We consider the repulsive Vlasov-Poisson system in dimension $d \geq 4$. A sufficient condition on the decay rate of the associated electric field is presented that guarantees the scattering and determination of the complete asymptotic…
The spatial Fourier spectrum of the electron density distribution in a finite 1D system and the distribution function of electrons over single-particle states are studied in detail to show that there are two universal features in their…
The propagation of light in a scattering medium is described as the motion of a special kind of a Brownian particle on which the fluctuating forces act only perpendicular to its velocity. This enforces strictly and dynamically the…
We derive conditions for a nonholonomic system subject to nonlinear constraints (obeying Chetaev's rule) to preserve a smooth volume form. When applied to affine constraints, these conditions dictate that a basic invariant density exists if…
We develop theory for fluctuations in atom number and spin within finite-sized cells of a spinor Bose-Einstein condensate. This theory provides a model of measurements that can be performed in current experiments using finite resolution in…
The diffraction spectrum of coherent waves scattered from fractal supports is calculated exactly. The fractals considered are of the class generated iteratively by successive dilations and translations, and include generalizations of the…
It is shown that evolution of an open quantum system can be exactly described in terms of wave function which obeys Schrodinger equation with randomly varying parameters whose statistics is universally determined by separate dynamics of the…
Motivated by recent experimental implementations of artificial gauge fields for gases of cold atoms, we study the scattering properties of particles that are subjected to time-periodic Hamiltonians. Making use of Floquet theory, we focus on…
We construct a one-dimensional quasicrystal by placing scatterers at positions $\chi_n = \ln(p_n)$, the logarithms of the primes. This map compresses the primes to approximately constant density and yields a Fourier transform that is…
A theory of electromagnetic (EM) wave scattering by many small particles of an arbitrary shape is developed. The particles are perfectly conducting or impedance. For a small impedance particle of an arbitrary shape an explicit analytical…
The conformational states of a semiflexible polymer enclosed in a compact domain of typical size $a$ are studied as stochastic realizations of paths defined by the Frenet equations under the assumption that stochastic "curvature" satisfies…
We consider scattering exponents arising in small-angle scattering from power-law polydisperse surface and mass fractals. It is shown that a set of fractals, whose sizes are distributed according to a power-law, can change its fractal…
Quantum fluctuations in the density of a fluid with a linear phonon dispersion relation are studied. In particular, we treat the changes in these fluctuations due to non-classical states of phonons and to the presence of boundaries. These…
We studied numerically the validity of the fluctuation theorem, introduced by Evans,Cohen and Morris and proved by Gallavotti and Cohen, for a 2-dimensional system of particles maintained in a steady shear flow by Maxwell daemon boundary…
We study many interacting Brownian particles under a tilted periodic potential. We numerically measure the linear response coefficient of the density field by applying a slowly varying potential transversal to the tilted direction. In…
In this paper we examine necessary conditions for an inhomogeneity to be non-scattering, or equivalently, by negation, sufficient conditions for it to be scattering. These conditions are formulated in terms of the regularity of the boundary…
A new functional for the entropy that is asymptotically correct both in the high and low density limits is proposed. The new form is [ S=S^{(id)}+S^{(ln)}+S^{(r)}+S^{(c)} ] where the new term S^{(c)} depends on the p-bodies density…
The accumulation of small particles is analyzed in stationary flows through channels of variable width at small Reynolds number. The combined influence of pressure, viscous drag and thermal fluctuations is described by means of a…

Zero point density fluctuations in a liquid and their potential observation by light scattering are discussed. It is suggested that there are two distinct effects of interest. One gives an average number of scattered photons, and depends…
