We present a semiclassical explanation for the morphology of the surface Fermi arcs of Weyl semimetals.Viewing the surface states as a two-dimensional Fermi gas subject to band bending and Berry curvatures,we show tha...
A project of the space train MARSZUG intended for regular delivery of astronauts to Mars is considered. In the first stage of the flight, the astronauts with the help of the carrier rocket equipped with a chemical roc...

Erosion can influence cathode life,and is thus considered to be one of the main factors limiting the application of applied-field magnetoplasmadynamic thrusters.In this paper,erosion sites on graphite cathodes are stu...
A project of spacecraft “moonplane” for regular delivery of astronauts onto the Moon is considered. At the first stage of flight by using a carrier rocket, equipped with a chemical rocket engine, the astronauts are ...
Using the generalized viscoelastic fluid model, we derive the dielectric response function in a strongly coupled dusty magnetoplasma which reveals two different dust acoustic(DA) wave modes in the hydrodynamic and k...
