We consider the possibility that low-energy nuclear reactions (LENR) arise due to the conversion of proton to neutron through weak interactions. The resulting neutron forms a short-lived virtual state, which then gets captured by another…

Quantum cooperativity is evident in light-matter platforms where quantum emitter ensembles are interfaced with confined optical modes and are coupled via the ubiquitous electromagnetic quantum vacuum. Cooperative effects can find…
We investigate laser-induced quantum interference phenomena in superradiance processes and in an ensemble of initially excited $\Lambda-$type closely packed three-level emitters. The lower doublet levels are pumped with a coherent laser…
We come to the conclusion that all atomic models based on either the Newton equation and the Kepler laws, or the Maxwell equations, or the Schrodinger and Dirac equations are in reasonable agreement with experimental data. We can only…
