Relativistic magnetohydrodynamics (RMHD) provides an extremely useful description of the low-energy long-wavelength phenomena in a variety physical systems from quark-gluon plasma heavy-ion collisions to matters supernovas, compact stars, and early universe. We review recent theoretical progresses RMHD, such as formulation RMHD perspective magnetic flux conservation using entropy-current analys...

The physics of the unstable E-region plasma is based on the modified two stream, or Farley-Buneman, and the gradient drift instabilities. The theory combines both mechanisms into a single dispersion relation which applies for the directly generated short-scale plasma waves, known as type 1 irregularities. In the absence of a plasma gradient it is only the two stream mechanism acting which favor...

The authors develop a theory of photodetection in double-gated bilayer graphene (BLG) field-effect transistor (FET), following the Dyakonov-Shur scheme based on nonlinear mixing plasma waves. A BLG channel displays peculiar effect: band gap depends intensity wave, which makes photoresponse dependent FET electrostatics. work here bridges microscopic features electronic dispersion two-dimensional...

Successive stages of direct laser acceleration driven by two pulses in an applied magnetic field enable volumetric generation bulk-relativistic, persistently hot plasma at gas-jet-accessible and optically diagnosable density. Theory kinetic simulations demonstrate robustness to experimentally relevant parameters indicate that this approach is capable accessing a relativistically thermal regime ...

Josephson plasma frequency is computed within the interlayer tunneling theory and compared against the experimental results in Tl2Ba2CuOy and La2−xSrxCuO4. It is shown that the theoretical estimates are fully consistent with the recent experiments. Typeset using REVTEX 1 In the Josephson effect [1], the quantum mechanical phases of two superconductors are coupled by the tunneling of the Cooper ...
