In the three-body system with one resonantly interacting pair, we study the behavior of the $S$-matrix pole near the threshold in the fourth quadrant of the unphysical complex energy plane. Our study is essentially based on the unitarity…

We study the $2\rightarrow2$ $S$-matrix element of a generic, gapped and Lorentz invariant QFT in $d=1+1$ space time dimensions. We derive an analytical bound on the coupling of the asymptotic states to unstable particles (a.k.a.…
Exact solutions to the quantum S-matrices for solitons in simply-laced affine Toda field theories are obtained, except for certain factors of simple type which remain undetermined in some cases. These are found by postulating solutions…

A general formula for the current through a disordered normal--superconducting junction is derived, which is valid at finite temperature and includes the full voltage dependence. The result depends on a multichannel scattering matrix, which…
We study the worldsheet S-matrix of a string attached to a D-brane in AdS$_5\times$S$^5$. The D-brane is either a giant graviton or a dual giant graviton. In the gauge theory, the operators we consider belong to the $su(2|3)$ sector of the…
We analyze four and five-point tree-level open string S-matrix amplitudes in the Regge limit, exhibiting some basic features which indicate longitudinal nonlocality, as suggested by light cone gauge calculations of string spreading. Using…
We present a semiclassical derivation of the tree-level and 1-loop dressing phases in the massive sector of string theory on AdS_3 x S^3 x T^4 supplemented by R-R and NS-NS 3-form fluxes. In analogy with the AdS_5 x S^5 case, we use the…
We explore the space of consistent three-particle couplings in $\mathbb Z_2$-symmetric two-dimensional QFTs using two first-principles approaches. Our first approach relies solely on unitarity, analyticity and crossing symmetry of the…

Studying the scattering of excitations around a dynamical background has a long history in the context of integrable models. The Gubser-Klebanov-Polyakov string solution provides such a background for the string/gauge correspondence. Taking…
Can the S-matrix be complexified in a way consistent with causality? Since the 1960's, the affirmative answer to this question has been well-understood for $2 \to 2$ scattering of the lightest particle in theories with a mass gap at low…
Nuclear data libraries (ENDF, JEFF, JENDL, CENDL, etc.) document our phenomenological knowledge of nuclear cross sections as interpreted by R-matrix theory. The R-matrix scattering model can parameterize the energy dependence of the…
