Electron drag force in EUV induced pulsed hydrogen plasmas

Depth-Independent Drag Force Induced by Stirring in Granular Media

Particle Generation in Pulsed Plasmas

A new pulsed coaxial plasma generator (PCPG) has been developed in order to allow for investigating particle generation in the quench of a propagating jet. The related process provides an extremely transient environment which is characterised by initially high energy and charge densities, steep temperature gradients and short particle residence times. The combination of high quench rates and hi...

Spatial and temporal variations of electron temperatures and densities from EUV-emitting lithium plasmas.

Planar slabs of pure Li were irradiated with 1.064 nm, 6 ns Nd:YAG laser pulses. Determination of plasma densities at both the earliest times of plasma formation and near the target surface was performed using Nomarski interferometry. The plasma parameters at later times were evaluated using optical emission spectroscopy. The space- and time-dependent electron densities and temperatures of the ...

Drag force in AdS/CFT

The AdS/CFT correspondence and a classical test string approximation are used to calculate the drag force on an external quark moving in a thermal plasma of N = 4 superYang-Mills theory. This computation is motivated by the phenomenon of jet-quenching in relativistic heavy ion collisions.

Electron–drag effects in coupled electron systems

The advancement of fabrication and lithography techniques of semiconductors have made it possible to study bi–layer systems made of two electronic layers separated by distances of several hundred Angstroms. In this situation the electrons in layer 1 are distinguishable from those in layer 2, and can communicate through the direct inter–layer Coulomb interaction. In particular, if a current is a...
