We show that quantum pumping does not always require a quantum description or a quantum phase. Quantum pumping is shown to encompass different types of processes, some of which intrinsically rely on phase while others do not. We also show…

We report that liquids perform self-propelled motion when they are placed in contact with hot surfaces with asymmetric (ratchet-like) topology. The pumping effect is observed when the liquid is in the film-boiling regime, for many liquids…

We model the trapping of plasma $e^-$ within the density structures excited by a propagating energy source ($\beta_{S}\simeq1$) in a rising plasma density gradient. Rising density gradient leads to spatially contiguous coupled up-chirped…

Steady states reached in a coherently pumped exciton-polariton superfluid are investigated. As the pump parameter is changed, the translational symmetry of the uniform system is spontaneously broken, and various steady patterns of quantized…

We studied a system of atomic Bose-Einstein condensate coupled to a ring cavity within the mean-field theory. Due to the interaction between atoms and light field, the atoms can be self-trapped. This is verified with both variational and…
