Open AccessMesoscopic Klein-Schwinger effect in graphene
Strong electric field annihilation by particle–antiparticle pair creation, also known as the Schwinger effect, is a non-perturbative prediction of quantum electrodynamics. Its experimental demonstration remain...

Open AccessQCD and strongly coupled gauge theories: challenges and perspectives
We highlight the progress, current status, and open challenges of QCD-driven physics, in theory and in experiment. We discuss how the strong interaction is intimately connected to a broad sweep of physical pro...

Coupled aggregation and sedimentation processes: Three-dimensional off-lattice simulations
Coupled aggregation and sedimentation processes were studied by means of three-dimensional computer simulations. For this purpose, a large prism with no periodic boundary conditions for the sedimentation direc...

Determination of the helium-4 mass in a Penning trap
We have measured the cyclotron frequencies of He+, H+ 2 and D+ 2 ions in a room temperature Penning trap. The resonances were detected destructively by a time-of-flight technique. The statistical uncertainty of t...

The DLCA-RLCA transition arising in 2D-aggregation: simulations and mean field theory
A sticking probability model based on the average cluster lifetime is employed for deducing a kernel capable to describe the kinetics of computer simulated irreversible aggregation processes in two dimensions....

Lifetimes of metastable states in Sr II
The lifetimes of the 4d 2D 3/2,5/2 levels of Sr+ have been determined both experimentally and theoretically. The experiment was performed at an ion storage ring utilising collinear laser excitation. The calculati...

Isotope shifts and hyperfine structure in the transitions of gadolinium
High-resolution resonance ionization mass spectrometry has been used to measure isotope shifts and hyperfine structure in all (J = 2-6) and the ...

Isotope shifts and hyperfine structure in the transitions in calcium II
The isotope shift and hyperfine structure in the three - transitions in Ca II have been studied by fast ion beam collinear laser spectroscopy for all stable Ca isotopes. The ...

Doubly-differential ionization cross sections of positron impact on argon
We report the first measurement of doubly-differential ionization cross sections for positron impact on argon atoms. Energy- and angle-resolved measurements of ejected electrons in time correlation with the pr...

The effect of collisions on wave-breaking in a cold plasma
The effect of electron collisions on reducing the wave-breaking amplitude of resonantly-driven electrostatic fields in a cold plasma is investigated. By means of a simple theory collisions are shown to compete...

Damage anneal of antimony/phosphorus double implants in silicon
A method is presented for avoiding the dislocation generation in (100) silicon implanted with phosphorus doses up to 5×1015 ions/cm2 at 50 keV. The residual defects after the damage anneal are considerably reduce...

The reaction pp→pn π+ at 10 GeV/c and the OPE model
The reaction pp→pnπ+ and isobar production in \(pp \to {\mathcal{N}}^{ * + + } (1236)\) n have been studied at 1...
