We introduce diffraction-based interaction-free measurements. In contrast with previous work where a set of discrete paths is engaged, good quality interaction-free measurements can be realized with a continuous set of paths, as is typical…
We consider finite approximations of a fractal generated by an iterated function system of affine transformations on $\mathbb{R}^d$ as a discrete set of data points. Considering a signal supported on this finite approximation, we propose a…
We introduce a new dynamical system that we call "tiling billiards," where trajectories refract through planar tilings. This system is motivated by a recent discovery of physical substances with negative indices of refraction. We…
Diffraction in time manifests itself as the appearance of probability-density fringes when a matter wave passes through an opaque screen with abrupt temporal variations of transmission properties. Here we analytically describe the…

In most theories of diffraction by a diaphragm, the amplitude of the diffracted wave, and hence the position wave function of the associated particle, is calculated directly without prior calculation of the quantum state. Few models express…

Single-shot coherent diffractive imaging (CDI) using intense XUV and soft X-ray pulses holds the promise to deliver information on the three dimensional shape as well as the optical properties of nano-scale objects in a single diffraction…
The standard way of modeling plasticity in polycrystals is by using the crystal plasticity model for single crystals in each grain, and imposing suitable traction and slip boundary conditions across grain boundaries. In this fashion, the…
We proposed a novel approach to coherent imaging of dynamic samples. The inter-frame similarity of the sample's local structures is found to be a powerful constraint in phasing a sequence of diffraction patterns. We devised a new image…
Fourier optics is a powerful and efficient tool for solving many diffraction problems, but relies on the assumption of scalar diffraction theory and ignores the three-dimensional structure and material properties of the diffracting element.…
Diffraction of coherent x-ray beams is treated through the Fractionnal Fourier transform. The transformation allow us to deal with coherent diffraction experiments from the Fresnel to the Fraunhofer regime. The analogy with the…
We extend a modal theory of diffraction by a set of parallel fibers to deal with the case of a hard boundary: that is a structure made for instance of air-holes inside a dielectric matrix. Numerical examples are given concerning some…
