We present a model-independent framework to determine finite-volume corrections of matrix elements of spatially-separated current-current operators. We define these matrix elements in terms of Compton-like amplitudes, i.e. amplitudes…
This colloquium addresses the issue of the shape of hadrons and in particular that of the proton. The concept of shape in the microcosm is critically examined. Special attention is devoted to properly define the meaning of shape for…
Quantum mechanics does not provide any ready recipe for defining energy density in space, since the energy and coordinate do not commute. To find a well-motivated energy density, we start from a possibly fundamental, relativistic…
We give physical explanations of explicit invariant expressions for the energy and angular momentum densities of gravitational fields in stationary space-times. These expressions involve non-locally defined conformal factors. In certain…
The motion of an electron in an image field and a blocking electric field is considered in semiclassical approximation. An exact analytical expression is found for the density of the energy spectrum of states. The dependence of spectral…
Bound states around an impurity are investigated for a two dimensional electron system in a strong magnetic field. Long-range Coulomb potential and related potentials are considered. Schr\"odinger equation is solved numerically to obtain…
While metamaterials are often desirable for near-field functions, such as perfect lensing, or cloaking, they are often quantified by their response to plane waves from the far field. Here, we present a theoretical analysis of the local…

We present a mean-field theoretical study on the effect of a single non-magnetic impurity in quasi-one dimensional unconventional density wave. The local scattering potential is treated within the self-consistent $T$-matrix approximation.…
The local density of states \rho(x,E) is calculated for a Bloch electron in an electric field. Depending on the system size, we can see one or more sequences of Wannier-Stark ladders in \rho(x,E), with Lorentz type level widths and apparent…
In the recent paper [17] the first experimental determination of the density matrix of a free electron beam has been reported. The employed method leads to a linear inverse problem with a positive semidefinite operator as unknown. The…
As far as entanglement is concerned, two density matrices of $n$ particles are equivalent if they are on the same orbit of the group of local unitary transformations, $U(d_1)\times...\times U(d_n)$ (where the Hilbert space of particle $r$…
In this work, the definition of the density operator on quantum states in Hilbert spaces and some of its aspects relevant in thermodynamics and information-theoretical entropy calculations are given. In this framework, a physical model…
The assumption of linear confinement leads to a proportionality of the energy-momentum and space-time pictures of fragmentation for a simple qqbar system in the Lund string model. The hadronization of more complicated systems is more…
Starting with the average particle distribution function for bosons and fermions for non-extensive thermodynamics , as proposed in \cite{CMP}, we obtain the corresponding density matrix operators and hamiltonians. In particular, for the…

The orbital magnetic moment is still surprisingly not well understood, in contrast to the spin part. Its description in finite systems, such as isolated atoms and molecules, is not problematic, but it was only recently that a rigorous…
