Plasma physics of extreme astrophysical environments [PDF]
Reports on Progress in Physics, 2014 Certain classes of astrophysical objects, namely magnetars and central engines of supernovae and gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), are characterized by extreme physical conditions not encountered elsewhere in the Universe. In particular, they possess magnetic fields that exceed the critical quantum field of 44 teragauss.

Neutrino orbital angular momentum in a plasma vortex
, 2008 It is shown that an electron-neutrino beam, propagating in a background plasma, can be decomposed into orbital momentum (OAM) states, similar to the OAM photon states. Coupling between different OAM neutrino states, in the presence of a plasma vortex, is

Field emission: calculations supporting a new methodology of comparing theory with experiment
Royal Society Open Science, 2022 This paper provides a demonstration-of-concept of a new methodology for comparing field electron emission (FE) theory and experiment. It uses the parameter κ in the mathematical equation Im = CVmκ exp[–B/Vm] (where B and C are weakly varying or constants)

ChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.The transformation of CO2 into chemical building blocks is essential for a net‐zero energy future. Plasma‐chemical processing offers promising potential to achieve this. Here, we explore a temperature‐dependent plasma‐chemical reaction mechanism, revealing a shift from electron‐driven to thermal‐driven CO2 conversion regimes.

A Model for Nonthermal Particle Acceleration in Relativistic Magnetic Reconnection
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 The past decade has seen an outstanding development of nonthermal particle acceleration in magnetic reconnection in magnetically dominated systems, with clear signatures of power-law energy distributions as a common outcome of first-principles kinetic ...

Azimuthal anisotropy of jet quenching at LHC [PDF]
, 2001 We analyze the azimuthal anisotropy of jet spectra due to energy loss of hard partons in quark-gluon plasma, created initially in nuclear overlap zone in collisions with non-zero impact parameter.

Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Warm dense matter (WDM) is a complex state, where quantum effects, thermal excitations, and strong interparticle correlations coexist. Understanding its microscopic composition and medium‐induced modifications of atomic and molecular properties is essential for planetary modeling, fusion research, and high‐energy‐density experiments.
