When subjected to monochromatic incident light a nanoparticle will emit light which then interferes with the incident beam. With sufficient contrast and sufficiently close to the particle this interference pattern may be recorded with a…
The inverse acoustic scattering of point objects using multi-frequency sparse measurements are studied. The objects may be a sum of point sources or point like scatterers. We show that the locations and scattering strengths of the point…

We consider the unique determinations of impenetrable obstacles or diffraction grating profiles in $\mathbb{R}^3$ by a single far-field measurement within polyhedral geometries. We are particularly interested in the case that the scattering…
The existence of self-bound strange stars is a long-standing mystery in astrophysics. Future astrophysical data, even with improved precision, may not allow us to discriminate them from neutron stars, given the uncertainties in…
Inspection of the periodograms of TESS delta Scuti stars indicates that there is little, if any, similarity between the frequencies of stars in the same region of the H-R diagram. This is difficult to understand because pulsation models…

Object localization through active elastic waves is a crucial technology, but generally requires a transducer array with complex hardware. Although computational sensing has been demonstrated to be able to overcome the short-comings of…
Cross-match spatially clusters and organizes several astronomical point-source measurements from one or more surveys. Ideally, each object would be found in each survey. Unfortunately, the observation conditions and the objects themselves…
Vortex singularities in speckle patterns formed from random superpositions of waves are an inevitable consequence of destructive interference and are consequently generic and ubiquitous. Singularities are topologically stable, meaning they…
We numerically investigate the sensitivity of the scattered wave field to perturbations in the shape of a scattering body illuminated by an incident plane wave. This study is motivated by recent work on the inverse problem of reconstructing…
