Confinement of antiprotons in the electrostatic space charge of positrons in a model of the ALPHA antihydrogen trap (open access)

Confinement of antiprotons in the electrostatic space charge of positrons in a model of the ALPHA antihydrogen trap

This article details the equilibrium of a positron plasma in a model of the ALPHA apparatus that is computed using a finite-difference method. The positron plasma in the model extends to axial magnetic mirrors in absence of an octupole field. Formation of a three-dimensional electrostatic potential well is found to occur self-consistently. Well depths under various conditions are evaluated. Also, the equilibrium with an antiproton plasma confined in the potential well is computed.

Entropy Balance in the Expanding Universe: A Novel Perspective (open access)

Entropy Balance in the Expanding Universe: A Novel Perspective

The article describes cosmic expansion as correlated with the standpoints of local observers’ co-moving horizons. In keeping with relational quantum mechanics, which claims that quantum systems are only meaningful in the context of measurements, the authors suggest that information gets ergodically “diluted” in our isotropic and homogeneous expanding Universe, so that an observer detects just a limited amount of the total cosmic bits.

Spatially Periodic Electromagnetic Force Field For Plasma Confinement and Control (open access)

Spatially Periodic Electromagnetic Force Field For Plasma Confinement and Control

In this article, a theoretical understanding is developed of the single-particle reflection properties of a force field, considering the incident charged particles to have a non-drifting, isotropic velocity distribution. Classical trajectory Monte Carlo simulations and analytical modeling are employed. The initiation of an experimental effort to study force fields is described.
