The axial light distributions in parallel-plate dc microdischarges in argon show similar behavior to large scale discharges. Between the low-current Townsend mode and the high current glow mode exists a large region of currents where…
The effect of the lattice periodic potential on superconductivity which was ignored by BCS theory has been investigated. According to the effective mass approximation of band theory, the effect of lattice periodic potential can be embodied…
We study the amplitude-constrained additive white Gaussian noise channel. It is well known that the capacity-achieving input distribution for this channel is discrete and supported on finitely many points. The best known bounds show that…
The assumption that radiative cooling of gas in the centers of galaxy clusters is approximately balanced by energy input from a central supermassive black hole implies that the observed X-ray luminosity of the cooling flow region sets a…
Sgr A* is a source of strongly variable emission in several energy bands. It is generally agreed that this emission comes from the material surrounding the black hole which is either falling in or flowing out. The activity must be driven by…
We establish the anomalous mean dissipation rate of energy in the inviscid limit for a stochastic shell model of turbulent fluid flow. The proof relies on viscosity independent bounds for stationary solutions and on establishing ergodic and…
A finite equilibrium current density arises in the anomalous Hall effect (AHE) as a result of time-reversal symmetry breaking, affecting both the differential current density and total current. This study illustrates the equilibrium current…
We consider a current-carrying, phase-coherent multi-probe conductor to which a small tunneling contact is attached. We treat the conductor and the tunneling contact as a phase-coherent entity and use a Green's function formulation of the…
We are modelling multi-scale, multi-physics uncertainty in wave-current interaction (WCI). To model uncertainty in WCI, we introduce stochasticity into the wave dynamics of two classic models of WCI; namely, the Generalised Lagrangian Mean…
This paper presents the possibility of using very thin Low Gain Avalanche Diodes (LGAD) ($25 - 50\mu$m thick) as tracking detector at future hadron colliders, where particle fluence will be above $10^{16}\; n_{eq}/cm^2$. In the present…
Extensions of the Standard Model with extra neutral currents due to additional anomalous abelian gauge factors are considered. We summarize the main features of the effective action associated to these theories. They are characterized by an…
This study investigates a mechanism of controlling separated flows around an airfoil using a synthetic jet (SJ). A large-eddy simulation (LES) was performed for a leading-edge separation flow around a NACA0015 airfoil at the chord Reynolds…
For singularly perturbed reaction-diffusion problems in 1D and 2D, we study a local discontinuous Galerkin (LDG) method on a Shishkin mesh. In these cases, the standard energy norm is too weak to capture adequately the behavior of the…
Logic circuits consist of devices that can be controlled between two distinct states. The recent demonstration that a superconducting current flowing in a constriction can be controlled via a gate voltage ($V_G$) - can lead to…
We study the survival of the current induced initially by applying a twist at the boundary of a chain of hard-core bosons (HCBs), subject to a periodic double $\delta$-function kicks in the staggered on-site potential. We study the current…
