Vibrational spectra of proteins and topologically disordered solids display a common anomaly at low frequencies, known as Boson peak. We show that such feature in globular proteins can be deciphered in terms of an energy landscape picture,…
The energy of the bosonic bath and the flow of quantum information are analyzed over short and long times in local dephasing channels for special correlated or factorized initial conditions, respectively, which involve thermal states. The…

We consider the one dimensional expansion of a system of interacting bosons, starting from a regular array. Without interactions the familiar Hanbury Brown and Twiss effect for bosons gives rise to a series of peaks in the density-density…
Soft jammed solids exhibit intriguing mechanical properties, while their linear response is elusive. In particular, foams and emulsions generally reveal anomalous viscous loss with the loss and storage modulus following $G^{\prime \prime}…
We measure the power spectrum of the density distribution of a freely expanding 2D degenerate Bose gas, where irregular density modulations gradually develop due to the initial phase fluctuations in the sample. The spectrum has an…
The common observation of anomalous `$1/f^\alpha$' relaxation with $\alpha<2$ constitutes one of the enduring mysteries of condensed matter physics. Here it is shown that a $1/f^{\alpha}$ spectral density, with $\alpha = 3/2$, can arise in…
