We test the ability of semiclassical theory to describe quantitatively the revival of quantum wavepackets --a long time phenomena-- in the one dimensional quartic oscillator (a Kerr type Hamiltonian). Two semiclassical theories are…
Expressions for correlation functions of classical non-isothermal two-component plasma are derived. In the limiting case of $\Theta_e\gg\Theta_i$ strong correlations arise due to the existence of weakly damping waves (ionic sound), whose…

This paper is the continuation of a previous one [L. {\v{S}}amaj and B. Jancovici, 2007 {\it J. Stat. Mech.} P02002]; for a nearly classical quantum fluid in a half-space bounded by a plain plane hard wall (no image forces), we had…
