Dynamic behaviour of a boson gas near the condensation transition in the symmetric phase is analyzed with the use of an effective large-scale model derived from time-dependent Green functions at finite temperature. A renormalization-group analysis shows that the scaling exponents of critical dynamics of the effective multi-charge model coincide with those of the standard model A. The departure of this result from the description of the superfluid transition by either model E or F of the standard phenomenological stochastic models is corroborated by the analysis of a generalization of model F, which takes into account the effect of compressible fluid velocity. It is also shown that, contrary to the single-charge model A, there are several correction exponents in the effective model, which are calculated at the leading order of the ɛ= 4 − d expansion.

The magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence appears in engineering laboratory flows and is a common phenomenon in natural systems, e.g. stellar and planetary interiors and atmospheres and the interstellar medium. The applications in engineering are particularly interesting due to the recent advancement of tokamak devices, reaching very high plasma temperatures, thus giving hope for the production of thermonuclear fusion power. In the case of astrophysical applications, perhaps the main feature of the MHD turbulence is its ability to generate and sustain large-scale and small-scale magnetic fields. However, a crucial effect of the MHD turbulence is also the enhancement of large-scale diffusion via interactions of small-scale pulsations, i.e. the generation of the so-called turbulent viscosity and turbulent magnetic diffusivity, which typically exceed by orders of magnitude their molecular counterparts. The enhanced resistivity plays an important role in the turbulent dynamo process. Estimates of the turbulent electromotive force (EMF), including the so-called $\alpha$ -effect responsible for amplification of the magnetic energy and the turbulent magnetic diffusion are desired. Here, we apply the renormalization group technique to extract the final expression for the turbulent EMF from the fully nonlinear dynamical equations (Navier–Stokes, induction equation). The simplified renormalized set of dynamical equations, including the equations for the means and fluctuations, is derived and the effective turbulent coefficients such as the viscosity, resistivity, the $\alpha$ -coefficient and the Lorentz-force coefficients are explicitly calculated. The results are also used to demonstrate the influence of magnetic fields on energy and helicity spectra of strongly turbulent flows, in particular the magnetic energy spectrum.

We propose various properties of renormalization group beta functions for vector operators in relativistic quantum field theories. We argue that they must satisfy compensated gauge invariance, orthogonality with respect to scalar beta functions, Higgs-like relation among anomalous dimensions and a gradient property. We further conjecture that nonrenormalization holds if and only if the vector operator is conserved. The local renormalization group analysis guarantees the first three within power counting renormalization. We verify all the conjectures in conformal perturbation theories and holography in the weakly coupled gravity regime.

Biomass such as agriculture waste and urban waste are enormous potency as energy resources instead of enviromental problem. organic waste can be converted into energy in the form of liquid fuel, solid, and syngas by using of pyrolysis technique. Pyrolysis process can yield higher liquid form when the process can be drifted into fast and flash response. It can be solved by using microwave heating method. This research is started from developing an experimentation laboratory apparatus of microwave-assisted pyrolysis of biomass energy conversion system, and conducting preliminary experiments for gaining the proof that this method can be established for driving the process properly and safely. Modifying commercial oven into laboratory apparatus has been done, it works safely, and initial experiments have been carried out, process yields bio-oil and charcoal shortly, several parameters are achieved. Some further experiments are still needed for more detail parameters. Theresults may be used to design small-scale continuous model of productionsystem, which then can be developed into large-scale model that applicable for comercial use.
