A Multiscale “Working Brain” Model

TL;DR: The combined model provides a simple, highly flexible framework for quantitatively modeling a variety of mesoscale to macroscale brain phenomena, ranging from normal behaviors to highly nonlinear dynamics such as found in seizures, and for examining interactions between such phenomena.
Journal ArticleDOI

New constraints and energy conversion efficiencies for plasma emission

TL;DR: In this article, energy conversion efficiencies for STI emission processes are derived, and conditions are derived for emission near fp, and 2'fp by decay processes, which depend on whether significant nonthermal levels of L′ or S waves are produced by the initial nonlinear processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

The geometric phase. Observations at the single-photon level

TL;DR: In this paper, a quantum-field theoretical analysis of the geometric phase interferometer in the limit of a small photon number is presented, as well as some experimental results that confirm that the optical effects due to geometric phase persist down to the single-photon level.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analytic treatment of weak-turbulence Langmuir wave electrostatic decay

TL;DR: In this article, the three-wave decay of beam-driven Langmuir waves into ion-sound and backscattered LW waves is analyzed and a single well-behaved integral is evaluated numerically and approximated analytically.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stochastic growth theory of spatially‐averaged distributions of Langmuir Fields in Earth's foreshock

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that stochastic growth theory (SGT) can explain a power-law spatially-averaged distributions P(bar) in the wave field E with the bar denoting this averaging over position, when the observed power law variations of the mean and standard deviation of log E with position are combined with the log normal statistics predicted by SGT at each location.
