Space--time can be understood as some kind of space--time foam of fluctuating bubbles or loops which are expected to be an outcome of a theory of quantum gravity. One recently discussed model for this kind of space--time fluctuations is the…
Multielectron bubbles (MEBs) differ from gas-filled bubbles in that it is the Coulomb repulsion of a nanometer thin layer of electrons that forces the bubble open rather than the pressure of an enclosed gas. We analyze the implosion of MEBs…
The aim of this paper is to derive a formula for the subwavelength resonance frequency of an encapsulated bubble with arbitrary shape in two dimensions. Using Gohberg-Sigal theory, we derive an asymptotic formula for this resonance…
Bose-Einstein coalescence of independent photons at the surface of a beam splitter is the physical process that allows linear optical quantum gates to be built. When distinct parametric down-conversion events are used as an independent…
Abrupt fluorescence intermittency or blinking is long recognized to be characteristic of single nano-emitters. Extended quantum-confined nanostructures also undergo spatially heterogeneous blinking, however, there is no such precedence in…
