We investigate the evolution of a particle in a Lorentz gas where the background scatters move and collide with each other. As in the standard Lorentz gas, we assume that the particle is negligibly light in comparison with scatters. We show…

We propose a novel microlensing event search method that differs from either the traditional time domain method, astrometric microlensing, or the parallax microlensing method. Our method assumes that stars with nearly identical "genes" -…

Scattering of waves is omnipresent in nature in systems with sizes varying from $10^{-15}$ to $10^{25}$ m. Within this 40 orders of magnitude, in a great number of systems, the scattering can be separated in an averaged response that…
Multi-wavelength spectroscopy can be used to constrain the dust and gas properties in debris disks. Circumstellar dust absorbs and scatters incident stellar light. The scattered light is sometimes resolved spatially at visual and…
