We discuss the theory of coupled ionization--dissociation fronts produced when molecular clouds are exposed to $\lambda < 1110$\AA\ radiation from hot stars. A steady, composite structure is developed, which generally includes an ionized…
MRT unstable plumes are observed in a loop-like eruptive prominence using SDO/AIA observations. The small-scale cavities are developed within the prominence, where perturbations trigger dark plumes (P1 \& P2) propagating with the speed of…
We study the diffraction phase of different orders via the Dyson expansion series, for ultracold atomic gases scattered by a standing-wave pulse. As these diffraction phases are not observable in a single pulse scattering process, a…
We study with a two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulation the stability of a discontinuity or piston, which separates an electron-positron cloud from a cooler electron-proton plasma. Such a piston might be present in the relativistic jets…
