Bulk and surface plane electromagnetic waves in anisotropic media

A new analytical approach to description of electromagnetic waves in nonmagnetic anisotropic media is presented. Amplitudes of their reflection and refraction at interfaces and also reflection and transmission of plane parallel plates are derived. Beam splitting at reflection, and creation of surface waves at the interfaces are studied. A simple laboratory demonstration of the beam splitting is proposed. D'yakonov surface waves, their description and observation are discussed.

A model of the ball lightning

The ball lightning is supposed to be a shock wave of a point explosion frozen with electrostriction forces of the internal strong laser discharge. The life time of the ball with modest parameters is calculated.

A proposal of a UCN experiment to check an earthquake waves model

Elastic waves with transverse polarization inside incidence plane can create longitudinal surface wave (LSW) after reflection from a free surface. At a critical incidence angle this LSW accumulates energy density, which can be orders of magnitude higher than energy density of the incident transverse wave. A specially arranged vessel for storage of ultracold neutrons (UCN) can be used to verify this effect.

Uncertainty Relations (UR) Have Nothing to do with Quantum Mechanics (QM)

Uncertainty relations are shown to have nothing specific for quantum mechanics, being the general property valid for arbitrary function. A wave function of a particle having precisely defined position and momentum in QM simultaneously is demonstrated. Interference on two slits in a screen is shown to exist in classical mechanics. A nonlinear classical system of equations replacing QM Schrödinger equation is suggested. This approach is shown to have nothing in common with Bohmian mechanics.
