Hazards Induced by Breach of Liquid Rocket Fuel Tanks: Conditions and Risks of Cryogenic Liquid Hydrogen-Oxygen Mixture Explosions
Viatcheslav Osipov, Cyrill Muratov, Halyna Hafiychuk +5
We analyze the data of purposeful rupture experiments with LOx and LH2 tanks, the Hydrogen-Oxygen Vertical Impact (HOVI) tests that were performed to clarify the ignition mechanism…
Modulation of Negative Index Metamaterials in the Near-IR Range
Evgenia Kim, Wei Wu, Ekaterina Ponizovskaya +5
Optical modulation of the effective refractive properties of a "fishnet" metamaterial with a Ag/Si/Ag heterostructure is demonstrated in the near-IR range and the associated fast d…
Ensembles of plasmonic nanospheres at optical frequencies and a problem of negative index behavior
E. V. Ponizovskaya, A. M. Bratkovsky
Arrays of metallic nanoparticles support individual and collective plasmonic excitations that contribute to unusual phenomena like surface enhanced Raman scattering, anomalous tran…
Reply to "Comment on 'Theory for tailoring sonic devices: Diffraction dominates over refraction' "
N. Garcia, M. Nieto-Vesperinas, E. V. Ponizovskaya +1
In their comment, A. Hakansson, J. Sanchez-Dehesa, F. Cervera, F. Meseguer, L. Sanchis, and J. Llinares say that our conclusion stating that diffraction prevails over refraction in…
Low Losses Left Handed Materials Using Metallic Magnetic Cylinders
N. Garcia, E. V. Ponizovskaia
We discuss materials based on arrays of metallic magnetic cylindrical structures near ferromagnetic resonance with applied magnetic fields at microwave frequencies. We have found t…
