Reflected electron beams at quasi-perpendicular shocks generate a cascade of instabilities, contributing to their self-confinement and acceleration.

Blue Origin and NASA are teaming up on a new mission to protect Earth from asteroids, building on NASA's DART success.

Long-established in accelerator physics, bent crystals are now being explored as tools to measure the fundamental properties of short-lived charm baryons. Halo extraction The first bent crystal of the ...

Abstract The evaluation of the deflection in beams is an indispensable step of the structural design. Currently, many standard codes adopt the Branson’s model. However, the Branson’s model ...

Abstract: Accurate characterization of surfaces using cantilever-based optical beam deflection (OBD) systems is crucial for obtaining the sample’s “true” topography and its corresponding material ...

NASA’s DART mission, the first-ever planetary defense test in space, sent a spacecraft to crash into an asteroid in 2022. That mission was a success. It showed that, in a hypothetical scenario where a ...

While working on validation examples for a material model, I encountered a behaviour I was not expecting. The setup involves a beam aligned with the x-axis that gets deflected in the y-direction due ...

In this video I take a look at five methods that can be used to predict how a beam will deform when loads are applied to it. These are the double integration method, Macaulay's method, the principle ...
