We propose that "standard pings", brief broadband radio impulses, can be used to study the three-dimensional clustering of matter in the Universe even in the absence of redshift information. The dispersion of radio waves as they travel…
Measurements of fluctuations in the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation (CMBR) is one of the most promising methods for measuring the fundamental cosmological parameters. However, in order to infer parameters from precision measurements…
I demonstrate a simple example of how the time series obtained from searches for ultralight bosonic dark matter (DM), such as the axion, can be used to determine whether it is in a coherent or incoherent quantum state. The example is…

Emission lines in X-ray spectra of clusters of galaxies reveal the presence of heavy elements in the diffuse hot plasma (the Intra Cluster Medium, or ICM) in virial equilibrium in the dark matter potential well. The relatively simple…
Time-resolved imaging of chemically active valence electron densities is a long sought goal, as these electrons dictate the course of chemical reactions. However, x-ray scattering is always dominated by the core and inert valence electrons,…
Interference of single-photon wave packets at a beam splitter usually leads to an anticorrelation of the light intensity in the two output ports of the beam splitter. The effect may be regarded as ``bunching'' of the photons at the beam…

In certain conditions a macroscopic quantum-mechanical scattering may occur, which may lead to a coherent cross-section on a macroscopic scale in a monocrystal. The conditions are satisfied by neutrinos, but not satisfied by other…

Synchrotron emission of relativistic particles in magnetic fields is a process of paramount importance in astrophysics. Although known for over thirty years, there are still aspects of this radiative process that have received little…
A theory for the characterization of the fourth moment of electromagnetic wave beams is presented in the case when the source is partially coherent. A Gaussian-Schell model is used for the partially coherent random source. The white-noise…
