Effect of the electroweak non-conservation of the baryon number could be a key ingredient to explain the ratio of dark and baryonic densities. If dark matter is explained by dark atoms, in which stable -2n charged particles are bound with n…
Quantum superposition states are behind many of the curious phenomena exhibited by quantum systems, including Bell non-locality, quantum interference, quantum computational speed-up, and the measurement problem. At the same time, many…
A ray of photons, emitted from a laser source, is in a coherent state, where macroscopic number of photons are degenerate in the same quantum state. The coherent state has degrees of freedom for spin and orbital angular momentum, which…
Photo-doping of Mott insulators or correlated metals can create an unusual metallic state which simultaneously hosts hole-like and electron-like particles. We study the dynamics of this state up to long times, as it passes its kinetic…
In multicomponent systems with strong local interaction one can encounter some phenomena absent in the standard systems of statistical physics and other multicomponent systems. Namely, a system with $N$ components in the bounded volume of…
Different electron states in atom are proposed. The states are bound to the electrostatic field of atomic nucleus cut off on its size. The states exist solely during acceleration of the atom exceeding the certain large value. The binding…
It is established within the Thomas -- Fermi model that a bound state of a proton with a heavy atom should exist. On the one hand, the electrons of the atom screen the proton's field. This decreases the repulsion force between the proton…
Observationally and experimentally, physical laws express how particles interact. Conversely, physical laws should be invariant under any re-arrangement of those particles, e.g., the laws of gravity do not change if one re-arranges the…
The Standard Model of cosmology states a surprising composition of the Universe, in which ordinary matter accounts for less than 5%. The remaining 95% are composed of ~70% Dark Energy and ~25% Dark Matter. However, those two components have…
We consider non-relativistic systems in quantum mechanics interacting through the Coulomb potential, and discuss the existence of bound states which are stable against spontaneous dissociation into smaller atoms or ions. We review the…
In quantum theory, particles in three spatial dimensions come in two different types: bosons or fermions, which exhibit sharply contrasting behaviours due to their different exchange statistics. Could more general forms of probabilistic…
In an isolated ideal Bose system with a fixed energy, the number of microstates depends solely on the configurations of bosons in excited states, implying zero entropy for particles in the ground state. When two such systems merge, the…
We show how the photon statistics emitted by a large variety of light-matter systems under weak coherent driving can be understood, to lowest order in the driving, in the framework of an admixture of (or interference between) a squeezed…
Motivated by evidence for the existence of dark matter, many new physics models predict the pair production of new particles, followed by the decays into two invisible particles, leading to a momentum imbalance in the visible system. For…
The crown jewel of particle physics, the Standard Model (SM), has withstood numerous experimental trials. However, there are still some observations it cannot explain. Examples such as dark matter and the matter-antimatter imbalance in the…
Using physical arguments, I derive the physically correct equations of motion for a classical charged particle from the Lorentz-Abraham-Dirac equations (LAD) which are well known to be physically incorrect. Since a charged particle can…
In systems with overdamped dynamics, the Lorentz force reduces the diffusivity of a Brownian particle in the plane perpendicular to the magnetic field. The anisotropy in diffusion implies that the Fokker-Planck equation for the probabiliy…
We predict the conditions under which two oppositely charged membranes show a dynamic, attractive instability. Two layers with unequal charges of opposite sign can repel or be stable when in close proximity. However, dynamic charge density…
We consider a relaxation of a single mode of the quantized field in a presence of one- and two-photon absorption and emission processes. Exact stationary solutions of the master equation for the diagonal elements of the density matrix in…
The invariant mass of free particles is used to derive a bound-state equation for the hydrogen atom at rest. This equation has the well-known solutions for the single-particle states. Existence of two-particle bound states, for which the…
