Hectometric Continuum Radiation Observations on Different Temporal Scales in Near-Earth Space
JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH-SPACE PHYSICS. 2025. Vol. 130. Article e2025JA033900.
This study analyzes data from the ERG (Arase) satellite over a period of nearly 7 years (2017–2023). During this time, about 1,000 cases of hectometric continuum (HMC) radiation in near‐Earth space were detected, which made it possible to identify characteristic features on different time scales. On a daily scale, it was established that HMC is observed at night and is completely absent during the day. There is also an asymmetric shift (different delay before the end and start of HMC generation during sunrise and sunset, respectively) of 1–3 hr relative to sunrise and sunset. Most likely, this is due to the fact that at night, when there is no solar radiation and the plasma density in the upper ionosphere is reduced, HMC is generated. On larger scales, seasonal and annual variations in HMC were detected. A predominance of HMC cases was observed during the summer months, with the fewest cases occurring during the autumn and spring equinoxes. In addition, starting from the second half of 2022, the HMC ceased to be observed, which may be associated with the approach to the peak of the 25th solar activity cycle, as indicated by the increase in the F10.7 index, Wolf numbers and Lyman‐alpha radiation, which traditionally characterize solar activity.

The planar microcavity structure was grown using molecular-beam epitaxy.
Single-mode lasing was observed at a wavelength of 960 nm for pillars with a diameter of
15 μm. At 300 K, the lasing threshold was approximately 30 mW. Increasing the pump
power to 2.7 times the threshold power resulted in a mode energy shift of approximately
1 meV. This shift ...

We examine plasma excitations with linear dispersion in a system of superconducting electrons in thin
NbN disks. Using frequency-domain terahertz spectroscopy, we study the evolution of plasmons up to critical
temperature Tc. The observed excitations tend to shift to the lower frequencies while temperature is increasing
and the spectral features vanish at T > Tc. We study the ...

We demonstrate a thermo-optically tunable microlaser based on an InGaAs/GaAs quantum-dot (QD) active region employing a deformed limaçon-shaped cavity. The asymmetric geometry effectively lifts the degeneracy of high-Q whispering-gallery modes, enabling single-mode lasing. A side-mode suppression ratio exceeds 25 dB over a wide current range. Under continuous-wave electrical pumping, the device achieves a peak output power ...

Exact theories of electrolyte structure must satisfy the nonlocal constraints imposed by electrostatic screening, yet these constraints are most commonly formulated only for homogeneous bulk systems and at the level of two-point correlations. Here, we develop a unified field-theoretic framework that extends them to general inhomogeneous ionic fluids and nonlinear charge correlations. Using a standard ...

We report a theoretical study of the ac response of superconducting quantum metamaterials (SQMs), i.e., an array of qubits (two-level systems) embedded in a low-dissipative resonator. By making use of a particular example of a SQM, namely the array of charge qubits capacitively coupled to the resonator, we obtain a second-order phase transition between an ...

Identifying the microscopic processes limiting conductivity is essential for understanding correlated quantum materials. In twisted bilayer graphene, metallic resistivity follows ρ ~ Tα with widely varying α, fueling competing interpretations from phonon-limited transport and umklapp scattering to strange metallicity and heavy-fermion renormalization. Here, we use terahertz excitation to selectively heat electrons while keeping the lattice cold, separating ...

Migration for higher education is one of the largest and most intense migration flows in most developed countries, and Russia is no exception. The direction of educational migration flows is determined by many factors. Among these, traditionally significant determinants of the basic gravity model include the population size of the centers participating in migration exchange ...

The incompressible three-dimensional Euler equations develop very thin pancake-like regions of exponen tially increasing vorticity. The characteristic thickness of such regions decreases exponentially with time, while the other two dimensions do not change considerably, making the flow near each pancake strongly anisotropic. The pancakes emerge in increasing number with time, which may enhance the anisotropy ...

Clarity of knowledge and reasoning is necessary in many cases. Yet vagueness in scientific thinking related to surprise, curiosity, "ability to engage with not-knowing" (de Freitas) and abductive reasoning is also a crucially important source of scientific creativity which supplements combinatorial logic when dealing with the already known. Starting from studies by C. S. Peirce ...

The molecular-scale behavior of water in heterogeneous clay–quartz systems is critical for understanding cementation processes in natural soils and compacted bentonite, which is crucial for oil recovery and nuclear waste disposal barriers construction. Here we investigate how heterogeneity of mixed Na-montmorillonite and α-quartz surfaces affect water structure and dynamics in nanopores of 2.5 to 60 Å ...

We consider the remote state restoring and perfect transfer of the zero-order coherence matrix (PTZ) in a spin system governed by the XXZ-Hamiltonian conserving the excitation number. The restoring tool is represented by several nonzero Larmor frequencies in the Hamiltonian. To simplify the analysis we use two approximating models including either step-wise or pulse-type time-dependence ...

We consider the state-restoring protocol based on the controlled interaction of a linear chain with environment through incoherent control by the specially adjusted step-wise time-dependent Lindblad operators. We show that the best restoring result (maximal scale factors in the restored state) corresponds to the symmetrical Lindblad equation. (0, 1)-excitation dynamics is considered numerically, and restoring ...

The ERG (Arase) satellite recently discovered a non-thermal hectometric continuum with a narrowband frequency structure. The mechanism behind the generation of this type of emission in the near-Earth plasma is still unknown.

A thin current sheet in the Earth’s magnetotail with characteristic thickness of one to several proton gyroradii is often observed during magnetospheric disturbances named substorms, when a relatively thick current configuration in the magnetotail is narrowed to an extremely small thickness and then can spontaneously be destroyed. The current-sheet destruction is usually accompanied by such ...

The solar wind ion transport across the magnetopause is one of the main sources of plasma for the Earth's magnetotail. Such a transport is supported by various dynamic processes at the flank magnetopause, where wave-particle interactions play a crucial role in ion flow thermalization and diffusion across magnetic field surfaces of the magnetopause tangential discontinuity. ...

Earth's magnetotail is filled with solar wind and ionospheric electrons, whose initial energies are significantly lower than the typical energies (temperatures) of plasmasheet electrons. One of the most common mechanisms responsible for heating of solar wind and ionospheric electrons in Earth's magnetotail is adiabatic heating caused by earthward convection of these electrons from the deep ...
