Dual (or sometimes multiple) flux tubes (DFTs) have been observed in the core of sawtoothing KSTAR tokamak plasmas with electron cyclotron resonance heating. The time evolution of the flux tubes visualized by a 2D electron cyclotron emission imaging diagnostic typically consists of four distinctive phases: (1) growth of one flux tube out of multiple small flux tubes during the initial buildup p...

Botnets are one of the most serious threats to internet security. A botnet is a network of computers on internet which are under the influence of a malware code, oblivious to the owner of that computer and sends out transmissions (virus or spam) to other computers on internet. Botnet can be utilized for DoS attacks, phishing, spamming and many other fraudulent activities. Therefore, it is impor...

Examples of conformal dynamo maps have been presented earlier [Phys Plasmas 14(2007)] where fast dynamos in twisted magnetic flux tubes in Riemannian manifolds were obtained. This paper shows that conformal maps, under the Floquet condition, leads to coincidence between exponential stretching or Lyapunov exponent, conformal factor of fast dynamos. Unfolding conformal dynamo maps can be obtained...

The dynamic characteristics of the ions emitted from ultrashort laser interaction with materials were studied. A series of successive experiments were conducted for six different elements (C, Al, Cu, Mo, Gd, and W) using 40 fs, 800 nm Ti: Sapphire laser. Time-of-flight (TOF) ion profile was analyzed and charge emission dependencies were investigated. The effects of incident laser interaction wi...

most of the methods that have been proposed for speed estimation of induction machines require the rotor and the stator resistance to change in the normal operating range. on the other hand, estimation of the rotor resistance requires rotor speed. in this paper, after studying conditions for simultaneous estimation of rotor speed and rotor resistance, a method for simultaneous estimation of rot...

[1] We use the complete set of Ulysses solar wind data to conduct a comprehensive determination of the oxygen flux in relation to the proton flux in the solar wind during a wide range of solar activity levels. The data cover the heliosphere between 1.3 and 5.4 AU and, due to the unique orbit of Ulysses, all of the heliographic latitudes within ±80°. We find log‐normal distributions for O and H ...

The \textit{heavy-fluxonium} circuit is a promising building block for superconducting quantum processors due to its long relaxation and dephasing time at the half-flux frustration point. However, suppressed charge matrix elements low transition frequency have made it challenging perform fast single-qubit gates using standard protocols. We report on new protocols reset, coherent control, readou...

(English) Botnets are generally recognized as one of the most challenging threats on the Internet today. Botnets have been involved in many attacks targeting multinational organizations and even nationwide internet services. As more effective detection and mitigation approaches are proposed by security researchers, botnet developers are employing new techniques for evasion. It is not surprising...
