Infrared attosecond field transients and UV to IR few-femtosecond pulses generated by high-energy soliton self-compression

, 2020
Infrared femtosecond laser pulses are important tools both in strong-field physics, driving X-ray high-harmonic generation, and as the basis for widely tuneable, if inefficient, ultrafast sources in the visible and ultraviolet.

A Tidal Flare Candidate in Abell 1795 [PDF]

, 2013
As part of our ongoing archival X-ray survey of galaxy clusters for tidal flares, we present evidence of an X-ray transient source within 1 arcmin of the core of Abell 1795. The extreme variability (a factor of nearly 50), luminosity (> 2 x 10^42 erg s^{-

Disentangling jet and disc emission from the 2005 outburst of XTE J1118+480 [PDF]

, 2010
The black hole X-ray transient, XTE J1118+480, has now twice been observed in outburst - 2000 and 2005 - and on both occasions remained in the low/hard X-ray spectral state. Here we present radio, infrared, optical, soft X-ray and hard X-ray observations

A Plasma Instability Theory of Gamma-Ray Burst Emission [PDF]

, 1999
A new theory for gamma-ray burst radiation is presented. In this theory, magnetic fields and relativistic electrons are created through plasma processes arising as a relativistic shell passes through the interstellar medium.
