The nearly zero optical forward scattering and anti-dual conditions are usually associated to the so-called second Kerker condition, at which the electric and magnetic responses are phase-shifted by {\pi}. However, as we show, this…
Decoherence processes in quantum electrodynamics due to neglecting either the radiation [L. Landau, Z. Phys. 45, 430 (1927)] or the charged matter [N. Bohr and L. Rosenfeld, K. danske vidensk. Selsk, Math.-Fys. Medd. XII, 8 (1933)] have…
In this paper we study the shear free spherical symmetric gravitational collapse of charged radiating star. All the physical quantities including pressure, density are regular. Energy conditions are satisfied throughout the interior of the…
Naked singularities appear naturally in dynamically evolving solutions of Einstein equations involving gravitational collapse of radiation, dust and perfect fluids, provided the rate of accretion is less than a critical value. We propose…
We discuss HERA data on the high energy behavior of the total gamma*p cross section and on diffraction in deep inelastic scattering. We outline their novelty in comparison with diffraction in high energy hadron hadron scattering. As a…
Consider a plane monochromatic wave incident on a semi-infinite periodic structure. What happens if the normal component of the transmitted wave group velocity vanishes? At first sight, zero normal component of the transmitted wave group…
This note has no new results and is therefore not intended to be submitted to a "research" journal in the foreseeable future, but to be available to the numerous individuals who are interested in this issue. Several of those have approached…
We report the first observation of $e^+e^-$ annihilations into hadronic states of positive $C$-parity, $\rho^0 \rho^0$ and $\phi\rho^0$. The angular distributions support two-virtual-photon annihilation production. We also report the…
The possibility of testing trilinear neutral gauge boson couplings in radiative neutral current scattering at HERA is analyzed using a Monte Carlo program that includes the Standard Model at tree level and the anomalous vertices. Acceptance…
We study the observable properties of quantum systems which involve a quantum continuum as a subpart. We show in a very general way that in any system, which consists of at least two isolated states coupled to a continuum, the spectral…
The inclusive neutral and charged current deep inelastic scattering processes at high Q2 provide the main basis for electroweak studies at HERA. These studies include the determination of the W boson propagator mass and weak neutral current…
The classical Mie theory - electromagnetic radiation scattering by the homogeneous spherical particles - is considered in the epsilon near zero limits separately for the materials of the particles and the surrounding medium. The maxima of a…

Scattering of photons at an atom with a dynamical nucleus is studied on the subspace of states of the system with a total energy below the threshold for ionization of the atom (Rayleigh scattering). The kinematics of the electron and the…
In a search for signatures of physics processes beyond the Standard Model, various eeqq vector contact-interaction hypotheses have been tested using the high-Q^2, deep inelastic neutral-current e^+p scattering data collected with the ZEUS…
The quantization of the electromagnetic field in the presence of material bodies, at zero temperature is considered. It is shown that a dielectric does not act as thermal bath for the field and yields a non-trivial non-thermal mixed state…
We perform a quantum theoretical calculation of transition radiation by neutral particles with spin 1/2 equipped with magnetic moments and/or electric dipole moments. The limit of vanishing masses is treated exactly for arbitrary refraction…
We present the first experimental demonstration of zero backscattering from nanoparticles at op- tical frequencies as originally discussed by Kerker et. al. [M. Kerker, D. Wang, and C. Giles, J. Opt. Soc. A 73, 765 (1983)]. GaAs pillars…
The processes $e^+e^-\to e^+e^-X$, with $X$ being either the $\eta$ meson or $\pi^0\pi^0$, are studied at DA$\Phi$NE, with $e^+e^-$ beams colliding at $\sqrt{s}\simeq1$ GeV, below the $\phi$ resonance peak. The data sample is from an…
A novel method of studying e+e- annihilation into hadrons using initial state radiation at e+e- colliders is described. After brief history of the method, its theoretical foundations are considered. Numerous experiments in which exclusive…
