The experimental demonstration that neutrons can reside in gravitational quantum stationary states formed in the gravitational field of the Earth indicates a need to examine in more detail the general theoretical properties of gravitational…
In this article, we propose a concise theoretical framework based on mixed field-susceptibilities to describe the decay of magnetic dipoles induced by non--magnetic nanostructures. This approach is first illustrated in simple cases in which…
We investigate the possibility of generating sizeable dipole radiations in relativistic theories of gravity. Optimal parameters to observe their effects through the orbital period decay of binary star systems are discussed. Constraints on…
This is the second paper of a series in which we attempt to put constraints on the flattening of dark halos in disk galaxies. For this purpose, we observe the HI in edge-on galaxies, where it is in principle possible to measure the force…
We derive the weak field limit for a gravitational Lagrangian density $L_{g}=(R+a_{0}R^{2}+\sum_{k=1}^{p} a_{k}R\Box^{k}R)\sqrt{-g}$ where higher-order derivative terms in the Ricci scalar $R$ are taken into account. The interest for this…
We investigate the dissipative dynamics of a two-level atom in a weak gravitational field. Using the Feynman--Vernon influence functional formalism, we derive a quantum master equation describing the two-level atom interacting with a scalar…
Linear rate equations are used to describe the cascading decay of an initial heavy cluster into fragments. This representation is based upon a triangular matrix of transition rates. We expand the state vector of mass multiplicities, which…
A spectrum of massive graviton states is present in several recent theoretical models that include extra space dimensions. In some such models the graviton states are well separated in mass, and can be detected as resonances in collider…
The spontaneous relaxation rates for an atom in free space and close to an absorbing surface are calculated to various orders of the electromagnetic multipole expansion. The spontaneous decay rates for dipole, quadrupole and octupole…
This paper introduces a novel method to extend the Helmholtz Decomposition to n-dimensional sufficiently smooth and fast decaying vector fields. The rotation is described by a superposition of n(n-1)/2 rotations within the coordinate…
We study the differential decay rate for the rare $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda (\to N \pi)\ell^+\ell^-$ transition, including a determination of the complete angular distribution, assuming unpolarized $\Lambda_b$ baryons. On the basis of a…
Magnetars are comparatively young neutron stars with ultra-strong surface magnetic field in the range $10^{14-16}$ G. The old neutron stars have surface magnetic field some what less $\sim 10^8$ G which clearly indicates the decay of field…
Strong magnetic fields in the cores of stars are expected to significantly modify the behavior of gravity waves: this is likely the origin of suppressed dipole modes observed in many red giants. However, a detailed understanding of how such…
We study the ground state phase diagram of ultracold dipolar gases in highly anisotropic traps. Starting from a one-dimensional geometry, by ramping down the transverse confinement along one direction, the gas reaches various planar…
The contribution of higher-order multipoles to radiative and non-radiative decay of a single dipole emitter close to a spherical metallic nanoparticle is re-examined. Taking a Ag spherical nanoparticle (AgNP) with the radius of 5 nm as an…
We perform a series of two-dimensional, axisymmetric, magnetohydrodynamic simulations of the rotational collapse of a supernova core. In order to calculate the waveforms of the gravitational wave, we derive the quadrupole formula including…
We propose a novel mechanism for photon-dark photon mass state oscillations mediated by gravitational separation during propagation through the interstellar medium. This phenomenon establishes a new avenue for the detection of dark matter.…
We present a set of N-body simulations of a class of models in which an unstable dark matter particle decays into a stable non-interacting dark matter particle, with decay lifetime comparable to the Hubble time. We study the effects of the…
Recent experiments on ultra slow light in strongly dispersive media by several research groups reporting slowing down of the optical pulses down to speeds of a few metres per second encourage us to examine the intriguing possibility of…
The rate of gravitational-wave energy loss from inspiralling binary systems of compact objects of arbitrary mass is derived through second post-Newtonian (2PN) order $O[(Gm/rc^2)^2]$ beyond the quadrupole approximation. The result has been…
