... You may have noticed in the drawing (reproduced here) that the circuit of the fluorescent light fixture included a " ballast coil. ... Ordinary hot-filament lightbulbs are connected directly to power lines, but fluorescent lamps always receive their current through a ballast. ... And if you think Ohm's law is badly violated by fluorescent lamp plasmas--just wait till you read about the ring current , the electric current carried around Earth by trapped ions and electrons of the radiation belt. ...

SLIDE 1 Coherent beam­beam e#ects study. ... He has shown that a finite length (in other words equal to # # ) of colliding bunches can lead to the coupling of synchro­betatron modes in the beam­beam system, and thus a head­tail type instability of colliding bunches may arise. ... These modes have been observed in di#erent machines. ... SLIDE 5 Figure shows the dependence of the measured and calculated synchro­betatron mode tunes on the beam current for equal electron and positron bunch intensities. ...
