Modelling of nonneutral plasmas trapped by electric and magnetic fields relevant to gyrotron electron guns

Guillaume Michel Le Bars

Gyrotrons are a class of high-power vacuum-electronics microwave sources, which are envisioned to play an important role in the domain of magnetically confined fusion plasmas. Indeed, only gyrotrons are capable of producing continuous electromagnetic waves ...

Modal engineering of electromagnetic circuits to achieve rapid settling times

Matthias Imboden

Inductive circuits and devices are ubiquitous and important design elements in many applications, such as magnetic drives, galvanometers, magnetic scanners, applying direct current (DC) magnetic fields to systems, radio frequency coils in nuclear magnetic ...

Electrically tunable dipolar interactions between layer-hybridized excitons

Andras Kis, Fedele Tagarelli, Edoardo Lopriore

Transition-metal dichalcogenide bilayers exhibit a rich exciton landscape including layer-hybridized excitons, i.e. excitons which are of partly intra- and interlayer nature. In this work, we study hybrid exciton-exciton interactions in naturally stacked W ...

Influence of a lossy ground on the lightning performance of overhead transmission lines

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Rafael Silva Alipio

This paper investigates the impact of incorporating both displacement currents and frequency-dependent soil parameters in the calculation of the ground-return impedance for the determination of the backflashover rate of 138 kV and 230 kV overhead transmiss ...

A Self-Consistent Return Stroke Model That Includes the Effect of the Ground Conductivity at the Strike Point

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein

A current generation type return stroke model which can take into account the possible modifications of the return stroke properties by the soil conductivity at the strike point of the lightning flash is introduced. The model is also capable of incorporati ...

The Geometry and Charge of the Streamer Bursts Generated by Lightning Rods under the Influence of High Electric Fields

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein

The streamer bursts generated during the initiation and propagation of leaders play an important role in the creation and maintenance of hot discharge channels in air. The most important parameters related to streamer bursts in this respect are the length ...

A Prony-Based Approach for Accelerating the Lightning Electromagnetic Fields Computation: Effect of the Soil Finite Conductivity

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein

This work provides an approach for speeding up the evaluation of lightning ElectroMagnetic (EM) fields in the case of a finite soil conductivity. The soil conductivity is taken into account through the well-known Cooray-Rubinstein (CR) approximation, which ...

Comment on “Straight lightning as a signature of macroscopic dark matter”

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein

In the discussed paper [N. Starkman, H. Winch, J. S. Sidhu, and G. Starkman, Straight lightning as a signature of macroscopic dark matter, Phys. Rev. D 103, 063024 (2021)], the authors have made several assumptions and statements concerning the initiation ...

On the Use of Benford’s Law to Assess the Quality of the Data Provided by Lightning Locating Systems

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Amirhossein Mostajabi, Seyed Mohammad Ehsan Mansouri Tehrani

Lightning causes significant damage and casualties globally by directly striking humans and livestock, by igniting forest fires, and by inducing electrical surges in electronic infrastructure, airplanes, rockets, etc. Monitoring the evolution of thundersto ...

The application of the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) technique to lightning studies

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein

We have seen in this chapter that the FDTD method for solving Maxwell's equations is accurate and versatile in a very wide variety of applications related to lightning. One can analyze the lightning electromagnetic field propagation over distances ranging ...

Interaction of lightning-generated electromagnetic fields with overhead and underground cables

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Carlo Alberto Nucci

In this chapter, we discussed the TL theory and its application to the problem of lightning electromagnetic field coupling to transmission lines. After a short discussion on the underlying assumptions of the TL theory, we described seemingly different but ...
