Cover: The cover presents two SEM micrographs showing stacks of bacterial spores on the inner surface of a Teflon tube (i.d./o.d. 4/6 mm). Low‐damage sterilization is achieved using a glow‐discharge in flowing argon at reduced pressure, directly within the thermally‐sensitive dielectric tube. Further details can be found in the article by J. Pollak, M. Moisan,* D. Kéroack, J. Séguin, and J. Barbeau on page 14.
