A droplet bouncing on the surface of a vertically vibrating liquid bath can walk horizontally, guided by the waves it generates on each impact. This results in a self-propelled classical particle-wave entity. By using a one-dimensional…

A quantum finite multi-barrier system, with a periodic potential, is considered and exact expressions for its plane wave amplitudes are obtained using the Transfer Matrix method [10]. This quantum model is then associated with a stochastic…
Laser-induced molecular alignment is well understood within the framework of the Born-Oppenheimer (BO) approximation Without the BO approximation, however, the concept of molecular structure is lost, making alignment hard to define…
