Chaos in black holes surrounded by gravitational waves
The occurrence of chaos for test particles moving around Schwarzschild black
holes perturbed by a special class of gravitational waves is studied in the
context of the Melnikov method. The explicit integration of the equations of
motion for the homoclinic orbit is used to reduce the application of this
method to the study of simple graphics.Comment: 15 pages, LaTex
Chaos and Rotating Black Holes with Halos
The occurrence of chaos for test particles moving around a slowly rotating
black hole with a dipolar halo is studied using Poincar\'e sections. We find a
novel effect, particles with angular momentum opposite to the black hole
rotation have larger chaotic regions in phase space than particles initially
moving in the same direction.Comment: 9 pages, 4 Postscript figures. Phys. Rev. D, in pres
The ion motion in self-modulated plasma wakefield accelerators
The effects of plasma ion motion in self-modulated plasma based accelerators
is examined. An analytical model describing ion motion in the narrow beam limit
is developed, and confirmed through multi-dimensional particle-in-cell
simulations. It is shown that the ion motion can lead to the early saturation
of the self-modulation instability, and to the suppression of the accelerating
gradients. This can reduce the total energy that can be transformed into
kinetic energy of accelerated particles. For the parameters of future
proton-driven plasma accelerator experiments, the ion dynamics can have a
strong impact. Possible methods to mitigate the effects of the ion motion in
future experiments are demonstrated.Comment: 11 pages, 3 figures, accepted for publication in Phys. Rev. Let
Magnetic control of particle-injection in plasma based accelerators
The use of an external transverse magnetic field to trigger and to control
electron self-injection in laser- and particle-beam driven wakefield
accelerators is examined analytically and through full-scale particle-in-cell
simulations. A magnetic field can relax the injection threshold and can be used
to control main output beam features such as charge, energy, and transverse
dynamics in the ion channel associated with the plasma blowout. It is shown
that this mechanism could be studied using state-of-the-art magnetic fields in
next generation plasma accelerator experiments.Comment: 10 pages, 3 figure
Chromosome instability in intergeneric hybrids of Triticum aestivum;× tritordeum (amphiploid Hordeum chilense×Triticum turgidum) with high dosage of Ph1 gene of wheat
In somatic cells of intergencric hybrids Truicum uestirum (mono-isosomic 5BL, 2n=6x=4f)x trinordum 12n = 6x = 42, amphiploid Hordeum clulense x Triticum turgidnm)it was observed that high dosage of the long arm of 5B induced chromosome instability in hybrids 2n=42, in hybrids 2n=41 with only one dose of 5BL from the normal 5B genome of the teteaploed wheat, all cells have consistently 2n=41 chromosomes and no rmal 5B genome of the tetraploid wheat all cells have consistently 2n=41 plant differenttation in plants with 2n=42 which carry three doses of 5BL (one isochromosome 5BL and one 5B chromosome)most of the metaphase cells had 2n=42 chromosomes. However other cells in a reasonable frequency varying from 19% to 40% carried from 2n=6 to 2n=44. and showed marked desturbances in all phases of the cell cycle leading to final failure in plant development. It is suggested that the Ph1 geng of wheat. Located on 5BL regulates chromosome stability in the somatic cells of those hybrids
Beam loading in the nonlinear regime of plasma-based acceleration
A theory that describes how to load negative charge into a nonlinear,
three-dimensional plasma wakefield is presented. In this regime, a laser or an
electron beam blows out the plasma electrons and creates a nearly spherical ion
channel, which is modified by the presence of the beam load. Analytical
solutions for the fields and the shape of the ion channel are derived. It is
shown that very high beam-loading efficiency can be achieved, while the energy
spread of the bunch is conserved. The theoretical results are verified with the
Particle-In-Cell code OSIRIS.Comment: 5 pages, 2 figures, to appear in Physical Review Letter
