Many optical measurement techniques, such as light scattering from wavelength-scale particles or detecting motion from a surface with an optical lever, encode information in a complex radiation pattern. Extracting all available information…
It is suggested that virtual gluon-clusters exist in nucleon, and that such colorless and colored objects manifest themselves in the small $x_B$ region of inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering processes. The relationship between the…

Scattering can rapidly degrade our ability to form an optical image, to the point where only speckle-like patterns can be measured. Truly non-invasive imaging through a strongly scattering obstacle is difficult, and usually reliant on a…
