The phases of the Fourier modes appearing in a plane-wave expansion of cosmological density fields play a vital role in determining the morphology of gravitationally-developed clustering. We demonstrate this qualitatively and quantitatively…
This paper presents a new approach to studying galactic structures. They are considered as the low-frequency normal modes in a disc of orbits precessing at different angular speeds. Such a concept is an adequate alternative to the commonly…
The theoretical understanding of density waves in disk galaxies starts from the classical WKB perturbative analysis of tight-winding perturbations, the key assumption being that the potential due to the density wave is approximately radial.…
The dipolar (magnetostatic) interaction dominates the behavior of spin waves in magnetic films in the long-wavelength regime. In an in-plane magnetized film, volume modes exist with a negative group velocity (backward volume magnetostatic…

Light transport in a highly multimode fiber exhibits complex behavior in space, time, frequency and polarization, especially in the presence of mode coupling. The newly developed techniques of spatial wavefront shaping turn out to be highly…
Systematic effects on HI and Halpha long-slit observations make a measurement of the inner slope of the dark matter density distribution difficult to determine. Halos with constant density cores and ones with r^-1 profiles both appear…
