We report on a recent global VLBI experiment in which we study the scatter broadening of pulsars in the spatial and time domain simultaneously. Depending on the distribution of scattering screen(s), geometry predicts that the less spatially…
The sizes of pulsar radio pulses in the plane of the sky are determined. This is important not only in relation to the possibility of directly resolving the radio pulses spatially, but also for verifying and placing constraints on existing…
It is shown that inhomogeneous broadening of the spectral line of active impurities may sustain simultaneously parity (P) and time (T) symmetries of a medium, in a finite range of field frequencies, what is forbidden by the causality…
Free-space propagation can be described as a shearing of the Wigner distribution function in the spatial coordinate; this shearing is linear in paraxial approximation but assumes a more complex shape for wide-angle propagation. Integration…
Bubble-based metamaterials have been extensively studied both theoretically and experimentally thanks to their simple geometry and their ability to manipulate acoustic waves. The latter is partly dependent on the structural characteristics…
Quantum light propagation through turbulent atmosphere has become a subject of intensive research, spanning both theoretical and experimental studies. This interest is driven by its important applications in free-space quantum…
This paper considers scattering screens that have arbitrary spatial variations of scattering strength transverse to the line of sight, including screens that are spatially well confined, such as disks and filaments. We calculate the…
The reflection and transmission of a few-cycle laser pulse impinging on two parallel thin metal layers have been analyzed. The two layers, with a thickness much smaller than the skin depth of the incoming radiation field, are represented by…
Because the desire to explore opaque materials is ordinarily frustrated by multiple scattering of waves, attention has focused on the transmission matrix of the wave field. This matrix gives the fullest account of transmission and…
The multiple scattering of coherent light is a problem of both fundamental and applied importance. In optics, phase conjugation allows spatial focussing and imaging through a multiply scattering medium; however, temporal control is…
Reprocessing of X-ray pulsar radiation by the atmosphere of a companion in a binary system may result in reflected pulse radiation with a period of the pulses equal to the period of the pulsar under suitable conditions. In this paper the…
In radiation processes such as a transition radiation, diffraction radiation, etc. based on relativistic electrons passing through or near an opaque screen, the electron self-field is partly shadowed after the screen over a distance of the…
When a plane electromagnetic wave impinges upon a diffraction grating or other periodic structures, reflected and transmitted waves propagate away from the structure in different radiation channels. A diffraction anomaly occurs when the…
Recent advances in the field of attosecond science hold the promise of tracking electronic processes at the shortest space and time scales. Imaging methods that combine attosecond temporal with nanometer spatial resolution are currently out…
Pulsar radio emission and its polarization are observed to evolve with frequency. This frequency dependence is key to the emission mechanism and the structure of the radio beam. With the new Ultra-Wideband receiver (UWL) on the Parkes radio…
In this paper we theoretically study propagation of steady state ultrashort pulse in dissipative medium. We considered two cases (i) medium consists of lossy metallic nanostructures embedded into a gain material and (ii) the gain material…
We study the diffraction phase of different orders via the Dyson expansion series, for ultracold atomic gases scattered by a standing-wave pulse. As these diffraction phases are not observable in a single pulse scattering process, a…
Given the wide range of applications of time-domain spectroscopy, and particularly THz time-domain spectroscopy, the modelling of a probe pulse propagating through a multilayered structure is often required. Due to the fact that the…
