Reduced nonlinear description of Farley-Buneman instability

A. S. Volokitin, B. Atamaniuk

In the study on nonlinear wave-wave processes in an ionosphere and a magnetosphere usually the main attention is paid to investigation of plasma turbulence at well developed stage,…

Absorption Phenomena and a Probable Blast Wave in the 13 July 2004 Eruptive Event

V. V. Grechnev, A. M. Uralov, V. A. Slemzin +3

We present a case study of the 13 July 2004 solar event, in which disturbances caused by eruption of a filament from an active region embraced a quarter of the visible solar surfac…

Probing nonstandard interactions with reactor neutrinos

J. Barranco, O. G. Miranda, T. I. Rashba

New limits on the weak mixing angle and on the electron neutrino effective charge radius in the low energy regime, below 100 MeV, are obtained from a combined fit of all electron-(…

Gamma-ray halo around 3C 279: looking through the Sun on the 8th of October

Malcolm Fairbairn, Timur Rashba, Sergey Troitsky

We discuss how the solar occultations of bright sources of energetic gamma rays can be used to extract non-trivial physical and astrophysical information, including the angular siz…

Oscillations of Dirac and Majorana neutrinos in matter and a magnetic field

Maxim Dvornikov, Jukka Maalampi

We study the evolution of massive mixed Dirac and Majorana neutrinos in matter under the influence of a transversal magnetic field. The analysis is based on relativistic quantum me…

Testing the Dark-Energy-Dominated Cosmology by the Solar-System Experiments

Yurii V. Dumin

According to the recent astronomical data, the most part of energy in the Universe is in the 'dark' form, which is effectively described by Lambda-term in Einstein equations. All a…

The influence of the Alfvénic drift on the shape of cosmic ray spectra in SNRs

V. N. Zirakashvili, V. S. Ptuskin

Cosmic ray acceleration in SNRs in the presence of the Alfvénic drift is considered. It is shown that spectra of accelerated particles may be considerably softer in the presence of…

An Extreme Solar Event of 20 January 2005: Properties of the Flare and the Origin of Energetic Particles

V. V. Grechnev, V. G. Kurt, I. M. Chertok +9

The extreme solar and SEP event of 20 January 2005 is analyzed from two perspectives. Firstly, we study features of the main phase of the flare, when the strongest emissions from m…

Wave instabilities in an anisotropic magnetized space plasma

N. S. Dzhalilov, V. D. Kuznetsov, J. Staude

We study wave instability in an collisionless, rarefied hot plasma (e.g. solar wind or corona). We consider the anisotropy produced by the magnetic field, when the thermal gas pres…

BCS approximation to the effective vector vertex of superfluid fermions

L. B. Leinson

We examine the effective interaction of nonrelativistic fermions with an external vector field in superfluid systems. In contrast to the complicated vertex equation, usually used i…

Current Helicity and Twist as Two Indicators of The Mirror Asymmetry of solar Magnetic Fields

D. D. Sokoloff, H. Zhang, K. Kuzanyan +3

A comparison between the two tracers of magnetic field mirror asymmetry in solar active regions, twist and current helicity, is presented. It is shown that for individual active re…

Modeling Bell's Non-resonant Cosmic Ray Instability

V. N. Zirakashvili, V. S. Ptuskin, H. J. Voelk

We have studied the non-resonant streaming instability of charged energetic particles moving through a background plasma, discovered by Bell (2004). We confirm his numerical result…

Diffusive Shock Acceleration with Magnetic Amplification by Non-resonant Streaming Instability in SNRs

V. N. Zirakashvili, V. S. Ptuskin

We investigate the diffusive shock acceleration in the presence of the non-resonant streaming instability introduced by Bell (2004). The numerical MHD simulations of the magnetic f…
