Collisionless and weakly collisional plasmas often exhibit non-thermal quasi-equilibria.
Among these quasi-equilibria, distributions with power-law tails are ubiquitous. It is shown that …

Plasmas whose Coulomb-collision rates are very small may relax on shorter timescales to
non-Maxwellian quasi-equilibria, which, nevertheless, have a universal form, with …

PURPOSE We wanted to investigate the frequency of undisclosed changes in the outcomes
of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) between trial registration and publication. METHODS …

We consider a nearly collisionless plasma consisting of a species of `test particles' in 1D-1V,
stirred by an externally imposed stochastic electric field. The mean effect on the particle …

Background: Screening is different from investigation, and these differences have important
implications in the assessment of screening programs. Methods: I review the differences …

The Debye sheath is known to vanish completely in magnetised plasmas for a sufficiently
small electron gyroradius and small angle between the magnetic field and the wall. This angle …

We study how radiation reaction leads plasmas initially in kinetic equilibrium to develop
features in momentum space, such as anisotropies and population inversion, resulting in a ring-…

The mitochondrial diseases are uncommon multisystem disorders characterized by the
presence of functionally and/or structurally abnormal mitochondria. As there have been few …

Radio bubbles, ubiquitous features of the intracluster medium around active galactic nuclei,
are known to rise buoyantly for multiple scale heights through the intracluster medium (ICM). …

THERE are two methods by which the ideals of the Eugenist may be attained, each of which
has a sphere of usefulness inour efforts for the common weal. The firsthas for its object the …
