We investigate analytically and numerically correlation functions of the phase of light waves that propagate through turbulent media. We examine the case of strong scintillations that occur at large values of the Rytov dispersion,…

We consider bosonic atoms in an optical lattice at integer filling, tuned to the superfluid-Mott insulator critical point, and coupled to a single, mobile impurity atom of a different species. This setup is inspired by current experiments…

We develop a formalism based on a time-dependent wave-function ansatz to study correlations of photons emitted from a collection of two-level quantum emitters. We show how to simulate the system dynamics and evaluate the intensity of the…

In the foundation of quantum mechanics, the spatial dimensions of electron wavepacket are understood only in terms of an expectation value - the probability distribution of the particle location. One can still inquire how the quantum…
