The hole probability, i.e., the probability that a region is void of particles, is a benchmark of correlations in many body systems. We compute analytically this probability $P(R)$ for a spherical region of radius $R$ in the case of $N$…

We study the dynamic response of a two-dimensional system of itinerant fermions in the vicinity of a uniform ($\mathbf{Q}=0$) Ising nematic quantum critical point of $d-$wave symmetry. The nematic order parameter is not a conserved…
We consider a system consisting of a particle in the harmonic approximation, having frequency $\bar{\omega}$, coupled to a scalar field inside a spherical reflecting cavity of diameter $L$. By introducing {\it dressed} coordinates we define…
The Thomas-Fermi approximation for an atomic wavefunction is used to calculate the interaction of a neutron spin with the atomic electric field, either through motional magnetic (v x E) or possibly electric (due to the possible existence of…
Fermi's golden rule applies to a situation in which a single quantum state $|\psi\rangle$ is coupled to a near-continuum. This "quasi-continuum coupling" structure results in a rate equation for the population of $|\psi\rangle$. Here we…
Nucleon spin fluctuations in a dense medium reduce the ``naive'' values of weak interaction rates (neutrino opacities, neutrino emissivities). We extend previous studies of this effect to the degenerate case which is appropriate for neutron…
We study quantum degenerate Fermi gases of ${^6}$Li atoms at high densities ($10^{15}$ cm$^{-3}$) and observe elastic and inelastic $p$-wave collisions far away from any Feshbach resonance. $P$-wave evaporation reaches temperatures of…
