The Ornstein-Zernike equation is a powerful tool in liquid state theory for predicting structural and thermodynamic properties of fluids. Combined with a suitable closure, it has been shown to reproduce e.g. the static structure factor,…
We review exact formalisms for describing the dynamics of liquids in terms of static parameters. We discuss how these formalisms are prone to suffer from imposing restrictions that appear to adhere to common sense but which are overly…
We study relativistic scattering when one only has access to a subset of the particles, using the language of quantum measurement theory. We give an exact, non-perturbative formula for the von Neumann entanglement entropy of an apparatus…
The main purpose of scattering experiments is to unveil the underlying structure of the colliding particles and their interaction. Typically one measures scattering observables (cross sections and polarizations) at discrete angles and…
This thesis explores the evolution of liquid-state theories based on the Ornstein-Zernike (OZ) equation, summarizing the foundational methods developed by Baxter, Lebowitz, Wertheim, and others. A unifying feature of these approaches is…

The Ornstein-Zernike equation is solved for the hard-sphere and square-well fluids using a diverse selection of closure relations; the attraction range of the square-well is chosen to be $\lambda=1.5.$ In particular, for both fluids we…

Converting neutron scattering data to real-space time-dependent structures can only be achieved through suitable models, which is particularly challenging for geometrically disordered structures. We address this problem by introducing…
We solve a physically significant extension of a classic problem in the theory of diffusion, namely the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process [G. E. Ornstein and L. S. Uhlenbeck, Phys. Rev. 36, 823, (1930)]. Our generalised Ornstein-Uhlenbeck systems…
We present a closed analytical formula for the scattering intensity from charged hard sphere fluids with any arbitrary number of components. Our result is an extension to ionic systems of Vrij's analogous expression for uncharged hard…
Electron scattering on liquid samples has been enabled recently by the development of ultrathin liquid sheet technologies. The data treatment of liquid-phase electron scattering has been mostly reliant on methodologies developed for gas…
The molecular density functional theory of fluids provides an exact theory for computing solvation free energies in implicit solvents. One of the reasons it has not received nearly as much attention as quantum density functional theory for…
A discrete-event simulation approach which provides a cause-and-effect description of many experiments with photons and neutrons exhibiting interference and entanglement is applied to a recent single-neutron experiment that tests…
The transport of charged particles or photons in a scattering medium can be modelled with a Boltzmann equation. The mathematical treatment for scattering in such scenarios is often simplified if evaluated in a frame where the scattering…
We prove several scattering results for dispersion-managed nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations. In particular, we establish small-data scattering for both `intercritical' and `mass-subcritical' powers by suitable modifications of the standard…
