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…
By applying a microscopic gauge-invariant kinetic theory in $d$-wave superconductors, we analytically derive the energy spectra of the breathing Higgs mode and, in particular, rotating Higgs mode that is unique for the $d$-wave order…
If massive invisible particles are pair-produced in a three-body decay, then the energy distribution of the other (visible) product is sensitive to the mass of the invisible pair. We use this fact in the context of a Higgs boson decaying…
The isoscalar monopole excitation of 4He is studied within a few-body ab initio approach. We consider the transition density to the low-lying and narrow 0+ resonance, as well as various sum rules and the strength energy distribution itself…
The role of phonons in cuprates remains controversial, with their complex lattice structure complicating the investigation. Here, we identify phonon modes originating from charge reservoir and superconducting layers of…
Ground state instabilities of the spin-boson model is studied in this work. The existence of sequential ground state instabilities is shown analytically for arbitrary detuning in the two-spin system. In this model, extra discontinuities of…
Three bosonic, spin-polarized atoms in a spherical oscillator potential constitutes the simplest nontrivial Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC). The present paper develops the tools needed to understand the nature of the complete J=0 energy…
We construct a double degenerate supersymmetry in one dimensional quantum mechanics. Here the energy levels satisfy the conditions $E_{0,1}^{((-)}=0$ and $E_{n,n+1}^{(+)}=E_{n+2,n+3}^{(-)}$.The corresponding SUSY Hamiltonians$(H^{(\pm)}$)…
In certain cuprates, a spin 1 resonance mode is prominent in the magnetic structure measured by neutron scattering. It has been proposed that this mode is responsible for significant features seen in other spectroscopies, such as…
Outer resonances are studied as one type of quasinormal modes in two-dimensional dielectric cavities with refractive index $n>1$. The outer resonances can be verified as the resonances which survive only outside the cavity in the small…
We present a new strategy to uncover light, quasi-degenerate Higgsinos, a likely ingredient in a natural supersymmetric model. Our strategy focuses on Higgsinos with inter-state splittings of O(5-50) GeV that are produced in association…
Several classical analogues of electromagnetically induced transparency in metamaterials have been demonstrated. A simple two-resonator model can describe their absorption spectrum qualitatively, but fails to provide information about the…
We identify a new kind of elementary excitations, spin-rotons, in the doped Mott insulator. They play a central role in deciding the superconducting transition temperature Tc, resulting in a simple Tc formula,Tc=Eg/6, with Eg as the…
Common wisdom asserts that bound excitons cannot form in high-dimensional (d>1) metallic structures because of their overwhelming screening and unavoidable resonance with nearby continuous bands. Strikingly, here we illustrate that this…
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,…
Lattice QCD calculations of the $2s$ radial excitation of the nucleon place the state at an energy of approximately 1.9 GeV, raising the possibility that it is associated with the $N1/2^+(1880)$ and $N1/2^+(1710)$ resonances through mixing…
Low energy $\pi^+$ emission in hypernuclear weak decays is studied in the soft pion limit. It is found that the $\pi^+$ decay amplitude is dominated by the $\Delta I=3/2$ part of nonmesonic weak decays according to the soft pion theorem.…
The scattering of pions on a dibaryon configuration is analyzed within the $SU(2)$ Skyrme model. It is shown that this model leads to a low-lying $(J^P,I)= (0^-,2)$ resonance. The possibility that this resonance corresponds to one proposed…
The spectroscopic study of black hole quasinormal modes in gravitational-wave ringdown observations is hindered by our ignorance of which modes should dominate astrophysical signals for different binary configurations, limiting tests of…
The flow of shape eigenmodes of the small fluctuation operator around BPS 2-vortex solutions is calculated, as a function of the intervortex separation $2d$. For the rotationally-invariant 2-vortex, with $d = 0$, there are three discrete…
