Patients with epilepsy can manifest short, sub-clinical epileptic "bursts" in addition to full-blown clinical seizures. We believe the relationship between these two classes of events---something not previously studied…
We develop a unified theory for the nonadiabatic wave-packet dynamics of Bloch electrons subject to slowly varying spatial and temporal perturbations. Extending the conventional wave-packet ansatz to include interband contributions, we…

Adiabatic evolutions with a gap condition have, under a range of circumstances, exponentially small tails that describe the leaking out of the spectral subspace. Adiabatic evolutions without a gap condition do not seem to have this feature…
We present an approach for carrying out non-adiabatic molecular dynamics simulations of systems in which non-adiabatic transitions arise from the coupling between the classical atomic motions and a quasi-continuum of electronic quantum…
In this paper, we investigate a non-Hermitian Aubry-Andr\'e-Harper model characterized by power-law hoppings ($1/s^{a}$) and a quasi-periodic parameter $\beta$, where $a$ denotes the power-law index, $s$ represents the hopping distance, and…
Evolution of the parametric decay instability (PDI) of a circularly polarized Aflv\'en wave in a turbulent low-beta plasma background is investigated using 3D hybrid simulations. It is shown that the turbulence reduces the growth rate of…
We present a uniform asymptotic expansion of the wobbling kink to any order in the amplitude of the wobbling mode. The long-range behaviour of the radiation is described by matching the asymptotic expansions in the far field and near the…
We investigate the geometric phase of an atom inside an adiabatic radio frequency (rf) potential created from a static magnetic field (B-field) and a time dependent rf field. The spatial motion of the atomic center of mass is shown to give…
We propose an unconventional electron gun structure in which the emitter is located on a concave cathode surface with a non-uniform electric field. Such a design violates the intuition that an emitter should place close to a uniform…

A fundamental problem of out-of-equilibrium physics is the speed at which the order parameter grows upon crossing a phase transition. Here, we investigate the dynamics of ordering in a Fermi gas undergoing a density-wave phase transition…
Most microscopic descriptions of structural dynamics assume the Born-Oppenheimer separation, where electrons adjust adiabatically to ionic motion. When this separation breaks down, electronic and lattice degrees of freedom can evolve on…
Alfven Eigenmodes are destabilized at the DIII-D pedestal during transient beta drops in high poloidal beta discharges with internal transport barriers (ITBs), driven by n=1 external kink modes, leading to energetic particle losses. There…
