A critique of recent semi-classical spin-half quantum plasma theories
Govind S. Krishnaswami, Rajaram Nityananda, Abhijit Sen +1
Certain recent semi-classical theories of spin-half quantum plasmas are examined with regard to their internal consistency, physical applicability and relevance to fusion, astrophy…
Higgs Mechanism and the Added-Mass Effect
Govind S. Krishnaswami, Sachin S. Phatak
In the Higgs mechanism, mediators of the weak force acquire masses by interacting with the Higgs condensate, leading to a vector boson mass matrix. On the other hand, a rigid body…
Comment on "Spin-Gradient-Driven Light Amplification in a Quantum Plasma"
Govind S. Krishnaswami, Rajaram Nityananda, Abhijit Sen +1
A comment on the Letter by S. Braun, F. A. Asenjo and S. M. Mahajan, Phys. Rev. Lett., 109, 175003 (2012). We show that recent arguments for light amplification driven by inhomogen…
