Interaction-free measurement is shown to arise from the forward-scattered wave accompanying absorption: a "quantum silhouette" of the absorber. Accordingly, the process is not free of interaction. For a perfect absorber the…
Coherent backscattering is due to constructive interferences of reciprocal paths and leads to an enhancement of the intensity of a multiply scattered field near its source. To observe this enhancement an array of receivers is conventionally…

We deal with the time-harmonic acoustic waves scattered by a large number of small holes, of maximal radius $a, a<<1$, arbitrary (i.e. not necessarily periodically) distributed in a bounded part of a homogeneous background. We show that as…
The capability of optical resonators to extend the effective radiation-matter interaction length originates from a multipass effect, hence is intrinsically limited by the resonator quality factor. Here, we show that this constraint can be…
