  1. 1. Waves and instabilities in quantum plasmas

    Author : Shahid Ali; Padma Kant Shukla; Mattias Marklund; Jose Tito Mendonca; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Quantum mechanical effects; dusty plasma; linear and nonlinear waves; instabilities; nonlinear wave interactions; density gradients; magnetoplasmas.; Plasma physics; Plasmafysik;

    Abstract : The study of waves and instabilities in quantum plasmas is of fundamental importance for understanding collective interactions in superdense astrophysical objects, in high intense laser-plasma/solid-matter interactions, in microelectronic devices and metallic nanostructures. In dense quantum plasmas, there are new pressure laws associated with the Fermi-Dirac distribution functions and new quantum forces associated with the quantum Bohm potential and the Bohr magnetization involving electron ½ spin.

  2. 2. Conformal Einstein spaces and Bach tensor generalization in n dimensions

    Author : Jonas Bergman Ärlebäck; Brian Edgar; Magnus Herberthson; Mattias Marklund; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MATHEMATICS; MATEMATIK;

    Abstract : In this thesis we investigate necessary and su±cient conditions for an n-dimensional space, n ≥ 4, to be locally conformal to an Einstein space. After reviewing the classical results derived in tensors we consider the four-dimensional spinor result of Kozameh, Newman and Tod. READ MORE

  3. 3. Ultra-intense laser-plasma interaction for applied and fundamental physics

    Author : Arkady Gonoskov; Mattias Marklund; Gert Brodin; Vladimir Tikhonchuk; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ultra-intense laser; femtosecond pulse; plasma; relativistic phenomena; laser-driven acceleration; attosecond pulse generation; radiation reaction; fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : Rapid progress in ultra-intense laser technology has resulted in intensity levels surpassing 1022 W/cm2, reaching the highest possible density of electromagnetic energy amongst all controlled sources available in the laboratory. During recent decades, fast growth in available intensity has stimulated numerous studies based on the use of high intensity lasers as a unique tool for the initiation of nonlinear behavior in various basic systems: first molecules and atoms, then plasma resulting from the ionization of gases and solids, and, finally, pure vacuum.

  4. 4. Hydrodynamics of Binary Bose-Einstein Condensates and Hydro-elasticity of the Inner Crust of Neutron Stars

    Author : Dmitry Kobyakov; Emil Lundh; Vitaly Bychkov; Mattias Marklund; Achim Schwenk; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Binary Bose-Einstein condensates in ultracold gases; hydrodynamics; quantum turbulence; neutron stars; the inner crust; nuclear astrophysics; fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : In the present thesis, “Hydrodynamics of Binary Bose-Einstein Condensates and Hydro-elasticity of the Inner Crust of Neutron Stars”, the hydrodynamic effects, instabilities and superfluid turbulence in binary immiscible ultracold gases, and hydro-elastic macroscopic coupled modes and microscopic structure of the inner layers of the crust of neutron stars, are studied. The ultracold gas dynamics can be realized in the laboratory. READ MORE

  5. 5. QED and collective effects in vacuum and plasmas

    Author : Joakim Lundin; Mattias Marklund; Thomas Heinzl; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; QED; quantum electrodynamics; quantum plasmas; quantum vacuum; Plasma physics; Plasmafysik; fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : The theory of quantum electrodynamics (QED) was born out of an attempt to merge Einsteins theory of special relativity and quantum mechanics. Einsteins energy/mass equivalence together with Heisenberg's uncertainty principle allows for particle pairs to be spontaneously created and annihilated in vacuum. READ MORE
