Collisional energy loss of a fast particle in a medium is mostly due to the medium polarization by the electromagnetic fields of the particle. A small fraction of energy is carried away by the Cherenkov radiation. In chiral medium there is…
Stochasticity of magnetic field lines is important for particle transport properties. Magnetic field lines separate faster than diffusively in turbulent plasma, which is called superdiffusion. We discovered that this superdiffusion is…

We use the cyclotron-maser theory to explain the core emission from the magnetosphere of pulsars. As a kind of direct and efficient maser type of emission, it can give rise to escaping radiation with extremely high brightness temperature…
We study reaction-diffusion particle systems with several interaction mechanisms. As the number of particles tends to infinity, the system admits a mean-field limit describing the bulk behaviour. We focus on determining the propagation…

It is in accordance with such experiments as single photon self-interference that a photon, conveying one radiation energy quantum "$ h \times$ frequency", is spatially extensive and stretches an electromagnetic wave train. A wave train,…
Although travelling faster than the speed of light in vacuum is not physically allowed, the analogous bound in medium can be exceeded by a moving particle. For an electron in dielectric material this leads to emission of photons which is…
We demonstrate that particles are regularly accelerated while experiencing curvature drift in flows driven by magnetic tension. Some examples of such flows include spontaneous turbulent reconnection and decaying magnetohydrodynamic (MHD)…
Cherenkov radiation (CR) generated by a charge moving along one of the faces of a dielectric prism is analyzed. Unlike our previous papers, here we suppose that the charge moves from the the prism ``nose'' to its base. For CR analysis, we…
