We report the first detection of triply-deuterated methanol, with 12 observed transitions, towards the low-mass protostar IRAS 16293-2422, as well as multifrequency observations of 13CH3OH, used to derive the column density of the main…
A new approach to deuterium ion sources for deuterium-tritium neutron generators is being developed. The source is based upon the field desorption of deuterium from the surfaces of metal tips. Field desorption studies of microfabricated…
Graviton absorption cross sections and emission rates for hydrogen are calculated by both semi-classical and field theoretic methods. We point out several mistakes in the literature concerning spontaneous emission of gravitons and related…
The surprising low TOTEM datum $\rho_{pp}$ = 0.09$\pm$0.01 at 13 TeV \cite{TOTEM-1} generated an important flux of papers, which can be classified in three categories: 1) papers which claim that this result is the first experimental…

The present study shows that the new TOTEM datum $\rho^{pp} = 0.098 \pm 0.01$ can be considered as the first experimental discovery of the Odderon, namely in its maximal form.
This is a brief review of liquid scintillators, an important technology for detection of ionizing radiation. We will first review the basic mechanisms of light production in most organic liquid scintillators. For most practical detector…
A detailed experimental investigation and theoretical analysis have been made in the V-type 85Rb atomic medium. Seven induced transparency windows, including a central double-peak-structure, have been observed experimentally when a coupling…
Authors describe technical advances that will allow the IsoDAR cyclotron -- being developed for neutrino physics research -- to produce medical isotopes more efficiently than existing cyclotrons can.
Vanadium is an elemental type-II superconductor which has a pure superconducting phase, a vortex phase, and a non-superconducting phase. We designed and carried out a low-budget experiment in our undergraduate physics lab to measure the…
