Computation of the attenuation function of the lightning return-stroke current from electromagnetic fields measured in a short-duration time-window — Part II: Numerical implementation

In the present paper, we show, by means of numerical simulations, that electromagnetic field data obtained from the radiation of a return-stroke lightning discharge and measured over a short-duration time-window can be exploited to reconstruct the attenuat ...

Computation of the attenuation function of the lightning return-stroke current from electromagnetic fields measured in a short-duration time-window, Part I: Theoretical investigation

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein

In a recent paper, a procedure to reconstruct the attenuation function of a return-stroke current from the simultaneous measurements of the channel-base current and the radiated electromagnetic fields was presented. One of the assumptions of the whole fram ...

Nonperturbative aspects of scattering amplitudes

Miguel Alexandre Ribeiro Correia

In this thesis we study how physical principles imposed on the S-matrix, such as Lorentz invariance, unitarity, crossing symmetry and analyticity constrain quantum field theories at the nonperturbative level. We start with a pedagogical introduction to the ...

Controlling the magnetic and electric responses of dielectric nanoparticles via near-field coupling

Olivier Martin, Andrei Kiselev

Among the two materials families used in nanophotonics, the fundamental mode for metal nanostructures is electric, while that for dielectric nanostructures is magnetic. Consequently, the optical properties of hybrid dimers that incorporate both materials h ...

General invariance and equilibrium conditions for lattice dynamics in 1D, 2D, and 3D materials

Nicola Marzari, Changpeng Lin, Samuel Poncé

The long-wavelength behavior of vibrational modes plays a central role in carrier transport, phonon-assisted optical properties, superconductivity, and thermomechanical and thermoelectric properties of materials. Here, we present general invariance and equ ...

Complementary Metasurfaces for Guiding Electromagnetic Wave

Mohammad Sajjad Mirmoosa

Metasurfaces can be employed for designing waveguides that confine the electromagnetic energy while they are open structures. In this communication, we introduce a new type of such waveguides, formed by two penetrable metasurfaces having complementary isot ...

Mixed scalar-current bootstrap in three dimensions

Alessandro Vichi, Marten Jan Reehorst

We study the mixed system of correlation functions involving a scalar field charged under a global U(1) symmetry and the associated conserved spin-1 current J(mu). Using numerical bootstrap techniques we obtain bounds on new observables not accessible in t ...

Dynamics of optical forces and torques in plasmonic systems: a surface integral equation

Olivier Martin, Karim Achouri, Andrei Kiselev

A novel approach is introduced to determine the time evolution of optical forces and torques on arbitrary shape nanostructures by combining Maxwell's stress tensor with the surface integral equation method (SIE). Conventional time averaging of Maxwell’s st ...

Differential operators for superconformal correlation functions

Andrea Manenti

We present a systematic method to expand in components four dimensional superconformal multiplets. The results cover all possible N = 1 multiplets and some cases of interest for N = 2. As an application of the formalism we prove that certain N = 2 spinning ...

Studying the different coupling regimes for a plasmonic particle in a plasmonic trap

Olivier Martin, Jeonghyeon Kim

Plasmonic antennas improve the stiffness and resolution of optical tweezers by producing a strong near-field. When the antenna traps metallic objects, the optically-resonant object affects the near-field trap, and this interaction should be examined to est ...

Quasiconvexity and Relaxation in Optimal Transportation of Closed Differential Forms

Bernard Dacorogna

This manuscript extends the relaxation theory from nonlinear elasticity to electromagnetism and to actions defined on paths of differential forms. The introduction of a gauge allows for a reformulation of the notion of quasiconvexity in Bandyopadhyay et al ...

Guiding-centre theory for kinetic-magnetohydrodynamic modes in strongly flowing plasmas

Wilfred Anthony Cooper, Jonathan Graves, David Pfefferlé, Samuel Lanthaler

A kinetic-magnetohydrodynamic model with kinetic pressure closure is derived from a consistent guiding-centre framework. Higher-order (gyroviscous) corrections to the pressure tensor are derived in complex geometry from a reduced kinetic equation. The prop ...
