In the linear regime, transport properties of ballistic two-terminal devices are generally considered to be independent of the direction of the current. This two-terminal reciprocity applies to both the electron transmission and reflection…
We study the time required for a wave packet to tunnel beyond a square barrier, or to be reflected, by envisaging a physical clock which ticks only when the particle is within the barrier region. The clock consists in a magnetic moment…
We study the transmission and group delay time for fermions in graphene under a proximity exchange field scattered by double barriers. Solving the Dirac equation over five regions, we calculate transmission and reflection coefficients using…
We consider estimation of covariance matrices and their inverses (a.k.a. precision matrices) for high-dimensional stationary and locally stationary time series. In the latter case the covariance matrices evolve smoothly in time, thus…
We present a method for proving the existence of time delay (defined in terms of sojourn times) as well as its identity with Eisenbud-Wigner time delay in the case of the Friedrichs model. We show that this method applies to scattering by…
We investigate a time-harmonic wave problem in a waveguide. By means of asymptotic analysis techniques, we justify the so-called Fano resonance phenomenon. More precisely, we show that the scattering matrix considered as a function of a…
Many records in environmental sciences exhibit asymmetric trajectories and there is a need for simple and tractable models which can reproduce such features. In this paper we explore an approach based on applying both a time change and a…
The reflection and transmission of a few-cycle laser pulse impinging on two parallel thin metal layers have been analyzed. The two layers, with a thickness much smaller than the skin depth of the incoming radiation field, are represented by…
We prove that the oft-used stationary-phase method gives a very accurate expression for the Fourier transform of the gravitational-wave signal produced by an inspiraling compact binary. We give three arguments. First, we analytically…
Delay time is defined as a time that a wave spent in a scattering medium before it escapes, and this can be derived by the energy derivative of the phase of the scattering wave. Considering the complex reflection amplitude…
In a recent paper (hep-th/0103228) a new initial value formulation of fermionic QFT was presented that is applicable to an arbitrary observer in any electromagnetic background. This approach suggests a consistent particle interpretation at…
Test particle transport determined by the Lorentz force in turbulent magnetized plasmas is studied. The time dependent diffusion coefficient, valid for the whole range of parameters, is obtained by developing the decorrelation trajectory…
Fractional relaxation equations, as well as relaxation functions time-changed by independent stochastic processes have been widely studied (see, for example, \cite{MAI}, \cite{STAW} and \cite{GAR}). We start here by proving that the…
The nonstationary nature of signals and nonlinear systems require the time-frequency representation. In time-domain signal, frequency information is derived from the phase of the Gabor's analytic signal which is practically obtained by the…
We show that the delay time distribution for wave reflection from a one-dimensional random potential is related directly to that of the reflection coefficient, derived with an arbitrarily small but uniform imaginary part added to the random…
In this paper we calculate the analytic expression of the phase time for the scattering of an electron off a complex square barrier. As is well known the (negative) imaginary part of the potential takes into account, phenomenologically, the…
We investigate the connection between conditional local limit theorems and the local time of integer-valued stationary processes. We show that a conditional local limit theorem (at 0) implies the convergence of local times to Mittag-Leffler…
A propagator for the one dimensional time-dependent Schr\"odinger equation with an asymmetric rectangular potential is obtained using the multiple-scattering theory approach. It allows for the consideration of the reflection and…
Long-distance transmission of energy by waves is a key mechanism for many natural processes. It becomes possible when the inhomogeneous medium is arranged in such a manner that it enables a specific type of waves to propagate with virtually…
In quantum theory we refer to the probability of finding a particle between positions $x$ and $x+dx$ at the instant $t$, although we have no capacity of predicting exactly when the detection occurs. In this work, first we present an…
