We investigate for the first time, both experimentally and theoretically, low-frequency terahertz (THz) emission from the ambient air ionized by a two-color femtosecond laser pulse containing, besides the fundamental-frequency main field, a weak additional field tunable near the frequency of the half harmonic. By controlling the mutual polarization and the powers of the main and additional fields, we determine the dependences of the THz power and polarization on the parameters of the two-color pulse. We also discover the resonantlike dependence of the THz yield on the frequency detuning of the additional field. The analytical formulas obtained using the model of the free-electron residual current density give an excellent agreement with the experimental results.

Gas bubbles, commonly used in medical ultrasound (US), witness advancements with nanobubbles (NB), providing improved capabilities over microbubbles (MB). NBs offer enhanced penetration into capillaries and the ability to extravasate into tumors following systemic injection, alongside prolonged circulation and persistent acoustic contrast. Low-frequency insonation (<1 MHz) with NBs holds great potential in inducing significant bioeffects, making the monitoring of their acoustic response critical to achieving therapeutic goals.

Transducers used in acoustic logging while drilling (ALWD) must be mounted on a drill collar, and their radiation performance is dependent on the employed mounting method. Herein, the complex transmitting voltage response of a while-drilling (WD) monopole acoustic source was calculated through finite-element harmonic-response analysis. Subsequently, the acoustic pressure waveform radiated by the source driven by a half-sine excitation voltage signal was calculated using the complex transmitting voltage response.

In this paper we investigate the Fourier coefficients of harmonic Maass forms of negative half-integral weight. We relate the algebraicity of these coefficients to the algebraicity of the coefficients of certain canonical meromorphic modular forms of positive even weight with poles at Heegner divisors. Moreover, we give an explicit formula for the coefficients of harmonic Maass forms in terms of periods of certain meromorphic modular forms with algebraic coefficients.
