A modified version of the plasma beat-wave accelerator scheme is proposed, based on autoresonant phase locking of the Langmuir wave to the slowly chirped beat frequency of the driving lasers by passage through resonance. Peak electric fields above standard detuning limits seem readily attainable, and the plasma wave excitation is robust to large variations in plasma density or chirp rate. This ...

Based on the numerical solutions of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation within the single-active-electron approximation, we propose a method for observing instantaneous atomic level shifts in an oscillating strong infrared (IR) field with sub-IR-cycle time resolution, by using a single tunable attosecond (SA) pulse to probe excited states of the perturbed atom. The ionization probability in...

introduction: it is important that biological and health effects from the induction of currents and fields in the body by extremely low frequency (elf) fields are fully explored to determine the effects produced at the molecular, cellular and organ levels. the objective of this study was to evaluate the intensity of elf electromagnetic fields and its probable relationship with hematological cha...

Abstract Using a 11.4 GHz, 50-MW, <1 μs, pulsed power source and a TE013-like mode copper cavity, we have been measuring critical magnetic fields of superconductors for accelerator cavity applications. This device can eliminate both thermal and field emission effects due to a short pulse and no electric field at the sample surface. A model of the system is presented in this paper along with a d...

Abstract – In this paper, the effect of applied electric field on the damage due to partial discharges activity into the surroundings dielectrics of a narrow channel encapsulated within the volume of a dielectric material is evaluated using a kinetic model based on Particle in Cell - Monte Carlo Collision (PIC-MCC) model. After application of an electric field across a dielectric material which...

Electric discharge drill machine (EDDM) is a spark erosion process to produce micro-holes in conductive materials. This process is widely used in aerospace, medical, dental and automobile industries. As for the performance evaluation of the electric discharge drilling machine, it is very necessary to study the process parameters of machine tool. In this research paper, a brass rod 2 mm diameter...

A propagation of pulse generated by an electric dipole is studied. A general formula for the electric field, which is uniformly valid for large distance and time, is presented. Fourier transform, stationary phase and simple contour integration methods are applied. 1. CURRENT PULSE AND FOURIER TRANSFORM Electric dipole is excited by a current I(t) = I0f(t) where f(t) is a pulse. The Fourier tran...

Traditional macro and micro-electroporation devices utilize facing electrodes, which generate electric fields inversely proportional to their separation distance. Although the separation distances in micro-electroporation devices are significantly smaller than those in macro-electroporation devices, they are limited by cell size. Because of this, significant potential differences are required t...

Electrophoretic deposition of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) using alternating current electric fields (0.01-1000 Hz) is reported. Pure acetone was used as suspending medium. Two parallel gold electrodes were used as depositing substrate. The effect of depositing parameters such as frequency and three waveforms (sinusoidal, rectangular and triangular) on deposit yield was investigated. According to ou...

We have studied the orientation of neurite growth in the culture of embryonic Xenopus neurons in response to three types of extracellular electric fields: spatially uniform pulsed fields, focally applied steady (DC) fields, and focally applied pulsed fields. Under uniform pulsed fields, neurites showed a preferential orientation toward the cathode pole of the field in a manner similar to that p...
