A reply to the comment by S. Friedemann et al. [arXiv:1207.0536] on our article [Phys. Rev. Lett. 106, 137002 (2011), arXiv:1012.0303].
The argument of Rudolph and Sanders, while technically correct, raises conceptual problems. In particular, if carried to its logical conclusion, it would disallow the use in our theories of any time $t$ with implied resolution beyond that…
The aim of this letter is to analyze the effect on decoherence of the randomness of the coupling coefficients involved in the interaction Hamiltonian. By studying the spin-bath model with computer simulations, we show that such randomness…
We derive quantum kinetic equations for scalar fields undergoing coherent evolution either in time (coherent particle production) or in space (quantum reflection). Our central finding is that in systems with certain space-time symmetries,…
Qualitativ arguments are presented which show the incompatibility of the positive results obtaned in experiments on the gravitational redshift of photones and in experiments investigating the behavior of clocks in the gravitational field.
Refraction, interference, and diffraction serve as distinguishing features for wave-like phenomena. While they are normally associated only with a purely spatial wave-propagation pattern, analogs to interference and diffraction involving…
We present one- and two-photon diffraction and interference experiments involving parametric down-converted photon pairs. By controlling the divergence of the pump beam in parametric down-conversion, the diffraction-interference pattern…
We present a counter example to a theorem given by Amir {\em et al.} J. Math. Phys. {\bf 35}, 3005 (1994). We also comment on a misleading statements of the same reference.
We briefly comment on the paper "On the correlation between the local dark matter and stellar velocities" (Bozorgnia et al. 2018), which purports to test our previous claims regarding the correlation of stellar and dark matter kinematics…
Coherent effects manifested in light scattering from cold, optically dense and disordered atomic systems are reviewed from a primarily theoretical point of view. Development of the basic theoretical tools is then elaborated through several…
We exhibit a local-hidden-variable model in agreement with the results of the two-photon coincidence experiment made by Torgerson et al. [Phys. Lett. A 204 (1995) 323]. The existence of any such model shows that the experiment does not…
Results of the experiments carried out in [Shahriar S. Afshar, Proc. SPIE bf 5866 (2005) 229-244] and [Shahriar S. Afshar, AIP Cof. Proc. 810, (2006) 294-299] are reviewed and their interpretation by the authors is questioned. Arguments are…
We proposed in a previous paper [Opt. Commun. 228, 33 (2003)] a modified radiative transfer equation to describe radiative transfer in a medium with a spatially varying refractive index. The present paper is devoted to the demonstration…
We study the classical optics effects known as Goos-H\"anchen (GH) and Imbert-Fedorov (IF) shifts, occurring when reflecting a bounded light beam from a planar surface, by using a quantum-mechanical formalism. This new approach allows us to…
We investigate collisional shifts of spectral lines involving excited hydrogenic states, where van der Waals coefficients have recently been shown to have large numerical values when expressed in atomic units. Particular emphasis is laid on…
The analogue of temporal coherence resonance for spatial degrees of freedom is reported. Specifically, we show that spatiotemporal noise is able to optimally extract an intrinsic spatial scale in nonlinear media close to (but before) a…

We develop a fully spatio-temporal numerical model, based on stochastic simulations, simulating the generation of spatio-temporal multimode spontaneous parametric down conversion, the propagation of the signal and idler beams through a…
A recent paper by Hartle [Phys. Rev. D 51, 1800 (1995)] proposes a definition of "spacetime information" - the information available about a quantum system's boundary conditions in the various sets of decohering histories it may display -…
Nowadays, the calculation of the Galactic Cosmic Rays diffusion coefficient with direct microscopic numerical simulations is a widespread approach. In this work, we investigated the numerical limits for such calculations and demonstrated…
