Current theoretical description of field-induced electron emission remains mostly bounded by the classic Fowler-Nordheim (FN) framework developed nearly one century ago. For the emerging class of two-dimensional (2D) materials, many basic…
The objective of this paper is to describe a development of an innovative approach to enable students studying science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) to apply the concepts learned in physics and mathematics to engineering…
Pulsar emission should primarily come from the magnetic separatrix... Combining theory and observations, we show that force-free electrodynamics (FFE) gives an accurate description of the large-scale electromagnetic field in the…
This is the proceedings article for the concluding lecture of the 1999 High Energy Physics Conference of the European Physical Society. In this article, I review a number of topics that were highlighted at the meeting and have more general…

These lectures are intended to provide the theoretical basis of describing high-energy particle collisions at a level appropriate to graduate students in experimental high energy physics. They are supposed to be familiar with quantum…
The emerging field of quantum sensors and electronics for fundamental physics is introduced, emphasising the role of thin-film superconducting devices. Although the next generation of ground-based and space-based experiments requires the…
A introduction into density-functional theory and electronic structure methods is given, that aims at providing an intuitive understanding of the underlying concepts for the novice as well as an entry point towards the more advanced…
This presentation is a concise teaser for the Effective Field Theory (EFT) of two and three nucleon systems as it emerged in the last three years, using a lot of words and figures, and a few cheats.
Field emission coupled with molecular dynamics simulation (FEcMD) software package is a computational tool for studying the electron emission characteristics and the atomic structure evolution of micro- and nano-protrusions made of pure…
This paper is written as one chapter in a collection of essays on neutrino physics for beginning graduate students. The text presents important experimental methods and issues for those interested in searches for sterile neutrinos. Other…
The first version of these lecture notes is based on the hand-written notes I prepared for the cosmology course taught to graduate students of PPGFis and PPGCosmo at the Federal University of Esp\'irito Santo (UFES), starting in 2014. The…
Transmission electron microscopy at very low energy is a promising way to avoid damaging delicate biological samples with the incident electrons, a known problem in conventional transmission electron microscopy. For imaging in the 0-30 eV…
