We consider the role of chirally odd wave functions in hard exclusive reactions. Such wave functions have the quarks oriented in the opposite helicity configuration from those assumed in the short-distance limit and are generally associated…
A 6-component "wave function" (not field, but S-matrix interpretable) for a massive spin-1 particle parallels the Dirac "chirality-doubled" 4-component wave function for a spin-1/2 particle, by pairing two wave functions for same spin but…
The spin structure of the pion is discussed by transforming the wave function for the pion in the naive quark model into a light-cone representation. It is shown that there are higher helicity ($\lambda_{1}+\lambda_{2}=\pm1$) states in the…

In this two-part study, we investigate the motion of rigid, active objects in shear Stokes flow, focusing on bodies that induce rapid rotation as part of their activity. In Part 2, we derive and analyse governing equations for rapidly…
Superoscillatory wave forms, i.e., waves that locally oscillate faster than their highest Fourier component, possess unusual properties that make them of great interest from quantum mechanics to signal processing. However, the more…
We consider some of the methods that can be used to reveal the general features of how wave functions evolve with time in the harmonic oscillator. We first review the periodicity properties over each multiple of a quarter of the classical…

Generalised definitions of exponential, trigonometric sine and cosine and hyperbolic sine and cosine functions are given. In the lowest order, these functions correspond to ordinary exponential, trigonometric sine etc. Some of the…
In this article, we extend the %Weyl-van der Waerden spinor technique for calculating helicity amplitudes to general massive fields of half-integer spins. We find that the little group generators can be represented as first-order…
We derive the dispersion relation for linearized small-amplitude gravity waves for various choices of non-constant vorticity. To the best of our knowledge, this relation is only known explicitly in the case of constant vorticity. We provide…
We study non-scattering phenomena associated with the time-harmonic Helmholtz equation in two dimensions. For very general classes of star-shaped domains, we show that there are at most finitely many wave numbers such that Herglotz incident…
