The BCS-BEC crossover in a lattice is a powerful paradigm to understand how a superconductor deviates from the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer physics as the attractive interaction increases. Optical lattices loaded with binary mixtures of cold…
The oblique geometry of pulsar wind termination shock ensures that the Doppler beaming has a strong impact on the shock emission. We illustrate this using recent relativistic MHD simulations of the Crab Nebula and also show that the…
We present a new symmetry-based concept for an achromatic low-beta collider interaction region design. A specially-designed symmetric Chromaticity Compensation Block (CCB) induces an angle spread in the passing beam such that it cancels the…
Electromagnetic interactions between colliding heavy ions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN will give rise to localized beam losses that may quench superconducting magnets, apart from contributing significantly to the luminosity…
We investigate polarization of high-energy emissions from the Crab pulsar in the frame work of the outer gap accelerator. The recent version of the outer gap, which extends from inside the null charge surface to the light cylinder, is used…
In this paper, we investigate quadrupolar sychrobetatron resonances caused by beam-beam collisions and their interplay with longitudinal wakefields in the context of crab-waist colliders. We present a comprehensive theoretical review of the…
Recent experimental and theoretical developments have motivated interest in a more detailed exploration of heavy ion collisions in the range sqrt(sNN)=5-15 GeV. In contrast to interactions at the full RHIC energy of sqrt(sNN)=200 GeV, such…
The COMPASS experiment makes use of the CERN SPS high-intensitymuon and hadron beams for the investigation of the nucleon spin structure and the spectroscopy of hadrons. One or more outgoing particles are detected in coincidence with the…
Since April 2020, the SuperKEKB has been operating with the crab waist scheme. The luminosity record achieved in June 2022 was $4.71 \times 10^{34} \text{ cm}^{-2}\text{s}^{-1}$, which overtook its predecessor KEKB by more than a factor of…
We use coherent backscattering (CBS) of light by cold Strontium atoms to study the mutual coherence of light waves in the multiple scattering regime. As the probe light intensity is increased, the atomic optical transition starts to be…
The aim of the COMPASS hadron programme is to study the light-quark hadron spectrum, and in particular, to search for evidence of hybrids and glueballs. COMPASS is a fixed-target experiment at the CERN SPS and features a two-stage…
Compound refractive lenses (CRL) offer outstanding potential for probe formation in X-ray micro- and nano-analysis as well as for imaging applications, but effective aberration-free focusing of X-rays is a key consideration when high…
Coherent Synchrotron Radiation (CSR) can play an important role by not only increasing the energy spread and emittance of a beam, but also leading to a potential instability. Previous studies of the CSR induced longitudinal instability were…
Electron lenses are pulsed, magnetically confined electron beams whose current-density profile is shaped to obtain the desired effect on the circulating beam. Electron lenses were used in the Fermilab Tevatron collider for bunch-by-bunch…
It is generally accepted that astrophysical sources cannot emit synchrotron radiation above 160 MeV in their rest frame. This limit is given by the balance between the accelerating electric force and the radiation reaction force acting on…
We have searched the region surrounding the Crab Nebula for the existence of a shock wave with the imaging instruments of the Einstein Observatory. The search is complicated by the scattering of nebula and pulsar X-rays from the imperfectly…
NA60+ is a fixed target experiment proposed in the framework of the Physics Beyond Colliders programme at CERN. It aims to precisely measure the hard and electromagnetic probes in nuclear collisions. Initially proposed for the underground…
The European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) has recently approved a world-unique QCD facility in which an updated version of the external M2 beam line of the CERN SPS in conjunction with a universal spectrometer of the COMPASS…
The efficiency of colliders for physics is largely determined by their luminosity, while most of the energy consumed by high-energy $e^+e^-$ colliders is proportional to the total beam current. Thus, the energy efficiency is mainly…
The poor angular resolution of imaging gamma-ray telescopes is offset by the large reflector areas of next generation telescopes such as MAGIC (17~m diameter), which makes the study of optical emission associated with some gamma-ray sources…
