The possibility to determine the axial strange form factor of the nucleon from elastic neutrino-nucleon scattering experiments is studied. The existing experimental information is shortly mentioned and several observables which could be…
Neutron reflectometry is a method for measuring of the spatial dependence (profile) of the potential interaction between neutron and medium. At interface of media the interaction potential is the sum of the elements potentials. For…
Mirrors are ubiquitous in optics and are used to control the propagation of optical signals in space. Here we propose and demonstrate frequency domain mirrors that provide reflections of the optical energy in a frequency synthetic…
In specular reflection experiments the reflected beam from the end side of thick substrates is typically neglected. This is equivalent to assuming the substrates as semi-infinite matter. However, it is known that we should also consider the…

We simplify the Ashworth-Davies special relativistic theory of a uniformly translating mirror with an arbitrary angle of incidence and direction of propagation in the non-relativistic limit. We show that it is in good agreement with a more…
If neutrinos produced in astrophysics sources oscillate, neutrino telescopes can have a chance to detect signals from tau-neutrinos. We present an estimate of the 'double bang' event rate produced by tau neutrinos in cubic kilometer scale…
It is considered neutrino flux in the rotating reference frame. Due to the rotation of the frame, neutrino is observed as a superposition of two states P-transformed one from another. Since P-transformation is forbidden for neutrino, in the…

Ring resonators provide a means of filtering specific wavelengths from a waveguide, and optionally dropping the filtered wavelengths into a second waveguide. Both of these features are potentially useful for astronomical instruments. In…
The Einstein Telescope is a third-generation underground gravitational wave observatory designed to achieve unprecedented sensitivity down to 3 Hz. Waves propagating in the soil due to anthropogenic or natural vibration sources generate…
The near fields of small-size extended hemielliptic lenses made of rexolite and isotropic quartz and illuminated by E- and H-polarized plane waves are studied. Variations in the focal domain size, shape, and location are presented versus…
