Wave dispersion in a gyrotropic relativistic pulsar plasma is discussed. A pulsar plasma in general contains electrons, positrons, and possibly ions. Although electron-positron pairs are dominant in number density, charge neutrality is generally not satisfied and the gyrotropic terms need to be considered. These gyrotropic terms can lead to elliptical polarization that may be relevant for the o...

We present an accurate description of the conjugate pair angle-angular momentum in terms of the exponential of the angle instead of the angle itself, which leads to dispersion as a natural measure of resolution. Intelligent states minimizing the uncertainty product under the constraint of a given uncertainty in angle or in angular momentum turn out to be given by Mathieu wave functions. We disc...

We characterize spatial dispersion in longitudinally invariant drawn metamaterials with a magnetic response at terahertz frequencies, whereby a change in the angle of the incident field produces a shift in the resonant frequency. We present a simple analytical model to predict this shift. We also demonstrate that the spatial dispersion is eliminated by breaking the longitudinal invariance using...

Determination of The transmittance values measured in IR reflectionabsorption (RA) spectra were used to determine the optical constants of dielectric films laid on solid substrates. In order to obtain the optical constants of polystyrene films laid on steel we used dispersion analysis. In this case, the optical constants are obtained from IR spectrum recorded at a single incidence angle. The us...

Current experiments of processing glass with ultra-short laser pulses (< 1 ps) lead to scan angle depending processing results. This scan angle depending effect is examined by simulations of a common focusing lens for laser scanners. Due to dispersion, focusing lenses may cause pulse deformations and increase the pulse duration in the focal region. If the field angle of the incoming laser beam ...

The paper presents the electromagnetic (EM) wave propagation in cylindrical optical fibers with helical windings under slowand fast-wave considerations. Field components are deduced for both the cases, and also, the dispersion relations are obtained by applying the boundary conditions, as modified by the presence of conducting helical windings. Two special cases are considered corresponding to ...

The dispersion of the Gd (5d6s)-valence bands has been investigated by means of spin- and angle-resolved photoemission. The spin analysis of various spectral features shows that their weak dispersion and unusual broadening is due to the photoelectron lifetime rather than to correlation induced band narrowing as previously proposed. These results resolve a long-standing discrepancy between theor...

Evidence for temperature-dependent electron band dispersion in a pentacene thin film polymorph on graphite is provided by angle- and energy-dependent ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy. The bands derived from the highest occupied molecular orbital exhibit dispersion of approximately 190 meV at room temperature, and approximately 240 meV at 120 K. Intermolecular electronic coupling in pentac...

We present a three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) algorithm to minimize the numerical dispersion error at preassigned angles. Filtering schemes are used to further optimize its frequency response for broad-band simulations. A stability analysis of the resulting FDTD algorithm is also provided. Numerical results show that the dispersion error around any preassigned angle can be...
