It is well known that acoustic fields can produce forces on single particles, however they can also induce inter-particle forces due to multiple scattering events. This multi-particle force -- here referred to as acoustic binding -- is…

As a proof of principle, we show how a classical nonlinear Hamiltonian system can be driven resonantly over reasonably long times by appropriately shaped pulses. To keep the parameter space reasonably small, we limit ourselves to a driving…
Nonlinear dynamical systems possessing reflection symmetry have an invariant subspace in the phase space. The dynamics within the invariant subspace can be random or chaotic. As a system parameter changes, the motion transverse to the…

Photonic time crystals (PTCs) are spatially uniform media with periodic modulation in time, enabling momentum bandgaps and the parametric amplification of light. While their potential in optical systems is very promising, practical…
We show that, in presence of a complex spectrum, antiresonances act as a precursor for dephasing enabling the crossover to a fully decoherent transport even within a unitary Hamiltonian description. This general scenario is illustrated here…

We propose a theory of the resonance-antiresonance scattering process which differs considerably from the classical one (the Breit-Wigner theory), which is commonly used in the phenomenological analysis. Here both resonances and…
