The absorption of laser energy by plasma is of paramount importance for various applications. Collisional and resonant processes are often invoked for this purpose. However, in some contexts (e.g. in vacuum and the JxB heating), the energy…
The spin transport and spin-to-charge current conversion properties of bismuth are investigated using permalloy/copper/bismuth (Py/Cu/Bi)lateral spin valve structures. The spin current is strongly absorbed at the surface of Bi, leading to…

We examine the absorption spectrum of electromagnetic radiation from excitons, where an exciton in the $1s$ state absorbs a photon and makes a transition to the $2p$ state. We demonstrate that the absorption spectrum depends strongly on the…
We report a recently discovered counterintuitive effect where breaking of a Langmuir wave in a plasma wakefield accelerator leads to an increase in the accelerating field rather than wave dissipation. The effect relies on the ability of…
Lower speed impinging ions (with hydration shells) cannot transverse ion channels once internal charge goes positive. Yet neural pulse waveforms fail to show the expected risetime distortion beginning at zero voltage. Observed waveforms…

An intense, short laser pulse incident on a transparent dielectric can excite electrons from valence to the conduction band. As these electrons undergo scattering, both from phonons and ions, they emit bremsstrahlung radiation. Here we…

We examine a regime in which a linearly-polarized laser pulse with relativistic intensity irradiates a sub-critical plasma for much longer than the characteristic electron response time. A steady-state channel is formed in the plasma in…
