We demonstrate that by changing the direction of the chirp in VUV pulses one can switch between excitation and ionization with very high contrast, if the carrier frequency of the light is resonant with two bound states. This is a surprising…
Coupled waveguides are convenient at implementing useful optical transformations. In this letter, we investigate the uncertainty of transformation by two coupled waveguides that stems from the perturbations of waveguide's mode indices~---…
Time averages extracted from single-particle trajectories in complex media often vary strongly from one trajectory to another, even for long measurement times. Such persistent trajectory-to trajectory scatter is commonly observed in…

Materials with properties that are modulated in time are known to display wave phenomena showing energy increasing with time, with the rate mediated by the modulation. Until now there has been no accounting for material dissipation, which…

Fast radio bursts are radio transients observed mainly around 1.5 GHz. Their peak frequency decreases at a rate of 100 ~ 500 MHz/s and some of them have a broader pulse with an exponentially decaying tail. Common assumptions for fast radio…
We report on phase-resolved optical spectroscopy and photometry in the R and B bands of the white dwarf candidate ZTF 185139.81+171430.3. The source has been reported to be variable with a large amplitude of close to 1 magnitude, in the R…
We theoretically propose a temporal cloaking scheme based on accelerating wave packets. A part of a monochromatic lightwave is endowed with a discontinuous nonlinear frequency chirp, so that two opposite accelerating caustics are created in…
The ultrafast response of metals to light is governed by intriguing non-equilibrium dynamics involving the interplay of excited electrons and phonons. The coupling between them gives rise to nonlinear diffusion behavior on ultrashort…
We study an active random walker model in which a particle's motion is determined by a self-generated field. The field encodes information about the particle's path history. This leads to either self-attractive or self-repelling behavior.…
