... In the presence of only uniform magnetic field B , the motion of a charged particle can be described with gyration about the guiding center and motion along the field line. ...

. A "radio phoenix" has been discovered using X-ray, radio, and optical data. This system contains the collision of two galaxy clusters located about 1.6 billion light years from Earth. The collision re-energized a regeneration of vast clouds of high-energy particles that primarily radiate at radio frequencies. Understanding how galaxy clusters grow over time, including through collisions, is important for cosmology. X-ray: NASA/CXC/Univ of Hamburg/F. de Gasperin et al; Optical: SDSS; Radio: NRAO/VLA

Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory Memorandum To : From Date: Re: M. Cappi, Strong Gravity SDT/YB Team, XMS team : M. Garcia April 14, 2010 XMS high/mid/low resolution event rates for bright AGN mrg-2010-02v2 This memo arises out of the concern that the bright AGN that will be used to observed strong gravity effects ­ in particular those for which time-resolved measurements of test particle orbits will be made ­ may generate counting rates in the XMS that are sufficient to overwhelm it. ...

... In electron-positron colliders, effect of the lattice modification by opposing bunch focusing on the equilibrium radiation emittance is important at high values of the space charge parameter, so one should correctly evaluate this dynamic radiation emittance of the weak beam, which may differ a lot from the nominal emittance, already in the linear beam-beam force model. ... The linearized beam-beam force is equivalent to focusing insertion in linear lattice of the collider. ...

... GCR and SCR are primary cosmic rays. 10-15 years after the discovery of cosmic radiation (1919) there emerged two main avenues of investigation in the physics of cosmic rays (CR): 1) nuclear - elucidation of the origin of elementary particles and nuclear interactions; and 2) astrophysical (space physics) - solution of the problem related to the origin and variations (changes in intensity) of CR. ... Besides, the CR flux in interplanetary space is, strictly speaking, not isotropic. ...
