Light is extensively used to steer the motion of atoms in free space, enabling cooling and trapping of matter waves through ponderomotive forces and Doppler-mediated photon scattering. Likewise, light interaction with free electrons has…

Models where Dark Matter and Dark Energy interact with each other have been proposed to solve the coincidence problem. We review the motivations underlying the need to introduce such interaction, its influence on the background dynamics and…
Directionally molding the near-field and far-field radiation lies at the heart of nanophotonics and is crucial for applications such as on-chip information processing and chiral quantum networks. The most fundamental model for radiating…

Mie theory is the classical problem for modeling of light scattering by spherical particles. In this paper, we perform a spherical harmonic analysis of its solution for the induced fields to reveal the physics underlying the resonant…
We show that nonlinear multipolar interference allows achieving not only unidirectional, but also non-reciprocal nonlinear generation from a nanoelement, with the direction of the nonlinearly produced light decoupled from that of at least…
We review the basic physics behind light interaction with plasmonic nanoparticles. The theoretical foundations of light scattering on one metallic particle (a plasmonic monomer) and two interacting particles (a plasmonic dimer) are…
Matter-antimatter asymmetries observed in high energy / relativistic heavy ion collisions and, differently, in the Early Universe are discussed considering ideas from the phase diagram of strong interactions with assumptions that do not…
We review our recent work leading to steady-state solutions of the semiclassical (Maxwell-Bloch) equations of a laser. These are coupled non-linear partial differential equations in space and time which have previously been solved either by…
This thesis covers different subjects of nonlinear and quantum optics, studied in systems with scales smaller or com-parable to the wavelength of interest. The manuscript is divided into two parts. The first part of the manuscript dealswith…
Quantum interference effects are shown to provide a means of controlling and enhancing the focusing a collimated neutral molecular beam onto a surface. The nature of the aperiodic pattern formed can be altered by varying laser field…

We theoretically investigate light matter interactions for chiral molecules in the presence of non-chiral nanoantennas. Isotropic nanostructures supporting optical-frequency electric or magnetic dipoles are sufficient to locally enhance the…
The strength of light emission near metallic nanostructures can scale anomalously with frequency and dimensionality. We find that light-matter interactions in plasmonic systems confined in two dimensions (e.g., near metal nanowires)…
