We consider a speculative model for gamma-ray bursts (GRB), which predicts that the total kinetic energy in the ejected matter is less than the total energy in the gamma rays. There is also secondary energy in X-rays, which are emitted…
Conditions for the appearance of a nuclear exciton in a crystal consisting of excited and unexcited nuclei of a given type are determined. The total probabilities for spontaneous -emission by a single excited nucleus or by an arbitrary…
We report on the crystallographic structure of the layered compound Pb3Mn7O15. Previous analysis based on laboratory X-ray data at room temperature gave contradictory results in terms of the description of the unit cell. Motivated by recent…
We propose a pyroelectric energy conversion device that converts heat directly to electricity. In contrast to conventional pyroelectric energy conversion designs, this energy harvesting system is detached from any external power sources,…
The X-ray spectrum from a cool disk embedded in an ion supported torus is computed. The interaction of the hot ions with the disk increases the hard X-ray luminosity of the system}. A surface layer of the disk is heated by the protons from…
Using the Bayesian calibrated iEBE-MUSIC framework, we compute the production of electromagnetic radiation from hot hadronic matter at finite baryon density. Results for thermal photon and thermal dilepton yields are obtained by folding…
X-shaped radio galaxies are defined by their peculiar large-scale radio morphology. In addition to the classical double-lobed structure they have a pair of low-luminosity wings that straddles the nucleus at almost right angles to the active…

The key empirical property of the X-ray emission from O stars is a strong correlation between the bolometric and X-ray luminosities. In the framework of the Chandra Carina Complex Project, 129 O and B stars have been detected as X-ray…
The amplitude of Parametric X-ray radiation emitted coherently by a bunch of electrons crossing a crystal (CPXR) is calculated. When the bunch density is modulated with a longitudinal period close to the X-ray wavelenght, constructive…
The features of a compact, single pass, multi-pixel optical parametric generator are discussed. Several hundreds of independent high spatial-quality tunable ultrashort pulses were produced by pumping a bulk lithium triborate crystal with an…
