Constraining properties of neutron stars with heavy-ion reactions in terrestrial laboratories

, 2007
Heavy-ion reactions provide a unique means to investigate the equation of state (EOS) of neutron-rich nuclear matter, especially the density dependence of the nuclear symmetry energy $E_{sym}(\rho)$.

Electron Density Structure Measurements With Scattered Intense Laser Beam

Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Short‐pulse intense lasers have the potential to model extreme astrophysical environments in laboratories. Although there are diagnostics for energetic electrons and ions resulting from laser‐plasma interactions, the diagnostics to measure velocity distribution functions at the interaction region of the laser and plasma are limited.

Tuning Ultra‐Narrow Direct Bandgap in α‐Sn Nanocrystals: A CMOS‐Compatible Approach for THz Applications

Small, EarlyView.
α‐Sn NPs of different sizes are stabilized on Si wafer by means of a CMOS‐compatible process employing microwave irradiation. Unprecedented tunability of the ultranarrow bandgap energy of α‐Sn between 64 and 137 meV (15–35 THz) due to quantum confinement is demonstrated.
