This work describes the production and characterization of optical waveguides in lithium fluoride crystal (LiF) produced by exposing the crystal to a focused femtosecond laser beam, with the crystal displacement perpendicular ...

Using 2D particle-in-cell plasma simulations, we study electron acceleration by temperature anisotropy instabilities, assuming conditions typical of above-the-loop-top sources in solar flares. We focus on the long-term ...

We consider the ray limit of propagating ultrasound waves in three-dimensional bodies made from a homogeneous, isotropic, elastic material. Using a Monte Carlo approach, we simulate the propagation and proliferation of ...

The dissertation presents a reflection on the problem that arises when approaching the ways of knowing in a science discipline, such is the case of quantum mechanics in explaining the phenomenon of duality wave - particle; ...

In this work we present numerical results for the 2D problem of scattering E polarised whispering-gallery mode from concave convex perfectly conducting boundary. The results were obtained by applying the developed method ...
