The distribution of the dark matter (DM) in DM-admixed-neutron stars (DANSs) is supposed to be either a dense dark core or an extended dark halo, which is subject to the DM fraction of DANS ($f_{\chi}$) and the DM properties, such as the…
We report on the first solid-state dual-comb mode-locked laser simultaneously operating in different dispersion regimes. Due to the intrinsic polarization-multiplexing in a birefringent Yb:Ca$_3$NbGa$_3$Si$_2$O$_{14}$ (Yb:CNGS) gain medium,…

A thin layer of overdense plasma is created when an electromagnetic pulse interacts with a rapidly ionizing thin foil. This layer will reflect the incoming pulse, forming a so-called plasma mirror. A simple realistic model based on paired…
