Understanding transverse coupling dynamics is crucial for beam physics, accelerator design, and operations. Currently, most accelerators are designed for uncoupled beams, and coupling is treated as an error or perturbation. Many transverse…
Time-centered, hence second-order, methods for integrating the relativistic momentum of charged particles in an electromagnetic field are derived. A new method is found by averaging the momentum before use in the magnetic rotation term, and…
The transport of high-energy particles in the presence of small-scale, turbulent magnetic fields is a long-standing issue in astrophysics. Analytical theories on transport perpendicular to the large-scale magnetic field disagree with…
We define and compute the renormalized four-momentum of the composed physical system: classical Maxwell field interacting with charged point particles. As a `reference' configuration for the field surrounding the particle, we take the Born…
We analyse the use of wavelet transform in quantum field theory models written in light-front coordinates. In a recent paper [W.N Polyzou, Phys. Rev. D 101(2020) 096004] W.N.Polyzou used $x^+$ variable as 'time', and applied wavelet…
Local Lorentz invariance violation can be realized by introducing extra tensor fields in the action that couple to matter. If the Lorentz violation is rotationally invariant in some frame, then it is characterized by an ``aether'', i.e. a…
Abridged. Kinetic plasma simulations are nowadays commonly used to study a wealth of non-linear behaviours and properties in laboratory and space plasmas. In particular, in high-energy physics and astrophysics, the plasma usually evolves in…

We obtain a Lorentz covariant wave equation whose complex wave function transforms under a Lorentz boost according to the following rule, $\Psi(x)\rightarrow e^{\frac{i}{\hbar}f(x)}\Psi(x)$. We show that the spacetime dependent phase $f(x)$…
Preoccupied with measurement, physics has neglected the need, before anything can be measured, to recognize what it is that is to be measured. The recognition of symbols employs a known physical mechanism. The elemental mechanism-a damped…
When particles move at a constant speed and have the tendency to align their directions of motion, ordered large scale movement can emerge despite significant levels of noise. Many variants of this model of self-propelled particles have…
Methods to extract information from the tracking of mobile objects/particles have broad interest in biological and physical sciences. Techniques based on simple criteria of proximity in time-consecutive snapshots are useful to identify the…
In natural and laboratory magnetized plasmas, an equilibrium electric field may exist perpendicular to the background magnetic field. In such a situation all the plasma species experience a common drift and the unperturbed distribution…
We propose a filter method to generate electron beams of high polarization from bubble and blow-out wakefield accelerators. The mechanism is based on the idea to identify all electron-beam subsets with low-polarization and to filter them…
First-order Fermi acceleration processes at ultrarelativistic shocks are studied with Monte Carlo simulations. The accelerated particle spectra are obtained by integrating the exact particle trajectories in a turbulent magnetic field near…
Relativistic quantum theories are usually thought of as being quantum field theories, but this is not the only possibility. Here we consider relativistic quantum theories with a fixed number of particles that interact neither through…

A model detector undergoing constant, infinite-duration acceleration converges to an equilibrium state described by the Hawking-Unruh temperature $T_a=(a/2\pi)(\hbar/c)$. To relate this prediction to experimental observables, a point-like…
