The Two-Rotor Model predicts two levels above the Scissors Modes with degenerate intrinsic energy. They have $J^{\pi}= 0^+,2^+$ and are referred to as overtones. Their energy is below threshold for nucleon emission, which should make them…
All the orbital M1 excitations, at both low and high energies, obtained from a rotationally invariant QRPA, represent the fragmented scissors mode. The high-energy M1 strength is almost purely orbital and resides in the region of the…
Using high-accuracy numerical relativity waveforms, we confirm the presence of numerous overtones of the $\ell=2$, $m=2$ quasinormal mode early in the ringdown of binary black hole mergers. We do this by demonstrating the stability of the…
The scissors mode, a magnetic dipole excitation-mainly orbital is usually discussed in terms of a transition from a J=0^{+} ground state to a J=1^{+} excited state. This is understandable because it follows from the way the experiment is…
Conclusive experimental evidence of a supersolid phase in any known condensed matter system is presently lacking. On the other hand, a supersolid phase has been recently predicted for a system of spinless bosons in continuous space,…
In light of the current (and future) gravitational wave detections, more sensitive tests of general relativity can be devised. Black hole spectroscopy has long been proposed as a way to test the no-hair theorem, that is, how closely an…
A two interacting rotors Hamiltonian is alternatively treated semi-classically and by a Dyson boson expansion method. The linearized equations of motion lead to dispersion equation for the wobbling frequency. One defined a ground band with…
The occurrence of scissors modes in crystals that have deformed ions in their cells has been predicted some time ago. The theoretical value of their energy is rather uncertain, however, ranging between 10 and a few tenths of eV, with the…
The excitation factors of black hole quasinormal modes quantify the $\textit{ease of excitation}$ of the quasinormal modes and are independent of the source of perturbation. We compute the excitation factors of Kerr black holes up to the…
We investigate how resonant excitation near exceptional points manifests in Kerr black hole ringdown waveforms and examine its extraction. Using waveforms generated by localized initial data, where quasinormal mode amplitudes are given…
This paper presents an analysis of near-resonant, ro-vibrational two-photon spectroscopy and the use of cavity ring-down spectroscopy for its detection. Expressions are derived for the photon absorption rate of a three-level system, correct…
Based on the neutron and proton degrees of freedom, the low-lying energy levels, the $E2$, $M1$ and $E0$ transition strengths of nucleus $^{124}$Te have been calculated by the neutron-proton interacting boson model. The calculated results…
We find the high overtones of gravitational and electromagnetic quasinormal spectrum of the Schwarzschild-de Sitter black hole. The calculations show that the real parts of the electromagnetic modes asymptotically approach zero. The…
The coupled dynamics of the scissors mode and the isovector giant quadrupole resonance is studied in a model with separable quadrupole-quadrupole residual interactions. The method of Wigner function moments is applied to derive the…
The effective potential is computed for two boson systems in one trap as a function of their two individual hyperadii and the distance between their centers. Zero-range interactions are used and only relative s-states are included.…
A heavy Higgs resonance is described in a representation-independent way which is valid for the whole energy range of 2 -> 2 scattering processes, including the asymptotic behavior at low and high energies. The low-energy theorems which…

We study the resonances of $2\times 2$ systems of one dimensional Schr\"odinger operators which are related to the mathematical theory of molecular predissociation. We determine the precise positions of the resonances with real parts below…
