In this paper, we present a framework for assessing the effect of non-stationary Gaussian noise and radio frequency interference (RFI) on the signal to noise ratio, the number of false positives detected per true positive and the sensitivity of standard pulsar search pipelines. The results highlight the necessity to develop algorithms that are able to identify and remove non-stationary variatio...

We discuss properties of the expected radio emission from Soft Gamma-ray Repeaters (SGRs) during their bursting activity in the framework of the model of Thompson, Lyutikov and Kulkarni (2002), in which the high energy emission is powered by the dissipation of super-strong magnetic fields in the magnetospheres through reconnection-type events. Drawing on analogies with Solar flares we predict t...

We present results of the simulation of the intensity distribution of radio pulses from the Moon due to interaction of EeV neutrinos with lunar regolith. The radiation mechanism is of coherent Ĉerenkov radiation of the negative charge excess in the shower, known as Askar’yan effect. Several realistic observational setups with ground radio telescopes are considered. Effective detector volume is ...

The extremely high brightness temperature of fast radio bursts (FRBs) requires that their emission mechanism must be "coherent", either through concerted particle by bunches or an exponential growth a plasma wave mode radiation amplitude via certain maser mechanisms. bunching has been mostly discussed within the context curvature cyclotron/synchrotron radiation. Here we propose family model inv...

The possibility of producing entangled superpositions of strong coherent states is discussed. A recent proposal by Howell and Yeazell (2000 Phys. Rev. A 62 012102) of a device that entangles two strong coherent states is modified. It is shown that the modified scheme can generate non-classical states that violate Bell inequality. Moreover, a detailed analysis of the effect of losses and decoher...
