Very Light Jets (VLJs) constitute a class of three to eight passenger turbofan-powered aircraft that will enter service in 2006 and will need to be integrated into the National Airspace System. An aircraft performance analysis showed similarities between the predicted performance and capability of Very Light Jets and the performance of existing Light Jets. Based on this an analysis of operating...

In atmospheric pressure capacitively coupled microplasma jets, Voltage Waveform Tailoring (VWT) was demonstrated to provide ultimate control of the Electron Energy Distribution Function (EEDF), which allows enhance and adjust generation selected neutral species by controlling electron power absorption dynamics. However, at fundamental level, physical origin these effects VWT remained unclear. T...

A catalogue of extra-galactic jets is very useful both in observational and theoretical studies of active galaxies. With the use of new powerful radio instruments, the detailed structures of very compact or weak radio sources are investigated observationally and many new radio jets are detected. In this paper, we give a list of 661 radio sources with detected radio jets known to us prior to the...

We study multiple scatterings of jets on constituents of quark gluon plasma and introduce energy–energy correlations to quantify their effects. The effects from a longitudinally expanding plasma on medium as well as high energy jets are found to be significant at both RHIC and LHC energies. Because jets escape from the plasma long before the completion of mixed phase, these effects are free fro...

The cross section for the inclusive production of W bosons in association with jets in pp̄ collisions at √ s = 1.96 TeV using the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF II) is presented. The measurement is based on an integrated luminosity of 320 pb, and includes events with up to 4 or more jets. In each jet multiplicity sample the differential and cumulative cross sections with respect to the trans...

The stability problem of the rotation induced electrostatic wave in extragalactic jets is presented. Solving a set of equations describing dynamics of a relativistic plasma flow of AGN jets, the instability rate has been derived and estimated for typical values of extragalactic jets. The growth rate was analyzed versus the wave length and inclination angle and it has been found that the instabi...

This miniconference brought together observers of astrophysical jets, analytic and numerical modelers of both astrophysical jets and spheromaks, and laboratory experimentalists. The purpose of the miniconference was to encourage interaction between these diverse groups and also expose the plasma physics community to the interesting plasma issues associated with astrophysical jets. The miniconfe...

I review the current knowledge of high-energy emission from extragalctic jets. First I discuss γ-ray emission from blazars, which provides us numerous precious information on the innermost portions of the relativistic jets. I describe the constraints on the dynamics of the jet from the subpc to the pc scale provided by recent VLBI studies of TeV sources, together with the modelling of the emiss...

Long-lived, stable jets are observed in a wide variety of systems, from protostars, through Galactic compact objects to active galactic nuclei (AGN). Magnetic fields play a central role in launching, accelerating, and collimating the jets through various media. The termination of jets in molecular clouds or the interstellar medium deposits enormous amounts of mechanical energy and momentum, and...

This work investigates the flow disturbance generated by an ultrasonically driven gas bubble confined in a narrow gap over one acoustic cycle. Here, we provide more accurate representation of ultrasonic cleaning implementing volume-of-fluid model OpenFOAM that simulates ultrasound as sinusoidally time-varying pressure boundary condition. A modified Rayleigh–Plesset equation is solved to select ...
