Nonperturbative potentials: Phase transitions and light horizons
Yuan Shi
It is commonly believed that a massive real scalar field only mediates short-range interactions on the scale of its Compton wavelength via the Yukawa potential. However, in the…
Plasma physics in strong-field regimes: theories and simulations
Yuan Shi, Hong Qin, Nathaniel J. Fisch
In strong electromagnetic fields, unique plasma phenomena and applications emerge, whose description requires recently developed theories and simulations [Y. Shi, Ph.D. thesis, Pri…
Amplification of mid-infrared lasers via magnetized-plasma coupling
Yuan Shi, Nathaniel J. Fisch
Plasmas may be used as gain media for amplifying intense lasers, and external magnetic fields may be applied to improve the performance. For mid-infrared lasers, the requisite magn…
Three-wave interactions in magnetized warm-fluid plasmas: general theory with evaluable coupling coefficient
Yuan Shi
Resonant three-wave coupling is an important mechanism via which waves interact in a nonlinear medium. When the medium is a magnetized warm-fluid plasma, a previously-unknown formu…
Do pulsars rotate clockwise or counterclockwise?
Renaud Gueroult, Yuan Shi, Jean-Marcel Rax +1
Pulsars are rotating neutron stars which emit lighthouse-like beams. Owing to their unique properties, pulsars are a unique astrophysical tool to test general relativity, inform on…
Radiation reaction of classical hyperbolic oscillator: experimental signatures
Yuan Shi
When accelerated by a constant force in the lab frame, a classical charge experiences no self force. In this case, the particle radiates without dissipating its kinetic and potenti…
