We observe experimentally the spontaneous formation of star-shaped surface patterns in driven Bose-Einstein condensates. Two-dimensional star-shaped patterns with $l$-fold symmetry, ranging from quadrupole ($l=2$) to heptagon modes ($l=7$),…

In this paper kink scattering processes are investigated in the Montonen-Sarker-Trullinger-Bishop model. The MSTB model is in fact a one-parametric family of relativistic scalar field theories living in a one-time one-space Minkowski…

The spin state of an atomic ensemble can be viewed as two bosonic modes, i.e., a quantum signal mode and a $c$-numbered ``local oscillator'' mode when large numbers of spin-1/2 atoms are spin-polarized along a certain axis and collectively…

At one loop, quantum kinks are described by a free theory. The nonlinearity and so the interesting phenomenology arrives at two loops, where, for example, internal excitations couple to continuum excitations. We calculate the two-loop mass…

The elastic resonance scattering protons decayed from $^{11}$B to the ground state of $^{10}$Be were measured using the thick-target technique in inverse kinematics at the Heavy Ion Research Facility in Lanzhou (HIRFL). The obtained…

We study the scattering properties of Sine Gordon kinks on obstructions in the form of finite size potential `wells'. We model this by making the coefficient of the $\cos(\phi)-1$ term in the Lagrangian position dependent. We show that when…
