Rare isotopes are most often studied through nuclear reactions. Nuclear reactions can be used to obtain detailed structure information but also in connection to astrophysics to determine specific capture rates. In order to extract the…
Quantum Field Theory is applied to study an electron plasma under an intense neutrino flux. The dispersion relation of the longitudinal waves is derived and the damping rate is calculated. It is shown that in the case of Supernova emission…

Focusing on a famous class of interacting diffusion processes called Ginzburg-Landau (GL) dynamics, we extend the Macroscopic Fluctuations Theory (MFT) to these systems in the case where the interactions are long-range, and consequently,…

I review the construction of an action for open superstring field theory which does not suffer from the contact term problems of other approaches. I also discuss a possible generalization of this action for closed superstring field theory.

The prevalent scheme of a diffusion-mediated bimolecular reaction $A+B\rightarrow P$ is an adaptation of that proposed by Briggs and Haldane for enzyme action [{\em Biochem J.\/}, 19:338--339, 1925]. The purpose of this Note is to explain,…
For two molecules to react they first have to meet. Yet, reaction times are rarely on par with the first-passage times that govern such molecular encounters. A prime reason for this discrepancy is stochastic transitions between reactive and…
We describe the resonant interaction of an atom with a strongly focused light beam by expanding the field in multipole waves. For a classical field, or when the field is described by a coherent state, we find that both intensity pattern and…
The long-range interactions of two atoms, of an atom and a dielectric wall, of an atom and a perfectly conducting wall, and of an atom between two perfectly conducting walls are calculated, including the effects of retardation, for Li using…
