Tracing the Heliospheric Magnetic Field via Anisotropic Radio-Wave Scattering [PDF]
Astrophysical radio sources are embedded in turbulent magnetised environments. In the 1 MHz sky, solar radio bursts are the brightest sources, produced by electrons travelling along magnetic field lines from the Sun through the heliosphere. We demonstrate that the magnetic field not only guides the emitting electrons, but also directs radio waves via ...

The Twisting of Radio Waves in a Randomly Inhomogeneous Plasma [PDF]
Polarization of electromagnetic waves carries a large amount of information about their astrophysical emitters and the media they passed through, and hence is crucial in various aspects of astronomy. Here we demonstrate an important but long-overlooked depolarization mechanism in astrophysics: when the polarization vector of light travels along a non ...

Atmospheric drag effects on modelled low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites during the July 2000 Bastille Day event in contrast to an interval of geomagnetically quiet conditions [PDF]
In this work, we simulated the atmospheric drag effect on two model SmallSats (small satellites) in low Earth orbit (LEO) with different ballistic coefficients during 1-month intervals of solar–geomagnetic quiet and perturbed conditions. The goal of this

Tunable triple-band millimeter-wave absorbing metasurface based on nematic liquid crystal
We propose and design a tunable triple-band millimeter-wave absorbing metasurface based on nematic liquid crystal (NLC). Numerical results based on both effective circuit model and full-wave simulations verify the triple-band absorption property.

3D complex envelope leapfrog ADI‐FDTD algorithm
This paper presents a 3D complex envelope leapfrog alternating‐direction‐implicit finite‐difference time‐domain method. Compared with the previous work, the proposed method costs less computation runtime and memory while maintaining similar accuracy. The
