A description of the spreading width of the Isobaric Analog Resonances in medium-heavy mass spherical nuclei is proposed within a combined approach. This latter consists in incorporating the "Coulomb description" of isospin-forbidden…
Slowing down, stopping, and reversing a signal is a core functionality for information processing. Here, we show that this functionality can be realized by tuning the dispersion of a periodic system through a dispersionless, or flat, band.…
The propagation-effects reshaping the excitation pulse are known to exhibit a strong influence on the high-harmonic generation (HHG) in solid-state media. Previous measurements showed that the mid-infrared pulse dynamics, most importantly…
Networks of heterogeneous oscillators are often seen to display collective synchronized oscillations, even when single elements of the network do not oscillate in isolation. It has been found that it is the diversity of the individual…
Inhomogeneous broadening is well known to hinder individual characteristics of emitters, supplanting the single-particle properties by their broader probability distribution. Here, we present an analysis of the emission spectra of…

Disorder is more the rule than the exception in natural and synthetic materials. Nonetheless, wave propagation within inhomogeneously disordered materials has received scant attention. We combine microwave experiments and theory to find the…

The propagation of small-amplitude inhomogeneous plane waves in an isotropic homogeneous incompressible Mooney--Rivlin material is considered when the material is maintained in a state of finite static homogeneous deformation. Disturbances…
