The interactions of particles with medium may lead to a nonzero in-medium mass width of the particles and cause them to have different masses in the medium. In this letter, we investigate the influence of the in-medium mass width on the…
As an extension of the ideas of Hanbury-Brown and Twiss, a method is proposed to eliminate the phase noise of white chaotic light in the regime where it is dominant, and to measure the much smaller Poisson fluctuations from which the…

Any dielectric lens has a finite closed boundary and therefore is, in fact, an open dielectric resonator capable of supporting resonant modes whose Q-factor depends of the lens parameters (size, shape, and material). The hemielliptic lens,…
An important next step for pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) is to measure anisotropies in the gravitational wave background (GWB) at $\sim$ nano-Hz frequencies. We calculate the expected GWB anisotropies using empirically calibrated models for…
