S77 NANOSCIENCE AND NANOTECHNOLOGYAll aspects of nanoscience and nanotechnology, which encompasses both the control of matter and the fabrication of devices with critical dimensions in the nanometer size range. Theoretical and experimental studies as well as applications are included. All applications of radiation in nanoscience and nanotechnology

S79 ASTROPHYSICS, COSMOLOGY AND ASTRONOMYApplication of physical theories and methods to study solar, stellar and galactic origin, structures and evolution, stellar objects and galaxies; and related problems in cosmologyNote: Only if it is of nuclear interest or if it is associated with cosmic radiation, nuclear and high-energy physics.
