This is the second in a series of two lectures on the technique of dimensional continuation, a new method for analytically calculating certain energy transport quantities in a weakly to moderately coupled plasma. Recently, this method was…
This is the third in a series of lectures on the technique of dimensional continuation, employed by Brown, Preston and Singleton (BPS), for calculating Coulomb energy exchange rates in a plasma. Two important examples of such processes are…
Brown, Preston, and Singleton (BPS) produced an analytic calculation for energy exchange processes for a weakly to moderately coupled plasma: the electron-ion temperature equilibration rate and the charged particle stopping power. These…
I will discuss a new method for calculating transport quantities, such as the charged particle stopping power, in a weakly to moderately coupled plasma. This method, called dimensional continuation, lies within the framework of convergent…
We present results of first principle numerical simulations of the Bose one-component plasma, i.e., a Bose gas with pairwise Coulomb interactions among particles and a uniform neutralizing background. We compute the superconducting…
A general formalism for the treatment of density fluctuations in Coulomb plasmas is presented and applied to the treatment of temperature relaxation in multi-component quantum plasmas when the separate components (electrons and ions) relax…
The simplest statistical mechanics model of a Coulomb plasma in two spatial dimensions admits an exact analytic solution at some special temperature in several (curved) surfaces. We present in a unifying perspective these solutions for the…
Boltzmann equations and their matrix valued generalisations are commonly used to describe nonequilibrium phenomena in cosmology. On the other hand, it is known that in gauge theories at high temperature processes involving many quanta,…
The relaxation rate of a Maxwellian velocity distribution function that has an initially anisotropic temperature $(T_\parallel \neq T_\perp)$ is an important physical process in space and laboratory plasmas. It is also a canonical example…
The charged particle stopping power in a highly ionized and weakly to moderately coupled plasma has been calculated to leading and next-to-leading order by Brown, Preston, and Singleton (BPS). After reviewing the main ideas behind this…
An important process for antimatter experiments is the cooling of particles in a Penning-Malmberg trap to experimentally useful temperatures. A non-neutral plasma of one species (e.g. antiprotons) can be collisionally cooled on another…
Understanding relaxation processes is an important unsolved problem in many areas of physics. A key challenge in studying such non-equilibrium dynamics is the scarcity of experimental tools for characterizing their complex transient states.…
Thermalization in an expanding parton plasma is studied within the framework of Boltzmann equation in the absence of any mean fields. In particular, we study the time-dependence of the relaxation time to the lowest order in finite…
A recently introduced method utilizing dimensional continuation is employed to compute the energy loss rate for a non-relativistic particle moving through a highly ionized plasma. No restriction is made on the charge, mass, or speed of this…
We present a kinetic description of Bose-Einstein condensation for particle systems being out of thermal equilibrium, which may happen for gluons produced in the early stage of ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions. The dynamics of bosons…
This paper introduces a novel approach for automated estimation of plasma temperature and density using emission spectroscopy, integrating Bayesian inference with sophisticated physical models. We provide an in-depth examination of Bayesian…
Experimentally the temperature in a Bose--Einstein condensate is always deduced resorting to the comparison between the Maxwell--Boltzmann velocity distribution function and the density profile in momentum space. Though a successful method…
We experimentally study the energy-temperature relationship of a harmonically trapped Bose-Einstein condensate by transferring a known quantity of energy to the condensate and measuring the resulting temperature change. We consider two…
The relaxed state of a magnetized relativistic hot plasma composed of inertial electrons and positrons having different relativistic temperatures and a fraction of static positive ions is studied. From the steady-state solutions of vortex…
A theoretical approach to describing transport of an entire ensemble of clusters with different sizes as a single species in gas has been developed. The major assumption is an existence of local partial chemical equilibrium between the…
