    Magnetic Field of Relativistic Nonlinear Plasma Wave

    Get PDF
    Longitudinal and transverse behavior of magnetic field of relativistic nonlinear three-dimensional plasma wave is investigated. It is shown that the magnetic field of the wave is different from zero and performs higher frequency oscillations compared to the plasma electron frequency. An increase in the nonlinearity leads to strengthening of magnetic field. The oscillations of magnetic field in transverse direction arise, that caused by the phase front curving of nonlinear plasma wave. The numerical results well conform with predictions of the analytical consideration of weakly-nonlinear case.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figure

    Excitation of nonlinear two-dimensional wake waves in radially-nonuniform plasma

    Full text link
    It is shown that an undesirable curvature of the wave front of two-dimensional nonlinear wake wave excited in uniform plasma by a relativistic charged bunch or laser pulse may be compensated by radial change of the equilibrium plasma density.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figure

    Elliptic flow in proton-proton collisions at 7 TeV

    Full text link
    The angular correlations measured in proton-proton collisions at 7 TeV are decomposed into contributions from back to back emission and elliptic flow. Modeling the dominant term in the correlation functions as a momentum conservation effect or as an effect of the initial transverse velocity of the source, the remaining elliptic flow component can be estimated. The elliptic flow coefficient extracted from the CMS Collaboration data is 0.04-0.08. No additional small-angle, ridge-like correlations are needed to explain the experimental data

    Derived Representation Schemes And Non-Commutative Geometry

    Full text link
    After surveying relevant literature (on representation schemes, homotopical algebra, and non-commutative algebraic geometry), we provide a simple algebraic construction of relative derived representation schemes and prove that it constitutes a derived functor in the sense of Quillen. Using this construction, we introduce a derived Kontsevich-Rosenberg principle. In particular, we construct a (non-abelian) derived functor of a functor introduced by Van den Bergh that offers one (particularly significant) realization of the principle. We also prove a theorem allowing one to finitely present derived representation schemes of an associative algebra whenever one has an explicit finite presentation for an almost free resolution of that algebra; using this theorem, we calculate several examples (including some computer calculations of homology)

    Polynomial Realization of sâ„“q(2)s\ell_q(2) and Fusion Rules at Exceptional Values of qq

    Full text link
    Representations of the sâ„“q(2)s\ell_q(2) algebra are constructed in the space of polynomials of real (complex) variable for qN=1q^N=1. The spin addition rule based on eigenvalues of Casimir operator is illustrated on few simplest cases and conjecture for general case is formulated

    Planck's confirmation of the M31 disk and halo rotation

    Full text link
    Planck's data acquired during the first 15.4 months of observations towards both the disk and halo of the M31 galaxy are analyzed. We confirm the existence of a temperature asymmetry, previously detected by using the 7-year WMAP data, along the direction of the M31 rotation, therefore indicative of a Doppler-induced effect. The asymmetry extends up to about 10 degrees (about 130 kpc) from the M31 center. We also investigate the recent issue raised in Rubin and Loeb (2014) about the kinetic Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect from the diffuse hot gas in the Local Group, predicted to generate a hot spot of a few degrees size in the CMB maps in the direction of M31, where the free electron optical depth gets the maximum value. We also consider the issue whether in the opposite direction with respect to the M31 galaxy the same effect induces a minimum in temperature in the Planck's maps of the sky. We find that the Planck's data at 100 GHz show an effect even larger than that expected.Comment: 4 pages, 1 table, 2 figures, in press as a Letter in A&
