Witness electron beam injection using an active plasma lens for a proton beam-driven plasma wakefield accelerator [PDF]
An active plasma lens focuses the beam in both the horizontal and vertical planes simultaneously using a magnetic field generated by a discharge current through the plasma. A beam size of 5--10 $\mu$m can be achieved within a short distance using a focusing gradient on the order of 100 T/m.

The early evolution of solar flaring plasma loops [PDF]
Plasma loops are the elementary structures of solar flaring active regions which dominate the whole processes of flaring eruptions. The standard flare models are well explained the evolution and eruption after magnetic reconnection around the hot cusp-structure above the top of plasma loops, however, the early evolution of the plasma loops before the ...

Plasma aldosterone and renin activity. [PDF]
Eight infants had paired measurements of plasma aldosterone and plasma renin activity while being treated for congestive heart failure. There is parallelism with aldosterone and renin activity in the presence of a hyperactive renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system.
