Search for deviations from the ideal Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution for a gas at an interface
Petko Todorov, João Carlos de Aquino Carvalho, Isabelle Maurin +2
The isotropic Maxwell-Boltzmann (M-B) velocity distribution is the accepted standard for a gas at thermal equilibrium, with the Doppler width considered to deliver a very precise m…
Testing the limits of the Maxwell distribution of velocities for atoms flying nearly parallel to the walls of a thin cell
Petko Todorov, daniel Bloch
For a gas at thermal equilibrium, it is usually assumed that the velocity distribution follows an isotropic 3-dimensional Maxwell-Boltzmann (M-B) law. This assumption classically i…
Modelling stellar jets with magnetospheres using as initial states analytical MHD solutions
P. Todorov, T. Matsakos, V. Cayatte +3
In this paper we focus on the construction of stellar outflow models emerging from a polar coronal hole-type region surrounded by a magnetosphere in the equatorial regions during p…
Detection of slow atoms confined in a Cesium vapor cell by spatially separated pump and probe laser beams
Petko Todorov, Nikoolay Petrov, Isabelle Maurin +2
The velocity distribution of atoms in a thermal gas is usually described through a Maxwell-Boltzman distribution of energy, and assumes isotropy. As a consequence, the probability…
LMXB and IMXB Evolution: I. The Binary Radio Pulsar PSR J1614-2230
Jinrong Lin, S. Rappaport, Ph. Podsiadlowski +3
We have computed an extensive grid of binary evolution tracks to represent low- and intermediate mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs and IMXBs). The grid includes 42,000 models which covers…
A 2D nanosphere array for atomic spectroscopy
Marco Romanelli, Isabelle Maurin, Petko Todorov +2
We are interested in the spectroscopic behaviour of a gas confined in a micrometric or even nanometric volume. Such a situation could be encountered by the filling-up of a porous m…
