We consider an example of implementation of a multi-barrel gyrotron. The simplest scheme of the multi-barrel gyrotron combines the advantages of both the canonical gyrotron and the gyrotron with the near-axis beam as the system of formation of helical electron beams and efficient selection of modes synchronous with high gyrofrequency harmonics, respectively, and is attractive from the viewpoint of applications that require moderate power levels. The design of a multi-barrel gyrotron with the possibility of simultaneous generation at frequencies of 263, 395, and 526 GHz is presented. Additionally, the possibility of generating the radiation at a frequency of 594 GHz is considered. Such frequencies are required for DNP/NMR facilities with proton Larmor frequencies of 400, 600, 800, and 900 MHz, respectively. Along with the conventional scheme of radiation output towards the collector, the features of the scheme with the radiation output toward the electron gun are considered.

We study theoretically the features of the spectra of high-order harmonics of laser radiation generated in an ensemble of aligned diatomic molecules outside the framework of the strong-field approximation. The studies were carried out on the basis of numerical calculations within the framework of a model given by a two-center generalization of the Yukawa potential. Influence of the interference of contributions from different electron trajectories and the ion core potential on the accuracy of extracting spectroscopic information about the state of the nuclear subsystem of a molecule using high temporal resolution nonlinear spectroscopy based on the analysis of multicenter effects in the spectra of high-order harmonics has been explored.

We consider excitation of electromagnetic oscillations of a homogeneous dielectric ball by a radial dipole, oscillations forming a periodic sequence of radio pulses. It is shown that at high frequencies the field distribution is close to the field distribution of the eigenoscillations corresponding to these frequencies, whereas the neighboring harmonics also have an impact at low frequencies. It is also shown that an action at low frequencies characterized by a low Q-factor is needed for exciting short radio pulses in the resonator.

A study of open quantum systems and dynamical regimes that emerge in such systems is an actively developing field of the theoretical and experimental physics. Although the bifurcation analysis and the theory of dynamical chaos are very important branches of nonlinear dynamics, their use for describing the processes occurring in open dissipative quantum systems has been restricted until recently. In this work, we present a review of recent results on the generalization of the methods of the oscillation theory for such systems. We present quantum analogs of the classical bifurcations, which are observed in the structural changes of the asymptotic density matrix, namely, the pitchfork bifurcation, saddle-node bifurcation, transition to quantum chaos via a period-doubling cascade, and the Neimark–Sacker bifurcation. We also consider numerical characteristics of dissipative quantum chaos. The largest quantum Lyapunov exponent, which is based on analyzing the divergence rate of the initially close quantum trajectories, allows one to numerically study the structure of the regular and chaotic domains of various open quantum systems. Numerical characteristics of dissipative quantum chaos, which can be observed in a physical experiment, are also considered. It is shown that the qualitatively different statistics of the distribution of times between the successive emissions of individual photons by the system take place for the regular and chaotic regimes in an open quantum cavity.

We show that the strong spatial inhomogeneity of absorption (the change from the maximum to the minimum value was more than 50 times on a spatial scale of the order of 200–300 μm), which was observed in our earlier studies of ultrapure synthetic quartz glasses and a synthetic quartz crystal at a wavelength of 1070 nm, can be related to an inhomogeneous spatial distribution of the redox state of iron traces. Using experimental data on absorption of metal impurities in the studied glasses, we present a calculation of the iron ion concentration, which is of the order of a few ppb. This is several times better than the limit of detection of the mass spectrometry method used for certification of ultrapure quartz glasses. Based on the results of the mass spectrometry measurements of concentrations given by manufacturers and the values of the maximum (10⁻⁵ cm⁻¹) and minimum (10⁻⁷ cm⁻¹) absorption coefficient we have measured, we calculated the maximum possible concentrations of the Fe²⁺ and Cu²⁺ ions and OH groups in quartz glasses and hydrothermal synthetic crystalline quartz.

We present the results of theoretical and experimental studies of the surface-wave K_a-band resonators which are formed by sections of cylindrical waveguides with single-period wall corrugations. The electrodynamic characteristics of such resonance cavities are analyzed within the quasioptical approach and three-dimensional simulation by the finite-difference time-domain method. The results of the theoretical analysis agree quite well with the experimentally measured frequency dependences of the reflection coefficients, which demonstrate the existence of surface modes with different numbers of longitudinal field variations. The measured Q-factors and frequencies of the above-specified modes corresponded well to the calculated values. In order to perform “cold” electrodynamic tests, wideband waveguide converters of the TE mode of the standard rectangular waveguide to the TM mode of an oversized cylindrical waveguide, which have a sufficiently low level of ohmic loss at a conversion efficiency exceeding 95% in the 34–40 GHz frequency range, were manufactured by the the 3D printing method.
