The localized deposition of the energy of a laser pulse, as it ablates a solid target, introduces high thermal pressure gradients in the plasma. The thermal expansion of this laser-heated plasma into the ambient medium (ionized residual…
Production of antihydrogen atoms by mixing antiprotons with a cold, confined, positron plasma depends critically on parameters such as the plasma density and temperature. We discuss non-destructive measurements, based on a novel, real-time…
In a multiprocessor system on chip (MPSoC) IC the processor is one of the highest heat dissipating devices. The temperature generated in an IC may vary with floor plan of the chip. This paper proposes an integration and thermal analysis…
We theoretically investigate the plasmonic heating of graphene-based systems under the mid-infrared laser irradiation, where periodic arrays of graphene plasmonic resonators are placed on dielectric thin films. Optical resonances are…
Various mechanisms of thermal photon production are reviewed and their implications for heavy ion collisions are briefly sketched.
We report on a non-interacting technique for thermal characterization of fluids based on surface plasmon resonance interrogation. Using liquid volumes less than 20 micro liters we have determined the materials' thermo-optic coefficients…
Polycrystalline diamond coatings have been grown on cemented carbide substrates with different aspect ratios by a microwave plasma CVD in methane-hydrogen gas mixtures. To protect the edges of the substrates from non-uniform heating due to…
A description of an edge-biasing experiment conducted on the SPECTOR (Spherical Compact Toroid) plasma injector is presented, along with initial results. The insertion of a disc-shaped molybdenum electrode (probe), biased at up to +100V,…
It is known that 3D-ICs suffer from hot spot temperatures that can reach thousands of degrees, if they are not cooled to reasonable operating temperatures. The problem of hot spots is not limited to the high temperatures of the IC; thermal…
Recent X-ray observations by the space mission Chandra confirmed the astonishing evidence for a diffuse, hot, thermal plasma at a temperature of 9. $10^7$ K (8 keV) found by previous surveys to extend over a few hundred parsecs in the…
The structures for the TRI$\mu$P facility have been completed and commissioned. At the facility radioactive nuclides are produced to study fundamental interactions and symmetries. An important feature is the possibility to trap radioactive…
We have explored the thermodynamics of compressed magnetized plasmas in laboratory experiments and we call these studies "magnetothermodynamics". The experiments are carried out in the Swarthmore Spheromak eXperiment device. In this device,…
X-ray data of the Centaurus cluster, obtained with {\it XMM-Newton} for 45 ksec, were analyzed. Deprojected EPIC spectra from concentric thin shell regions were reproduced equally well by a single-phase plasma emission model, or by a…
Plasmonic nanomaterials offer a direct and effective approach to harnessing solar energy. Specifically, plasmonic semiconductors enable a highly efficient light-to-heat conversion process, outperforming noble metals in stability,…
Ion energy distributions have been determined at the rf-bias electrode in an inductively-coupled acetylene-argon plasma for various substrate bias voltages and frequencies under conditions suitable for film deposition. These are compared…
We simulate a coronal mass ejection (CME) using a three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) code that includes coronal heating, thermal conduction, and radiative cooling in the energy equation. The magnetic flux distribution at 1 R$_s$ is…
CeCoIn5 (Co115) thin films have been grown on Al2O3 (000l) substrates through the pulsed laser deposition (PLD). The films are grown mainly along the c-axis, with CeIn3 and In-related alloys. The rock-salt type grains are nucleated, where…
Plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) processing of EV 31 magnesium alloy has been carried out in fluoride containing electrolyte under bipolar pulse current regime. Unusual PEO cathodic micro-discharges have been observed and investigated.…
The material eroded from the surface of plasma facing components is redeposited partly close to high heat flux areas. At these locations, the deposit is heated by the plasma and the deposition pattern evolves depending on the operation…
We make a comparative study of hard x-ray emission from 15 $\mu$m methanol microdroplets and a plain slab target of similar atomic composition at similar laser intensities. The hard X-ray yield from droplet plasmas is $\simeq$ 35 times more…
