The time evolution of the electron density and the resulting time dependence of X-ray diffraction peak intensity in a crystal irradiated by highly intense femtosecond pulses of an XFEL is investigated theoretically on the basis of rate…
Many of the important conclusions about Gamma-Ray Bursts follow from the distributions of various quantities such as peak flux or duration. We show that for astrophysical transients such as bursts, multiple selection thresholds can lead to…
Saturable absorption is a nonlinear effect where a material's ability to absorb light is frustrated due to a high influx of photons and the creation of electron vacancies. Experimentally induced saturable absorption in copper revealed a…
Interaction of non-relativistic electrons with single crystal target may produce coherent x-rays. That is the result of interference between two known x-ray generation mechanisms having orientational behavior, namely parametric x-rays and…
Crystallization and radiation of accelerator beams is considered. For the first time it is shown that crystallization conditions for charged particle beams differs from those of plasma. Crystallization conditions of charged relativistic…
A theoretical approach for describing the electromagnetic radiation produced by prolonged electron bunch propagating in the lattice of metallic wires of finite length is presented. This approach is based on vibrator antenna theory and…
It is shown that resonance scattering of fast ($pL > >pR > > 1$, $p$ is the particle momentum, $L$ is the longitudinal dimension of the potential, and $R$ is its transverse dimension) charged particles occurs in the extended potential. The…
Several relatively bright, persistent X-ray sources display regular pulses, with periods in the range of 700-10000 s. These sources are identified with massive close binaries in which a neutron star accretes material onto its surface. The…
The radiation formation length for relativistic particles, $l_c \sim \gamma^2 \lambda$ ($\gamma$ is the Lorentz factor, $\lambda$ is the emitted wavelength), is much lager than the inter-particle distances in many astrophysical…
Linear theory of the parametric beam instability or the self-amplification of parametric x-ray radiation (PXR) from relativistic electrons in a crystal is considered taking into account finite emittance of the electron beam and absorption…
Using a 3D fully-vectorial nonlinear time-domain analysis we numerically investigate the generation of terahertz radiation by pumping a photonic crystal microcavity out of resonance. High quality factors and a quadratic susceptibility lead…
The observed lightcurves and estimated sky rate of fast extragalactic x-ray transients (XRTs) discovered in archival Chandra data indicate that they belong to two distinct XRT populations. The first population of relatively short duration…
Our high-time-resolution observations reveal that individual main pulses from the Crab pulsar contain one or more short-lived microbursts. Both the energy and duration of bursts measured above 1 GHz can vary dramatically in less than a…
Recent observations support the suggestion that short-duration gamma-ray bursts are produced by compact star mergers. The X-ray flares discovered in two short gamma-ray bursts last much longer than the previously proposed postmerger energy…
The recent discovery that faint gamma-ray bursts are stretched in time relative to bright ones has been interpreted as support for cosmological distances: faint bursts have their durations redshifted relative to bright ones. It was pointed…
Time-resolved studies have so far relied on rapidly triggering a photo-induced dynamic in chemical or biological ions or molecules and subsequently probing them with a beam of fast moving photons or electrons that crosses the studied…
The time delay between the receptions of ultra-relativistic particles emitted simultaneously is a useful observable for both fundamental physics and cosmology. The expression of the delay when the particles travel through an arbitrary…
Radiation of charged particles passing through a set of equidistant ridges on the surface of a single crystal is calculated. The ridges are rectangular in shape, each of thickness of half of the particle trajectory period at planar…
It is proposed that radiation belts similar to the ones in the planetary magnetosphere can exist for a pulsar with a relatively long period and a strong magnetic field. In the belts located in the closed field line region near the light…
The propagation of an electromagnetic pulse in a plasma is studied for pulse durations that are comparable to the plasma period. When the carrier frequency of the incident pulse is much higher than the plasma frequency, the pulse propagates…
