We study kink-antikink scattering in the sine-Gordon model in the presence of interactions with an additional scalar field, $\psi$, that is in its quantum vacuum. In contrast to the classical scattering, now there is quantum radiation of…

We examine the Friedel sum rule which states that the "excess charge" due to a single impurity potential in a metal is equal to a sum of phase shifts for scatterings of electrons by the impurity. For finite volume, the ``excess charge" is…
Sound propagation in a waveguide lined with one section of locally reactive material is studied by resonance scattering approach. The objective is to understand the effects of mode coupling in the lined section on the transmission. It is…

We show that the breakdown of the Wiedemann-Franz law due to electron--electron scattering in diffusive spin valves may result in a strong suppression of the Fano factor that describes the ratio between shot noise and average current. In…
Friedel's law states that the modulus of the Fourier transform of real functions is centrosymmetric, while the phase is antisymmetric. As a consequence of this, elastic scattering of plane wave photons or electrons within the first-order…
A quantum theory of dispersion for an inhomogeneous solid is obtained, from a starting point of multipolar coupled atoms interacting with an electromagnetic field. The dispersion relations obtained are equivalent to the standard classical…
Transport properties of massive Dirac particles are investigated through an oscillating barrier. The Floquet quasienergies related to the time-dependent potential appear both in transmission and reflection as sidebands around the incoming…
Friedel's law guarantees an inversion-symmetric diffraction pattern for thin, light materials where a kinematic approximation or a single-scattering model holds. Typically, breaking Friedel symmetry is ascribed to multiple scattering events…
It is shown that elastic resonance scattering of light by a finite-size obstacle with weak dissipation is analogous to quantum scattering by a potential with quasi-discrete levels and exhibits Fano resonances. Localized plasmons…
