We study quantum transport in anisotropic 3D disorder and show that non rotation invariant correlations can induce rich diffusion and localization properties. For instance, structured finite-range correlations can lead to the inversion of…

The macroscopic transport properties in a disordered potential, namely diffusion and weak/strong localization, closely depend on the microscopic and statistical properties of the disorder itself. This dependence is rich of counter-intuitive…

We study the transport of classical waves through three-dimensional (3D) anisotropic media close to the Anderson localization transition. Time-, frequency-, and position-resolved ultrasonic measurements are performed on anisotropic…

We study Anderson localization and propagation of partially-spatially incoherent wavepackets in linear disordered potentials, motivated by the insight that interference phenomena resulting from multiple scattering are affected by the…

We study Anderson localization of a scalar wave in an ensemble of resonant point scatterers embedded in an anisotropic background medium. For uniaxial anisotropy of moderate strength, the mobility edges and the critical exponent of the…

We examine the onset of Anderson localization in three-dimensional systems with structural disorder in the form of lattice irregularities and in the absence of any on-site disordered potential. Analyzing two models with distinct types of…

We show that the recently developed self-consistent theory of Anderson localization with a position-dependent diffusion coefficient is in quantitative agreement with the supersymmetry approach up to terms of the order of $1/g_0^2$ (with…

We investigate light transport in three-dimensional disordered media composed of irregular dielectric particles using large scale full-wave simulations. For subwavelength particles with size parameter $kr \approx 1$ and high refractive…

Anderson localization is a striking phenomenon wherein transport of light is arrested due to the formation of disorder-induced resonances. Hitherto, Anderson localization has been demonstrated separately in two limits of disorder, namely,…

Previous work has established that the localized regime of wave transport in open media is characterized by a position-dependent diffusion coefficient. In this work we study how the concept of position-dependent diffusion affects the delay…

We present a detailed numerical and theoretical analysis of the recently discovered phenomenon of coherent forward scattering. This effect manifests itself as a macroscopic interference peak in the forward direction of the momentum…

Diffusion has been widely used to describe a random walk of particles or waves, and it requires only one parameter -- the diffusion constant. For waves, however, diffusion is an approximation that disregards the possibility of interference.…

Diffusive transport is among the most common phenomena in nature [1]. However, as predicted by Anderson [2], diffusion may break down due to interference. This transition from diffusive transport to localization of waves should occur for…

We use two different fully vectorial microscopic models featuring nonresonant and resonant scattering, respectively, to demonstrate the Anderson localization transition for elastic waves in three-dimensional (3D) disordered solids. Critical…

We discuss effects of anisotropic scattering in transport properties of ultracold atoms in three-dimensional optical potentials. Within the realm of the first Born approximation, we calculate the self energy, the scattering mean free time,…

One of the daunting challenges in optical physics is to accurately control the flow of light at the subwavelength scale, by patterning the optical medium one can design anisotropic media. The light transport can also be significantly…

The self-consistent theory of localization is generalized to account for a weak quadratic nonlinear potential in the wave equation. For spreading wave packets, the theory predicts the destruction of Anderson localization by the nonlinearity…

This article studies multiple scattering of matter waves by a disordered optical potential in two and in three dimensions. We calculate fundamental transport quantities such as the scattering mean free path $\ell_s$, the Boltzmann transport…

A unified theory for the conductance of a long multimode quantum wire whose finite segment has randomly rough boundaries is developed. It enables one to take account of all mechanisms of wave scattering, both related to boundary roughness…

We use dynamic coherent backscattering to study one of the Anderson mobility gaps in the vibrational spectrum of strongly disordered three-dimensional mesoglasses. Comparison of experimental results with the self-consistent theory of…
