In this work, a combination of cathode retraction and two-slit emittance measurement technique is proposed as an advanced means to individually modify emittance growth components, specifically, rf injector fringe fields, to isolate and…
The usual computation of the spontaneous emission uses a mixture of classical and quantum postulates. A purely classical computation shows that a source of electromagnetic field absorbs light in the eigenmode it is able to emit. Thus in an…
Nondipole effects are ubiquitous and crucial in light-matter interaction. However, they are too weak to be directly observed. In strong-field physics, motion of electrons is mainly confined in transverse plane of light fields, which…
In a scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM), producing a high-resolution image generally requires an electron beam focused to the smallest point possible. However, the magnetic lenses used to focus the beam are unavoidably…

Each natural mode of the electromagnetic field within a parabolic mirror exhibits spatial localization and polarization properties that can be exploited for the quantum control of its interaction with atomic systems. The region of…
We study theoretically the rate of spontaneous emission of a two-level quantum emitter embedded in realistic systems: near a mirror, near a plasmonic sphere, or in a 3D photonic bandgap crystal. At constant frequency and position, we find…
The baseline design for the High Energy Photon Source has been proposed, with an emittance of 60 pm.rad within a circumference of 1.3 kilometers. Nevertheless, the nonlinear performance of the design needs further improvements to enlarge…

I show that the quadrupole of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) evolves more rapidly than previously expected, as a result of the acceleration of the Sun towards the Galactic center. The acceleration, measured most recently by Gaia…
In the spacetime of a $d$-dimensional static tense brane black hole we elaborate the mechanism by which massive scalar fields decay. The metric of a six-dimensional black hole pierced by a topological defect is especially interesting. It…

Flat beams feature unequal emittances in the horizontal and vertical phase space. Those beams were created successfully in lepton machines. Although a number of applications will profit also from flat hadron beams, to our knowledge they…
Chloroplasts regulate their growth to optimize photosynthesis. Quantitative data shows that the ratio of total chloroplast area to mesophyll cell area is constant across different cells within a single species, and also across species.…
Loop-aligned hydrodynamic modelings help better understand the thermodynamic evolution of flaring plasma confined in solar flare loops. Conventional loop modelings typically assume a uniform loop cross section. With a variation of the cross…
The observed CMB (cosmic microwave background) dipole asymmetry cannot be explained by a single field model of inflation - it inevitably requires more than one field where one of the fields is responsible for amplifying the super-Hubble…
A new picture of pulsar high-energy emission is proposed that is different from both the traditional polar cap and outer gap models, but combines elements of each. The slot gap model is based on electron acceleration along the edge of the…
Effect of guiding magnetic field on evolution of stimulated emission is considered. It is shown that the transverse dynamics of electrons contributes to generation process and that contribution decreases with the magnetic field grows. The…
