We report the first observation of coherent back-scattering (CBS) of light in a transverse photonic disorder. The CBS peak is recorded in the far-field, at a fixed propagation time set by our crystal length, and displays a contrast…

In this work a simple method to enforce the positivity-preserving property for general high-order conservative schemes is proposed. The method keeps the original scheme unchanged and detects critical numerical fluxes which may lead to…
A conservative flux postprocessing algorithm is presented for both steady-state and dynamic flow models. The postprocessed flux is shown to have the same convergence order as the original flux. An arbitrary flux approximation is projected…
We study the phenomenon of quantum backflow in tight-binding systems with complex couplings, considering different boundary conditions and lattice sizes. Backflow is an intrinsically non-classical effect where the density flux associated…
We show that the physical requirement of flux conservation can substitute for the usual matching conditions in point interactions. The study covers an arbitrary superposition of $\delta$ and $\delta'$ potentials on the real line and can be…

Coherent backscattering is a multiple scattering interference effect which enhances the diffuse reflection off a disordered sample in the backward direction. Classically, the enhanced intensity is twice the average background under well…
We consider the initial value problem for a scalar conservation law in one space dimension with a single spatial flux discontinuity, the so-called two-flux problem. We prove that a well-known front tracking algorithm has a convergence rate…
