Measurements of Auroral Plasma Properties Using Low‐Cost, Mobile, Ground‐Based Detectors

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 12, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract An expedition to Fairbanks, AK, was undertaken to study the aurora during the peak of solar cycle 25. Low‐cost diagnostics were developed to enable ground‐based measurements of ionospheric plasma parameters and auroral phenomena, namely a compact spectrometer and a high‐resolution all‐sky camera with 2‐axis magnetometer. Observations were made

Fast and Invertible Simplicial Approximation of Magnetic‐Following Interpolation for Visualizing Fusion Plasma Simulation Data

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, Volume 44, Issue 3, June 2025.
Abstract We introduce a fast and invertible approximation for fusion plasma simulation data represented as 2D planar meshes with connectivities approximating magnetic field lines along the toroidal dimension in deformed 3D toroidal spaces. Scientific variables (e.g., density and temperature) in these fusion data are interpolated following a complex ...

Self‐Organized Growth of Catalyst‐Free Single Crystal WnO3n‐2 (n = 25) Nanowire Bundles on Si (111) via Selective He+ Ion Irradiation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 12, Issue 10, May 19, 2025.
A novel and efficient method is explored to synthesize 1D single‐crystal sub‐stoichiometric WnO3n‐2 (n = 25) nanowire bundles. The approach utilizes selective low‐energy He+ ion irradiation (27 eV) on Mo‐Ni doped WOx surface, achieving efficient catalyst‐free self‐organized growth of high aspect ratio nanowires at the temperature of 700 °C.

A New Approach Toward Extreme Thermal Stability of Femtosecond Laser Induced Modifications in Glasses

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, Volume 19, Issue 3, February 5, 2025.
Femtosecond laser irradiation inside Al2O3‐SiO2 and ZrO2‐Al2O3‐SiO2 glasses can induce polarization‐controlled birefringent nanostructures, along with local precipitation of refractory nanocrystals like tetragonal ZrO2 or mullite. These structures yield a persisting positive index contrast with extraordinary thermal stability (>1600 °C), opening a ...

Spectroscopic Measurement of Hydrogen Atom Density in a Plasma Produced with 28 GHz ECH in QUEST

open access: yesAtoms, 2020
The spatial distribution of the hydrogen atom density was evaluated in a spherical tokamak (ST) plasma sustained only with 28 GHz electron cyclotron heating (ECH). The radially resolved Hδ emissivity was measured using multiple viewing chord spectroscopy

Ion‐Mediated Tearing and Kink Instabilities in the Earth's Magnetosphere: Hybrid‐Vlasov Simulations

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 130, Issue 1, January 2025.
Abstract We explore the three‐dimensional structure of ion‐kinetic instabilities in a thin current layer using a hybrid‐Vlasov simulation of the Earth's magnetosphere. The simulation shows the simultaneous growth of tearing and kinking instabilities, which develop in the Sun‐Earth and dawn‐dusk directions, respectively, within the magnetotail current ...
