Neutral atoms play important roles in non-fully-ionized plasmas. In helicon sources, neutral pumping and neutral damping of waves are poorly understood. Measurement of the spatial distribution of neutral atoms is possible with spectroscopic diagnostics such as laser-induced fluorescence LIF and passive emission spectroscopy. However, these measurements typically apply to an excited neutral atom...

Abstract Simulations of the global climate system at storm-resolving resolutions 2 km are now becoming feasible and show promising realism in clouds precipitation. However, shortcomings their representation microscale processes, like interaction cloud droplets ice crystals with radiation, can still restrict utility. Here, we illustrate how changes to microphysics scheme dramatically alter both ...

We present a non-LTE Monte-Carlo radiative transfer code with clump and interclump media complementary to the one presented by Park et al. (1996) and derived from the original homogeneous model by Bernes (1979). The main difference is that instead of representing a very few real clumps treated individually, we consider an arbitrary large number of clumps, which we treat statistically with only ...

We present a new method to retrieve molecular abundances and temperature profiles from exoplanet atmosphere photometry and spectroscopy. We run millions of one-dimensional (1D) atmosphere models in order to cover the large range of allowed parameter space. In order to run such a large number of models, we have developed a parametric pressure–temperature (P–T) profile coupled with line-by-line r...

Radiating a photon from the initial state provides a useful tool for studying a range of low energy physics using a high-energy ee accelerator. Accurate results require careful calculation of the first order virtual photon corrections. We compare exact results for initial state radiative corrections, finding agreement to an order of 10 or better as a fraction of the Born cross-section for most ...

Context. Understanding the processes that could lead to an enrichment of molecules in 15N atoms is of particular interest because this may shed light on the relatively strong variations observed in the 14N/15N ratio in various solar system environments. Aims. The sample of molecular clouds where 14N/15N ratios have been measured currently is small and has to be enlarged to allow statistically s...

The 89 and 150 GHz channels operated in window are sensitive to precipitation and humidity. The 183 GHz humidity-sensitive channels and 118 GHz temperature-sensitive channels of the Microwave Humidity and Temperature Sounder (MWHTS) on the Chinese Feng Yun 3C MWHTS (FY-3C MWHTS) polar-orbit meteorological satellite responds in part to precipitation. Combining 118 and 183 GHz channels, the paper...
