    • Quantum Lattice Representation for the Curl Equations of Maxwell Equations 

      Vahala, George; Hawthorne, John; Vahala, Linda; Ram, Abhay K.; Soe, Min (Taylor & Francis, 2021-11)
      A quantum lattice representation (QLA) is devised for the initial value problem of one-dimensional (1D) propagation of an electromagnetic disturbance in a scalar dielectric medium satisfying directly only the two curl ...

    • Building a Three-Dimensional Quantum Lattice Algorithm for Maxwell Equations 

      Vahala, George; Valhala, Linda; Soe, Min; Ram, Abhay K. (Taylor & Francis, 2020-09)
      A three-dimensional quantum lattice algorithm (QLA) for electromagnetic wave propagation is being developed by stitching together the individual QLAs for 1D wave propagation in the three orthogonal Cartesian directions.

    • Electron heating in kinetic-Alfvén-wave turbulence 

      Zhou, Muni; Liu, Zhuo; Loureiro, Nuno F. (PNAS, 2023-04)
      We report analytical and numerical investigations of sub-ion-scale turbulence in low-beta plasmas using a rigorous reduced kinetic model. We show that efficient electron heating occurs, and is primarily due to Landau ...
