The nature of orbital order-disorder transition has been studied in the La(1-x)Nd(x)MnO(3) (x = 0.0-1.0) series which covers the entire range between two end points - LaMnO(3) and NdMnO(3) - as well as in La(0.85)Nd(0.1)Sr(0.05)MnO(3) and…
We derive the quantum-mechanical master equation (generalized optical Bloch equation) for an atom in the vicinity of a flat dielectric surface. This equation gives access to the semiclassical radiation pressure force and the atomic momentum…
We perform a direct finite nucleus calculation of the partial width of a bound Delta isobar decaying through the non-mesonic decay mode, Delta N -> NN. This transition is modeled by the exchange of the long ranged pi meson and the shorter…

We comment on the recent Mainz "measurement" (PRL78 (1997) 606) of the $E2/M1$ ratio in the $N-\Delta$ electromagnetic transition. Analyzing the Mainz data using an effective Lagrangian approach, we find this ratio to be (-3.19$\pm$0.24)%.

The isovector M1 transitions between low-lying T=1 and T=0 states in odd-odd N=Z nuclei are analyzed. Simple analytical expressions for M1 transition strengths are derived within a single-j-shell approximation for both j=l+1/2 and j=l-1/2…
The discovery of orbital angular momentum (OAM) in light established a new degree of freedom by which to control not only its flow but also its interaction with matter. Here, we show that by shaping extremely sub-wavelength polariton modes,…

A new set of discrete ordinates is proposed for one-dimensional radiative transfer in spheres with central symmetry. The set is structured with un-normalized circular functions. This resulted in a conservative and closed set of discrete…
We use two-dimensional kinematic maps of simulated binary disc mergers to investigate the $\lambda_R$-parameter, which is a luminosity weighted measure of projected angular momentum per unit mass. This parameter was introduced to subdivide…
If the neutrino has a finite mass and a magnetic moment it would produce transition radiation when crossing the interface between two media. We found that the probability of transition radiation is larger by an order of magnitude using the…
The rotational constant parametrizes the relative spacing between a molecule's rotational energy levels. It depends on the molecule's classical moments of inertia, which, in all studies, are expressed by treating the constituent nuclei as…

When accelerated by a constant force in the lab frame, a classical charge experiences no self force. In this case, the particle radiates without dissipating its kinetic and potential energy. But what happens when the particle enters another…
