Force, metric, or mass: Disambiguating causes of uniform gravity
Yuan Shi
In addition to nonzero forces and nontrivial metrics, here I show that a nonconstant Higgs expectation value, which endows elementary particles with their masses, also leads to app…
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…
