The effect of short ray trajectories on the scattering statistics of wave chaotic systems
In many situations, the statistical properties of wave systems with chaotic
classical limits are well-described by random matrix theory. However,
applications of random matrix theory to scattering problems require
introduction of system specific information into the statistical model, such as
the introduction of the average scattering matrix in the Poisson kernel. Here
it is shown that the average impedance matrix, which also characterizes the
system-specific properties, can be expressed in terms of classical trajectories
that travel between ports and thus can be calculated semiclassically.
Theoretical results are compared with numerical solutions for a model
wave-chaotic system
A trace formula and high energy spectral asymptotics for the perturbed Landau Hamiltonian
A two-dimensional Schr\"odinger operator with a constant magnetic field
perturbed by a smooth compactly supported potential is considered. The spectrum
of this operator consists of eigenvalues which accumulate to the Landau levels.
We call the set of eigenvalues near the 'th Landau level an 'th
eigenvalue cluster, and study the distribution of eigenvalues in the 'th
cluster as . A complete asymptotic expansion for the eigenvalue
moments in the 'th cluster is obtained and some coefficients of this
expansion are computed. A trace formula involving the first eigenvalue moments
is obtained.Comment: 23 page
Controlled quantum evolutions and transitions
We study the nonstationary solutions of Fokker-Planck equations associated to
either stationary or nonstationary quantum states. In particular we discuss the
stationary states of quantum systems with singular velocity fields. We
introduce a technique that allows to realize arbitrary evolutions ruled by
these equations, to account for controlled quantum transitions. The method is
illustrated by presenting the detailed treatment of the transition
probabilities and of the controlling time-dependent potentials associated to
the transitions between the stationary, the coherent, and the squeezed states
of the harmonic oscillator. Possible extensions to anharmonic systems and mixed
states are briefly discussed and assessed.Comment: 24 pages, 4 figure
Inverse problem and Bertrand's theorem
The Bertrand's theorem can be formulated as the solution of an inverse
problem for a classical unidimensional motion. We show that the solutions of
these problems, if restricted to a given class, can be obtained by solving a
numerical equation. This permit a particulary compact and elegant proof of
Bertrand's theorem.Comment: 11 pages, 3 figure
On hybrid states of two and three level atoms
We calculate atom-photon resonances in the Wigner-Weisskopf model, admitting
two photons and choosing a particular coupling function. We also present a
rough description of the set of resonances in a model for a three-level atom
coupled to the photon field. We give a general picture of matter-field
resonances these results fit into.Comment: 33 pages, 12 figure
Integration through transients for Brownian particles under steady shear
Starting from the microscopic Smoluchowski equation for interacting Brownian
particles under stationary shearing, exact expressions for shear-dependent
steady-state averages, correlation and structure functions, and
susceptibilities are obtained, which take the form of generalized Green-Kubo
relations. They require integration of transient dynamics. Equations of motion
with memory effects for transient density fluctuation functions are derived
from the same microscopic starting point. We argue that the derived formal
expressions provide useful starting points for approximations in order to
describe the stationary non-equilibrium state of steadily sheared dense
colloidal dispersions.Comment: 17 pages, Submitted to J. Phys.: Condens. Matter; revised version

One-Dimensional Impenetrable Anyons in Thermal Equilibrium. II. Determinant Representation for the Dynamic Correlation Functions
We have obtained a determinant representation for the time- and
temperature-dependent field-field correlation function of the impenetrable
Lieb-Liniger gas of anyons through direct summation of the form factors. In the
static case, the obtained results are shown to be equivalent to those that
follow from the anyonic generalization of Lenard's formula.Comment: 16 pages, RevTeX
Nonlocal Electrodynamics of Rotating Systems
The nonlocal electrodynamics of uniformly rotating systems is presented and
its predictions are discussed. In this case, due to paucity of experimental
data, the nonlocal theory cannot be directly confronted with observation at
present. The approach adopted here is therefore based on the correspondence
principle: the nonrelativistic quantum physics of electrons in circular
"orbits" is studied. The helicity dependence of the photoeffect from the
circular states of atomic hydrogen is explored as well as the resonant
absorption of a photon by an electron in a circular "orbit" about a uniform
magnetic field. Qualitative agreement of the predictions of the classical
nonlocal electrodynamics with quantum-mechanical results is demonstrated in the
correspondence regime.Comment: 23 pages, no figures, submitted for publicatio
Critical strength of attractive central potentials
We obtain several sequences of necessary and sufficient conditions for the
existence of bound states applicable to attractive (purely negative) central
potentials. These conditions yields several sequences of upper and lower limits
on the critical value, , of the coupling constant
(strength), , of the potential, , for which a first
-wave bound state appears, which converges to the exact critical value.Comment: 18 page
Measurement of forward photon production cross-section in proton-proton collisions at = 13 TeV with the LHCf detector
In this paper, we report the production cross-section of forward photons in
the pseudorapidity regions of and ,
measured by the LHCf experiment with proton--proton collisions at =
13 TeV. The results from the analysis of 0.191 of data
obtained in June 2015 are compared to the predictions of several hadronic
interaction models that are used in air-shower simulations for
ultra-high-energy cosmic rays. Although none of the models agree perfectly with
the data, EPOS-LHC shows the best agreement with the experimental data among
the models.Comment: 21 pages, 4 figure
