Spontaneous photon emission in the Continuous Spontaneous Localization (CSL) model is studied one more time. In the CSL model each particle interacts with a noise field that induces the collapse of its wave function. As a consequence of…
We set up a general formalism for models of spontaneous wave function collapse with dynamics represented by a stochastic differential equation driven by general Gaussian noises, not necessarily white in time. In particular, we show that the…

We describe how a structured photonic medium controls the spontaneous emission rate from an excited quantum dot in the presence of electron-phonon coupling. We analyze this problem using a polaron transformed master equation and we consider…
We study the photon emission rate of a non relativistic charged particle interacting with an external classical noise through its position. Both the particle and the electromagnetic field are quantized. Under only the dipole approximation,…

We demonstrate a fundamental breakdown of the photonic spontaneous emission (SE) formula derived from Fermi's golden rule, in absorptive and amplifying media, where one assumes the SE rate scales with the local photon density of states, an…
We continue the analysis of models of spontaneous wave function collapse with stochastic dynamics driven by non-white Gaussian noise. We specialize to a model in which a classical "noise" field, with specified autocorrelator, is coupled to…
Models of spontaneous wave function collapse describe the quantum-to-classical transition by assuming a progressive breakdown of the superposition principle when the mass of the system increases, providing a well-defined phenomenology in…
Spontaneous emission (SE) from a two-level atom in a photonic crystal (PC) with anisotropic one-band model is investigated using the fractional calculus. Analytically solving the kinetic equation in terms of the fractional exponential…
We suggest a better mathematical method, fractional calculus, for studying the behavior of the atom-field interaction in photonic crystals. By studying the spontaneous emission of an atom in a photonic crystal with one-band isotropic model,…
We study the multi-periodic oscillations in the spontaneous emission rate of an atom in a medium with refractive index n sandwiched between two parallel mirrors. The oscillations are not obvious in the analytical formula for the rate…
Standards calculations by the Fermi's Golden rule involve approximations. These approximations could lead to deviations from the predictions of the standard model as discussed in another paper. In this paper we propose experimental searches…
Spontaneous emission (SE) rate of any light emitters directly scales with the locally available modes for photons. The emission rate can be modified, by changing the dielectric environment of light emitters. Generally cavities with modes in…
Collapse models including some external noise of unknown origin are routinely used to describe phenomena on the quantum-classical border; in particular, quantum measurement. Although containing nonlinear dynamics and thereby exposed to the…
We consider the one-dimensional motion of a particle randomly accelerated by Gaussian white noise on the line segment 0<x<1. The reflections of the particle from the boundaries at x=0 and 1 are inelastic, with coefficient of restitution r.…
We extend the theory of shot noise in coherent metals to shot noise in strange metals without quasiparticle excitations. This requires a generalization of the Boltzmann equation with a noise source to distribution functions which depend…
Exceptional points (EPs), singularities of non-Hermitian physics where complex spectral resonances degenerate, are one of the most exotic features of nonequilibrium open systems with unique properties. For instance, the emission rate of…
We study a recently proposed modified Schr\"{o}dinger equation having an added nonlinear term, which gives rise to disentanglement. The process of quantum measurement is explored for the case of a pair of coupled spins. We find that the…
Recently the photonic golden rule, which predicts that the spontaneous emission rate of an atom depends on the projected local density of states (LDOS), was shown to fail in an optical medium with a linear gain amplifier. We present a…
