We propose a new method to search for hypothetical scalar particles that have feeble interactions with Standard-Model particles. In the presence of massive bodies, these interactions produce a non-zero Yukawa-type scalar-field magnitude.…
Particle tracking is a key to single-particle-level confocal microscopy observation of colloidal suspensions, emulsions, and granular matter. The conventional tracking method has not been able to provide accurate information on the size of…
Powders acquire a high electrostatic charge during transport and processing. Consequently, in the aftermath of dust explosions, electrostatic discharge is often suspected to be the ignition source. However, definite proof is usually lacking…
From various cosmological, astrophysical and terrestrial requirements, we derive conservative upper bounds on the present-day fraction of the mass of the Galactic dark matter (DM) halo in charged massive particles (CHAMPs). If dark matter…
In the experiments, the quantity measurd is the product of the charge and the magnetic field from which fractional charge is deduced. There is no objection to measuring the fractional charge as long as it is remembered that the product of…
Magnetic monopole is a well-motivated class of beyond-Standard-Model particles that could provide insights into the long-standing puzzle of the quantization of electric charge. These hypothetical particles are likely to be super heavy…
In this article, we study a type of a one dimensional percolation model whose basic features include a sequential dropping of particles on a substrate followed by their transport via a pushing mechanism (see [S. N. Majumdar and D. S. Dean,…
We have calculated the fractional charge of quasiparticles in a cluster of electrons. The 61 values have been calculated which are exactly the same as the measured values. In a previous eprint we have calculated 85 values which are the same…
Individual colloids often carry a charge as a result of the dissociation (or adsorption) of weakly-ionized surface groups. The magnitude depends on the precise chemical environment surrounding a particle, which in a concentrated dispersion…
The charge/mass distribution f(q/m) of nanodrops and ions electrosprayed in vacuum from mixtures of formamide (FM) and methylammonium formate (MAF) is studied by time of flight mass spectrometry at MAF/FM volumetric concentrations of 5%,…
The charge of fractionally charged quasiparticles, proposed by Laughlin to explain the fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE), was recently verified by measurements. Charge q=e/3 and e/5 (e is the electron charge), at filling factors nu=1/3…
In single particle imaging experiments, beams of individual nanoparticles are exposed to intense pulses of x-rays from free-electron lasers to record diffraction patterns of single, isolated molecules. The reconstruction for structure…
We have made the first observation of a charged particle beam by means of its electro-optical effect on the polarization of laser light in a birefringent crystal. The modulation of the laser light during the passage of a pulsed electron…
We propose a unified method for the large space-time scaling limit of \emph{linear} collisional kinetic equations in the whole space. The limit is of \emph{fractional} diffusion type for heavy tail equilibria with slow enough decay, and of…
Charge fluctuations provide a possible signature for the existence of the de-confined Quark Gluon Plasma phase (QGP). Being sensitive to the square of the charges, fluctuations in QGP, with fractionally charged partons, are significantly…
We propose a method that allows to place an upper limit on the dark matter elastic scattering cross section with nucleons which is independent of the velocity distribution. Our approach combines null results from direct detection…
A search for long-lived charged massive particles in CDF's Run1b data sample is presented. The search looks for highly ionizing tracks which would result from slowly moving massive particles. We search for strongly produced particles using…
The charge of quasiparticles in a fractional quantum Hall (FQH) liquid, tunneling through a partly reflecting constriction with transmission t, was determined via shot noise measurements. In the nu=1/3 FQH state, a charge smoothly evolving…
Fractional calculus is an effective tool in incorporating the effects of non-locality and memory into physical models. In this regard, successful applications exist rang- ing from signal processing to anomalous diffusion and quantum…
We present an accurate and efficient algorithm to calculate the electrostatic interaction of charged point particles with partially periodic boundary conditions that are confined along the nonperiodic direction by two metallic parallel…
