In this talk, I review the status of the calculation of the photon production rate in a hot quark-gluon plasma. Particular emphasis is given to the discussion of the various length scales of the problem.
Plasma processing using a mixture of noble gas and oxygen is a technique that is currently being used to reduce field emission and multipacting in accelerating cavities. Plasma is created inside the cavity when the gas mixture is exposed to…

Condensates of atoms with spins can have vortices of several types; these are related to the symmetry group of the atoms' ground state. We discuss how, when a condensate is placed in a small magnetic field that breaks the spin symmetry,…
