Abstract Interplanetary shock waves are observed frequently in turbulent solar wind. They naturally enhance the temperature/entropy of plasma through which they propagate. Moreover, many studies have shown that also act as an amplifier fluctuations incident on front. Solar wind can be well described superposition quasi-2D and slab components, former being energetically dominant. In this paper, ...

Resonant modes of multi-layer structures which contain the regions of negative epsilon material (such as a metal in the visible range) are analyzed. Existence of two separate classes of resonant modes is demonstrated. One is related to the excitation of the surface mode at the interface of the regions with opposite signs of the dielectric constant and involve energy transport by evanescent mode...

Cooperation in clouds provides a promising technique for 5G wireless networks, supporting higher data rates. Security of data transmission over wireless clouds could put constraints on devices; whether to cooperate or not. Therefore, our aim is to provide analytical framework for the security on the physical layer of such setup and to define the constraints embodied with cooperation in small si...

In this paper we extend our theoretical treatment of the extraordinary optical transmission through hole arrays to the case of circular holes and beyond the subwavelength limit. Universal curves for the optical transmission in different regimes of the geometrical parameters defining the array are presented. Finally, we further develop the statement by showing that extraordinary transmission phe...

We present a detailed description of the role of surface modes in photonic band-gap fibers (PBGFs). A model is developed that connects the experimental observations of high losses in the middle of the transmission spectrum to the presence of surface modes supported at the core-cladding interface. Furthermore, a new PBGF design is proposed that avoids these surface modes and produces single-mode...

We propose a mode multiplexer based on volume holograms to realize a simple and efficient mode-division-multiplexed transmission system that supports a large number of modes. Selective multiexcitation of three spatial modes into a conventional multimode fiber is experimentally demonstrated. This device could potentially multiplex 10 or more modes. Future perspectives of the mode multiplexer for...
