Wavefield focusing is often achieved by Time-Reversal Mirrors, where wavefields emitted by a source located at the focal point are evaluated at a closed boundary and sent back, after Time-Reversal, into the medium from that boundary.…

As is well known, the sound-speed profile has significant effects on underwater acoustic sound propagation. These effects can be quantified by normal-mode models, for example. The basic case is a laterally homogeneous medium, for which the…
We present molecular dynamics simulations of the motion of a single rigid rod in a disordered static 2d-array of disk-like obstacles. Two different configurations have been used for the latter: A completely random one, and which thus has an…

Collective effects in the interaction of light with ensembles of identical scatterers play an important role in many fields of physics. However, often the term ``identical'' is not accurate due to the presence of hyperfine fields which…
