This paper is a companion to 'Quantum Diffusion with Drift and the Einstein Relation I' (jointly submitted to arXiv). Its purpose is to describe and prove a certain number of technical results used in 'Quantum Diffusion with Drift and the…
The problem of particle oscillation is considered in a pedagogical and comprehensive way. Examples from K, B and neutrino physics are given. Conceptual difficulties of the traditional approach to particle oscillation are discussed. It is…
Theory of granular dissipative gas is discussed based on Boltzmann's equation and in view of recent experimental results in micro-gravity during few CNES and ESA campaigns [9,11]. It is recalled that the Boltzmann's distribution is a steady…
We report the magnetoresistance(MR), de Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) oscillations and the electronic structures of single crystal PtGa. The large unsaturated MR is observed with the magnetic field B//[111]. Evident dHvA oscillations with B//[001]…
Gravitational radiation that propagates through an inhomogeneous mass distribution is subject to random gravitational lensing, or scattering, causing variations in the wave amplitude and temporal smearing of the signal. A statistical theory…
The influence of molecular vibration on the Seebeck coefficient is studied within a simple model. Results of a scattering theory approach are compared to those of a full self-consistent non-equilibrium Green's function scheme. We show, for…
Atomic diffraction through double slits and transmission gratings is well described in terms of the associated de Broglie waves and classical wave optics. However, for weakly bound and relatively large systems, such as the He_2 dimer, this…
In aggregation-fragmentation processes, a steady state is usually reached in the long time limit. This indicates the existence of a fixed point in the underlying system of ordinary differential equations. The next simplest possibility is an…
The quantum wave-function of a massive particle with small initial uncertainties (consistent with the uncertainty relation) is believed to spread very slowly, so that the dynamics is deterministic. This assumes that the classical motions…
Quantum walks that depend smoothly on a small parameter $\varepsilon\ge0$ are considered on directed graphs. The asymptotic behavior of the scattering matrix of the quantum walk as $\varepsilon\to+0$ is investigated. It is shown that, in…
Luttinger liquid theory accounts for the low energy boson excitations of one-dimensional quantum liquids, but disregards the high energy excitations. The most important high energy excitations are holes which have infinite lifetime at zero…
The quantum-mechanical scattering on a compact Riemannian manifold with semi-axes attached to it (hedgehog-shaped manifold) is considered. The complete description of the spectral structure of Schroedinger operators on such a manifold is…
The observables in a single-channel $2$-body scattering problem remain invariant once the amplitude is multiplied by an overall energy- and angle-dependent phase. This invariance is known as the continuum ambiguity. Also, mostly in…
Deep inelastic electron proton scattering at HERA II will allow precise studies of QCD and stringent tests of physics beyond the standard model. We discuss these two aspects of DIS with emphasis on the regime of high gluon densities at…
We are interested in the scattering problem for the cubic 3D nonlinear defocusing Schr\"odinger equation with variable coefficients. Previous scattering results for such problems address only the cases with constant coefficients or assume…
A nonlinear electromagnetic scattering problem is studied in the presence of bound states in the radiation continuum. It is shown that the solution is not analytic in the nonlinear susceptibility and the conventional perturbation theory…
The effect of surface atom vibrations for H$_2$ scattering from a Cu(111) surface at different temperatures is being investigated for hydrogen molecules in their rovibrational ground state ($v$=0, $j$=0). We assume weakly correlated…
The inclusive probability to record an electron in elastic electromagnetic scattering of an electron by a spin one-half hadron is obtained, the initial quantum states of the electron and the hadron being described by the density matrices of…
An extension of the Random Sequential Adsorption (RSA) model has been proposed recently, motivated by the coverage of oil droplets by DNA-functionalized colloidal particles. Particles arrive to a flat substrate with a uniform flux F but…
We calculate the nonrelativistic scattering of a wavepacket from a Coulomb potential and find deviations from the Rutherford formula in all cases. These generally occur only at low scattering angles, where they would be obscured by the part…
