The efficiency of planar channeling for positive particles is limited by nuclear scattering when particles approach too close to the nuclei within the atomic planes. To mitigate this effect, a solution was proposed in 2007 [1], involving the creation of an optimized interruption in the crystal lattice at a strategic position before nuclear dechanneling can occur. Implementing this solution...

It is shown that if the screening function of an atomic potential may be described within the Thomas-Fermi approximation, the corresponding continuous potential for planar channeling to a good accuracy reduces to a truncated Coulomb potential. The sum of two displaced Coulomb potentials also accurately approximates thermal continuous potentials for (110) Si, Ge, W and (111) Ge oriented...

We have devised an experiment to reveal structures in angular distributions of axially channeled protons that are the most resistant to distortions caused by the multiple scattering with crystal electrons that, in the limiting process, erase all structures and produce a featureless Gaussian distribution. The origin of the observed shape stability was linked to the shape constancy of certain...

Previously, calculations showed that the channeling of low-energy ions in SWCNTs leads to the emergence of many-particle interactions, which leads to the establishment of a special regime of particle motion in the SWCNT channel, similar to gliding [1]. In this work, using TD-DFT [2] and ab initio molecular dynamics [3] methods, a similar mechanism was considered, taking into account...

The propagation of electromagnetic waves in plasmas is allowed up to a maximum density (critical density) at which the pulsation of the wave W equals the plasma frequency Wp. However, at high intensities some phenomena arise which allow electromagnetic radiation to penetrate regions of the plasma at density higher than the critical one. Some of these phenomena will be presented here.
