An expression for the radiation force from a cw-laser on a fluidfluid interface is derived that is able to model the giant deformations observed in modern experiments when the fluid system is close to the critical point implying that the surface tension is very small. The core of our argument is that the system is modelled as a step-index optical fiber. Then, observing that the dominant HE11 mo...

Reproducibility and comparability of photocatalytic experiments are still challenging, owing to the large number experimental parameters their comprehensive documentation. To overcome this limitation, a modular, adaptable, extensible photoreactor platform is reported, which enables under well-characterized, reproducible conditions. Comparability ensured by photonic characterization with chemica...

Finding the suitable solution to optimization problems is a fundamental challenge in various sciences. Optimization algorithms are one of effective stochastic methods solving problems. In this paper, new algorithm called Search Step Adjustment Based Algorithm (SSABA) presented provide quasi-optimal solutions initial iterations algorithm, step index set highest value for comprehensive search spa...
