Response of propagation of ELF electromagnetic waves through the morning ionosphere to small density variations caused by infrasonic wave
Advances in Space Research. 2024. Vol. 73. No. 7. P. 3743–3752.

We consider the problem of the effect of small plasma density variations on the propagation and
reflection of ELF (extremely-low-frequency) electromagnetic wave incident on the morning ionosphere
from above. Modifications of the electromagnetic wave field near the Earth surface and coefficient of
wave energy reflection from ionosphere caused by infrasonic wave are studied. The greatest
modifications of the field on the Earth surface and reflection coefficient are related to the density
perturbations at altitudes of strong electromagnetic wave attenuation (80–110 km). Reflection of
electromagnetic waves is especially sensitive to the plasma density perturbations if the value of horizontal
refractive index is close to a unit. In this case, modulation percentage of reflection coefficient can exceed
the modulation percentage of density in the infrasonic wave by an order of magnitude. The parametric
influence of plasma density perturbations in an infrasonic wave on the ELF electromagnetic field is
analyzed. If the values of the horizontal wave numbers of the electromagnetic and infrasonic waves are
close to each other, the field of the electromagnetic wave near the Earth surface can increase several
times. The obtained results are important for understanding the interconnection of ionospheric wave
processes of different nature. The study of the modulation of coefficient of ELF reflection from the
ionosphere is relevant for explaining the operation modes of a plasma magnetospheric maser.

Electron attachment and detachment in H2O:O2 and H2O:air mixtures are theoretically studied at moderate (40–100 Td) reduced electric fields. It is shown that there are two synergistic mechanisms of ultra-rapid electron detachment from negative ions in these mixtures, whereas these detachment channels are absent in pure gases. Effective attachment coefficient calculated with consideration for fast ion–molecule ...

This paper demonstrates a special stochastic operation mode of a photonic element with a thin GeTe film deposited at a silicon nitride waveguide. As opposed to traditional deterministic switching between stable states, it has been shown that identical pump laser pulses cause a stochastic change in the transmission coefficient. The discovered effect opens up new ...

Dual-mode infrared detection via photovoltaic and barrier pyroelectric effects in PbTe p–n junctions
Jarashneli A., Кобцев Д. М., Upcher A. et al., Journal of Applied Physics 2026 Vol. 140 No. 2 Article 024501
In the work, two effects appeared in PbTe p–n junctions under mid-wavelength infrared (2 − 5 μm) and long-wavelength infrared irradiation (≈10.6 μm). The first effect was created by the optical absorption of lR-photons in PbTe and caused by its photovoltage effect. The second novel effect is related to the heating process and the formation ...

We report the electrical detection of the spin resonance with temporal resolution in a two-dimensional electron system. Spin resonance was excited by pulses of subterahertz radiation characterized by relatively short rise and fall times on the order of 10 ns and was observed as a resonant peak in the high-frequency conductivity of the two-dimensional channel.

We investigate the temperature dependence of the pseudospin phase transition at filling factor 𝜈=2 in the quantum Hall regime. Experiments were performed on a high-quality, wide AlAs quantum well, where the pseudospin degree of freedom arises naturally from the near degeneracy and equivalence of the two conduction-band valleys. The anisotropic 𝑔-factor inherent to AlAs enabled independent measurement of ...

The orthorhombic phase of 𝛼-Mo2 C is a key component in electrocatalytic applications, as Mo2C-based catalysts can exhibit catalytic performance comparable to or exceeding that of noble metals. Despite its technological relevance, theoretical understanding of the anisotropy in the thermal expansion and related thermoelastic properties of 𝛼-Mo2 C remains limited. In this work, first-principles calculations ...

We present two models with explicit long-range electrostatics in the form of Coulomb interactions. Both models include point charges depending on their local atomic environments, and the second model also conserves a total charge of an atomic system. We combine the proposed long-range models with the local moment tensor potential (MTP) and demonstrate that they ...

The global optimization of atomic clusters represents a fundamental challenge in computational chemistry and materials science due to the exponential growth of local minima with system size (i.e., the curse of dimensionality). We introduce a framework that overcomes this limitation by exploiting the low-rank structure of potential energy surfaces through tensor train (TT) decomposition. Our ...

We consider solutions of the 2D Toda lattice hierarchy which are elliptic functions of the zeroth time t_0=x. It is known that their poles as functions of t_1 move as particles of the elliptic Ruijsenaars-Schneider model. The goal of this paper is to extend this correspondence to the level of hierarchies. We show that the ...

This effect is of considerable interest for the efficient integration of antiferromagnetic materials into the fields of superconducting spintronics and electronics.

The miniaturization of superconducting electronics demands precise control over quasiparticle dynamics at the nanoscale. Understanding and controlling quasiparticle dynamics is essential for advancing superconducting electronics, particularly as device dimensions approach the nanoscale.
