Coupling of Surface Plasmon Polariton in Al-Doped ZnO with Fabry-Pérot Resonance for Total Light Absorption

Description: This article presents finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulations on total light absorption (TLA) resulting from the coupling of a surface plasmon polariton (SPP) with Fabry-Pérot (F-P) resonance in a three-layer structure consisting of an AZO square lattice hole array, a spacer, and a layer of silver.

A Symmetric Approach Elucidates Multisensory Information Integration

Description: This article shows that the Borsuk-Ulam theorem applies also to multisensory integration: two environmental stimuli from different sensory modalities display similar features when mapped into cortical neurons.

Electrical Properties of Tin Selenide Under High-Pressure

Description: The article investigates the pressure-induced phase transitions in tin selenide (SnSe). using the first-principles density functional calculations. The experimental results in the nanostructured SnSe revealed a phase transition at 4 GPa whereas that in the well-crystallized samples showed at 10 GPa.

Ergodicity breaking and localization

Description: This article studies the joint action of the non-Poisson renewal events (NPR) yielding Continuous-time random walk (CTRW) with index α < 1 and two different generators of Hurst coefficient H ≠ 0.5, one generating fractional Brownian motion (FBM) and another scaled Brownian motion (SBM).

Antihydrogen Synthesis Via Magnetobound States of Protonium Within Proton-Positron-Antiproton Plasmas

Description: Article studies the possibility that antihydrogen can be synthesized via three body recombination involving magnetobound protonium through classical trajectory simulation. It has been previously reported that proton antiproton collisions can result in a correlated drift of the particles perpendicular to a magnetic field. While the two particles are in their correlated drift, they are referred to as a magnetobound protonium system. Possible three body recombination resulting in bound state anti… more

Effect of a finite antiproton mass on antihydrogen synthesis via magnetobound positronium within electron-positron-antiproton plasmas

Description: This article describes a study that was conducted to determine what would happen if a magnetobound positronium system encountered a finite-mass antiproton. The simulation incorporates a strong magnetic field (1 T) similar to that found within Penning traps. The simulation shows that with a finite-mass antiproton, the electron will be ejected from the system, and the positron is captured into a bound state with an antiproton thereby synthesizing antihydrogen.

Confinement of antiprotons in the electrostatic space charge of positrons in a model of the ALPHA antihydrogen trap

Description: This article details the equilibrium of a positron plasma in a model of the ALPHA apparatus that is computed using a finite-difference method. The positron plasma in the model extends to axial magnetic mirrors in absence of an octupole field. Formation of a three-dimensional electrostatic potential well is found to occur self-consistently. Well depths under various conditions are evaluated. Also, the equilibrium with an antiproton plasma confined in the potential well is computed.
