In an uncoupled lattice, the Kapchinskij-Vladimirskij (KV) distribution function first analyzed in 1959 is the only known exact solution of the nonlinear Vlasov-Maxwell equations for high-intensity beams including self-fields in a self-consistent manner. The KV solution is generalized here to high-intensity beams in a coupled transverse lattice using the recently developed generalized Courant-Snyder invariant for coupled transverse dynamics. This solution projects to a rotating, pulsating elliptical beam in transverse configuration space, determined by the generalized matrix envelope equation.

High energy density physics driven by intense heavy ion beams will be an important new project for the high intensity heavy-ion accelerator facility and the Dongjiang Laboratory. This paper presents an experimental investigation of ion beam-induced luminescence in a strong magnetic field background at HIRFL. The experiment utilizes a 430 MeV/u Kr ion beam with a pulse duration of 300 ns to bombard an AlO (Cr) solid target.

To satisfy the requirement of heavy ion synchrotron for intense highly charged ion beams, a comprehensive study of the afterglow mode was performed with two advanced electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) ion sources, i.e., a second-generation ECR ion source (LECR4) and a third-generation ECR ion source (SECRAL-II).

Article Synopsis
- High-intensity neutron beams at the European Spallation Source (ESS) create new opportunities for fundamental research, particularly in the search for dark matter.
- A new Ramsey neutron-beam experiment aims to detect ultralight axion dark matter by examining its effects on neutron spins, which would rotate based on their interaction with the dark matter halo.
- This experiment, conducted at the HIBEAM beamline, is projected to increase the sensitivity of axion-neutron coupling measurements by 2-3 orders of magnitude across a specific mass range (10^{-22} eV to 10^{-16} eV).
Article Synopsis
- - This research demonstrates how to create Poincaré polarization singularities that resemble tornadoes by combining two orthogonally polarized ring-Airy beams that possess orbital angular momentum (OAM).
- - The singularities are influenced by phase vortices that align with the high-intensity areas of one of the beams, causing them to evolve along twisting and shrinking paths as they travel.
- - They achieve angular acceleration rates exceeding 120 rad/mm, making these Poincaré tornadoes potentially useful in fields such as singular optics, wavefront manipulation, polarization engineering, and complex media imaging.

The biomechanical properties of cells and tissues play an important role in our fundamental understanding of the structures and functions of biological systems at both the cellular and subcellular levels. Recently, Brillouin microscopy, which offers a label-free spectroscopic means of assessing viscoelastic properties in vivo, has emerged as a powerful way to interrogate those properties on a microscopic level in living tissues. However, susceptibility to photodamage and photobleaching, particularly when high-intensity laser beams are used to induce Brillouin scattering, poses a significant challenge.
