Cold Relat ivist ic Wavebreaking Threshold of Two-Dimens iona l P lasma Waves

چکیده
The two-dimensional wave-breaking of relativistic plasma waves driven by a ultrashort high-power lasers, is described within a framework of cold 2-D fluid theory. It is shown that the transverse nonlinearity of the plasma wave results in temporally increasing transverse plasma oscillation in the wake of the laser pulse, inevitably inducing wave-breaking below the 1-D threshold. A condition for wavebreaking is obtained and evaluated. A preformed density channel is found to partially cancel the effect and increase the length of wakefield that survives before wavebreaking

Advantages of a Transformational Grammar for Question Answering
A number of researchers in ar t i f ic ia l intel l igence, for example, Woods(1975, p.88 f f . ), have asserted that transformat ional grammars are not a satisfactory basis on which to construct natural language understanding systems, pr imari ly because of eff ic iency considerations. The evidence for such a claim is by no means strong, Pe t r i ck (1976) , and it can be argued that transfer ...
