Astrophysical molecular spectroscopy is an important means of searching for new physics through probing the variation of the proton-to-electron mass ratio, $\mu$. New molecular probes could provide tighter constraints on the variation of…
In this contribution, we consider MUltiple SIgnal Classification (MUSIC)-type algorithm for a non-iterative microwave imaging of small and arbitrary shaped extended anomalies located in a homogeneous media from scattering matrix whose…
The performance of basis sets made of numerical atomic orbitals is explored in density-functional calculations of solids and molecules. With the aim of optimizing basis quality while maintaining strict localization of the orbitals, as…
Ptychographic reconstructions in reflection geometries are commonly interpreted with the same two-dimensional thin-sample model used in transmission, yet the validity of this approximation has not been established. We develop a…
Inspired by the natural piezoelectric effect, we introduce hybrid-wave electromechanical meta-atoms and meta-molecules that consist of coupled electrical and mechanical oscillators with similar resonance frequencies. We propose an…
The dipole approximation is employed to describe interactions between atoms and radiation. It essentially consists of neglecting the spatial variation of the external field over the atom. Heuristically, this is justified by arguing that the…
We numerically investigate the sensitivity of the scattered wave field to perturbations in the shape of a scattering body illuminated by an incident plane wave. This study is motivated by recent work on the inverse problem of reconstructing…
Scattering of a tightly focused electron beam by an atom forms one of the bases of modern electron microscopy. A fundamental symmetry breaking occurs when the target atom is displaced from the beam center. This displacement results in a…
Several extensions to the Standard Model of particle physics, including light dark matter candidates and unification theories, predict deviations from Newton's law of gravitation. For macroscopic distances, the inverse-square law of…
We investigate theoretically electromagnetic plane-wave scattering by self-complementary metasurfaces. By using Babinet's principle extended to metasurfaces with resistive elements, we show that the frequency-independent transmission and…
Quantum sensitivity is an important issue in the field of quantum metrology where sub-Planck scale structures play crucial role in the Heisenberg limited measurement. We investigate the mesoscopic superposition structures, particularly for…
Twisted photons are not plane waves, but superpositions of plane waves with a defined projection hbar m of the orbital angular momentum onto the propagation axis (m is integer and may attain values m >> 1). Here, we describe in detail the…
Electromagnetic scattering on subwavelength structures keeps attracting attention owing to abroad range of possible applications, where this phenomenon is in use. Fundamental limits of scattering cross-section, being well understood in…
We study the anomalous electromagnetic scattering in the homogenization regime, by a subwavelength thin layer of periodically distributed plasmonic nanoparticles on a perfect conducting plane. By using layer potential techniques, we derive…
Atomic-resolution imaging with scanning transmission electron microscopy is a powerful tool for characterizing the nanoscale structure of materials, in particular features such as defects, local strains, and symmetry-breaking distortions.…
We describe the resonant interaction of an atom with a strongly focused light beam by expanding the field in multipole waves. For a classical field, or when the field is described by a coherent state, we find that both intensity pattern and…
Interference terms between monopole and quadrupole Coulomb form factors that contribute to the cross-section of electron scattering from polarized nuclei are studied within the plane wave Born approximation. By experimentally exploring the…
The coupled-channel technique augments a non-relativistic distorted wave born approximation scattering calculation to include a coupling to virtual states from the negative energy region. It has been found to be important in low energy…
Hot alkali metal vapors enclosed in sub-micron spectroscopic cells provide an ideal system for fundamental studies of the atom-wall and atom-light interactions at nanoscale. Here, we propose a novel approach for calculating the eigenmodes…
We consider an inverse scattering problem to identify the locations or shapes of unknown anomalies from scattering parameter data collected by a small number of dipole antennas. Most of researches does not considered the influence of dipole…
