For over 70 years it has been assumed that scalar wave propagation in (ensemble-averaged) random particulate materials can be characterised by a single effective wavenumber. Here, however, we show that there exist many effective…
Hawking radiation has become experimentally testable thanks to the many analogue systems which mimic the effects of the event horizon on wave propagation. These systems are typically dominated by dispersion, and give rise to a numerically…

We consider time-harmonic electromagnetic scattering problems on perfectly conducting scatterers with uncertain shape. Thus, the scattered field will also be uncertain. Based on the knowledge of the two-point correlation of the domain…
