This book is a summary of our 18-year period of joint work in the field of vortex dynamics in a
stratified rotating fluid under INTAS 94-3614 (1995–1997), INTAS/AIRBUS 04-80-7297 …

The physics of plasmas containing positive and negative ions is discussed with special
attention to the recently produced pair-ion plasma containing ions of equal mass and …

A tripolar vortex, three aligned vortices with alternate signs of polarity of rotation, has been
observed in a plasma for the first time. The tripolar vortex always appears with a deep …

Rare decays of beauty particles were studied in several charmless modes using the data
collected with the DELPHI detector at LEP from 1991 to 1994. These decays are mediated …

Studies of the properties of vortex motions in a stably stratified and fast rotating fluid that can
be described by the equation for the evolution of a potential vortex in the quasi-geostrophic …

The equilibrium states and low-frequency waves in rotating nonuniform self-gravitating fluids
are studied. The effect of a central object is included. Two-dimensional static configurations …

A family of semianalytical solutions is presented describing multipolar vortical structures with
zero total circulation in a variety of two-dimensional models. Analytics are used to determine …

A two-layer quasigeostrophic model is considered in the f-plane approximation. The stability
of a discrete axisymmetric vortex structure is analyzed for the case when the structure …

Electrostatic perturbations with low frequencies less than or comparable to the ion cyclotron
frequency are analyzed in bounded and inhomogeneous plasmas. The effects of an …

HYPER-I (High Density Plasma Experiment-I) is a linear device that combines a wide
operation range of plasma production with flexible diagnostics. The plasmas are produced …
