Amorphous, glass, and glass-ceramic materials practically always include a significant number (more than eight) of crystalline phases, with the contents of the latter ranging from a few wt.% to several hundredths or tenths of wt.%. The…
We present an optical picture of linear-optics superradiance, based on a single scattering event embedded in a dispersive effective medium composed by the other atoms. This linear-dispersion theory is valid at low density and in the…
This paper considers electromagnetic transients of a modest total energy (${\cal E} \gtrsim 10^{40}$ erg) and small initial size (${\cal R} \gtrsim 10^{-1}$ cm). They could be produced during collisions between relativistic field structures…
Freezing of dispersions is omnipresent in science and technology. While the passing of a freezing front over a solid particle is reasonably understood, this is not so for soft particles. Here, using an oil-in-water emulsion as a model…

The phenomenon of electron-laser vacuum breakdown is the multiple cascade production of electron-positron pairs in head-on collision of a beam of relativistic electrons with an intense laser pulse. This effect was first predicted by the…
Beginning from the first neutron spin-echo study of the shape fluctuations of microemulsion droplets [J.S. Huang, S.T. Milner, B. Farago, and D. Richter, Phys. Rev. Lett. 59, 2600 (1987)] these experiments are incorrectly interpreted in the…
