th Chemical Society of Japan (CSJ) Award, the 7th Japan Society for Molecular Science Award, and Medal of Honor with Purple Ribbon from the Japanese Government. He is the author of over 280 peer-reviewed publications and numerous books on the subject of ultrafast intense laser science.

Alina Manshina is a full professor at the Institute of Chemistry at St. Petersburg State University since 2018. She specializes in laser chemistry and materials science and has developed the scientific fundamentals surrounding the creation of complex multiphase nanomaterials due to laser-initiated self-organization processes, resulting in novel hybrid nanostructures. She has published more than 100 scientific works and was awarded with the Silver Medal and Diploma for Innovation from the Belgian and International Trade Fair for Technological Innovation in 2007. She is the editorial board member of the Nature journal Scientific Reports, as well as the Journal of the European Optical Society–Rapid Publications. Currently, she is a scientific coordinator of the German-Russian International Scientific Council steering committee.

Vladimir Makarov is Professor and Head of the Department of General Physics and Wave Processes, Moscow State University. Currently, his research interests are in the fields of laser physics, nonlinear optics, interaction of laser radiation with matter, applications of lasers in the life sciences, and fundamentals of
