Challenges of Relativistic Astrophysics
I discuss some of the most outstanding challenges in relativistic astrophysics in the subjects of: compact objects (Black Holes and Neutron Stars); dark sector (Dark Matter and Dark Energy); plasma astrophysics (Origin of Jets, Cosmic Rays and Magnetic ...

Field emission: calculations supporting a new methodology of comparing theory with experiment
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)

Plasma physics of extreme astrophysical environments [PDF]
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.

A Model for Nonthermal Particle Acceleration in Relativistic Magnetic Reconnection
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 ...

Neutrino orbital angular momentum in a plasma vortex
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

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.
