Particles dispersed in a liquid crystal above the nematic-isotropic phase transition are wetted by a surface-induced corona of paranematic order. Such coronas give rise to pronounced two-particle interactions. In this article, we report…

It has recently been suggested that in a brane world scenario with large extra dimensions, short distance gravitational interactions can enhance the dark matter scattering cross-section in a velocity dependent way. Such a modification may…
The pervasive presence in space of a flux of high-speed, electrically uncharged dark matter particles is examined here for potential consequences. Dark matter interactions with ordinary matter are considered, and a model of the dark matter…
Dark matter self-interactions have important implications for the distributions of dark matter in the Universe, from dwarf galaxies to galaxy clusters. We present benchmark models that illustrate characteristic features of dark matter that…
We investigate two key representative semiclassical approaches for propagating resonant energy transfer between a pair of electronic two-level systems (donor and acceptor) with coupled Maxwell-Liouville equations. On the one hand, when the…

The contact interaction is often used in modeling ultracold atomic gases, although it leads to pathological behavior arising from the divergence of the many-body wavefunction when two particles coalesce. This makes it difficult to use this…
The real Hilbert space formalism developed within the quaternionic quantum mechanics ($\mathbb H$QM) is fully applied to the simple model of the autonomous particle. This framework permits novel insights within the usual description of the…
When applied to a single nucleon, nuclear energy density functionals may yield a non-vanishing internal energy thus implying that the nucleon is interacting with itself. It is shown how to avoid this unphysical feature for semi-local…
This paper theoretically analyzes the behavior of an atom driven by a strong electro-magnetic field. Moreover, besides traditional quantum mechanics method, we also investigate semiclassical approaches to this problem. We first performed…
We explore the possible phases of a condensed dark matter (DM) candidate taken to be in the form of a fermion with a Yukawa coupling to a scalar particle, at zero temperature but at finite density. This theory essentially depends on only…
Closed orbit theory is generalized to the semiclassical calculation of cross-correlated recurrence functions for atoms in external fields. The cross-correlation functions are inverted by a high resolution spectral analyzer to obtain the…
In this work, we discuss the relation between the strength of the self-interaction of dark matter particles and the predicted properties of the inner density distributions of dark matter haloes. We present the results of $N$-body…
It is plausible that the dark matter particles have non-gravitational interactions among themselves. If such self interactions are large enough, they could leave an imprint on the morphology of galaxies. These effects can be studied with…
We present a dark matter model reproducing well the results from DAMA/LIBRA and CoGeNT and having no contradiction with the negative results from XENON100 and CDMS-II/Ge. Two new species of fermions F and G form hydrogen-like atoms with…
