Chaos generated by the interaction between charged particles and electrostatic plasma waves has been observed in a linear magnetized plasma. The macroscopic wave properties, the kinetic ion dielectric response, and the microscopic heating mechanisms have been investigat...

The problem of how single "central" spins interact with a nuclear spin bath is essential for understanding decoherence and relaxation in many quantum systems, yet is highly nontrivial owing to the many-body couplings involved. Different models yield widely varying times...

We investigate the beam-beam interaction in a synchrotron collider, specifically studying slow particle diffusion in phase space away from tune resonances. Using the tune and tune shift of contemporary large hadron colliders as reference parameters, our computation show...

The linear stability analysis of unsteady ablation fronts, is carried out for a semi-infinite uniform medium. For a laser accelerated target, it is shown that a properly selected modulation of the laser intensity can lead to the dynamic stabilization or growth-rate redu...

A measurement is reported of the jet mass distribution in hadronic decays of boosted top quarks produced in pp collisions at root s = 13 TeV. The data were collected with the CMS detector at the LHC and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb(-1). The measurem...

We present a detailed study of fluctuations in a laboratory current sheet undergoing magnetic reconnection. The measurements reveal the presence of lower-hybrid-frequency range fluctuations on the edge of current sheets produced in the Magnetic Reconnection Experiment (...

High-resolution spectra of Fe XXV have been observed from Princeton Large Torus tokamak discharges and are used for a detailed comparison with theoretical predictions of Bely-Dubau et al. for the (1s/sup 2/nl-1s2pnl, n> or =3) dielectronic satellites at 1.85 A. The theo...
