Photoconduction and photocontrolled collective effects in the Peierls conductor TaS
Light illumination of thin crystals of CDW conductor TaS is found to
result in dramatic changes of both linear () and nonlinear conduction. The
increase of is accompanied by suppression of the collective conduction,
growth of the threshold field , and appearance of the switching and
hysteretic behavior in the nonlinear conduction. The effects in the nonlinear
conduction are associated with increase of CDW elasticity due to illumination
that leads in particular to appearance of a relation
expected for the one-dimensional pinning.Comment: RevTeX4, 4 pages, 4 postscript figures. Revised manuscript, new

Liquid Nonlinear Oscillations in the U-Tube System
Dynamics of oscillation processes in a siphon U-tube is studied for the system of connected vessels filled with
homogeneous liquid. The equations and phase paths describing the motion of viscous and non-viscous liquids
are given, oscillation frequencies are considered. Oscillations are nonlinear in general case, but they turn into
linear by setting specific parameter values of the system. Phase portraits are obtained and their dependences
on parameters of the system are analyzedfor both linear and non-linear cases
Convective Term and Transversely Driven Charge-Density Waves
We derive the convective terms in the damping which determine the structure
of the moving charge-density wave (CDW), and study the effect of a current
flowing transverse to conducting chains on the CDW dynamics along the chains.
In contrast to a recent prediction we find that the effect is orders of
magnitude smaller, and that contributions from transverse currents of electron-
and hole-like quasiparticles to the force exerted on the CDW along the chains
act in the opposite directions. We discuss recent experimental verification of
the effect and demonstrate experimentally that geometry effects might mimic the
transverse current effect.Comment: RevTeX, 9 pages, 1 figure, accepted for publications in PR
