The interest in using optical transition radiation (OTR) in high energy (multiGeV) beam diagnostics has motivated theoretical and experimental investigations on the limitations brought by diffraction on the attainable resolution. This paper…
Propagation of P and SV waves in an elastic solid containing randomly distributed inclusions in a half-space is investigated. The approach is based on a multiple scattering analysis similar to the one proposed by Fikioris and Waterman for…
We consider systems of particles hopping stochastically on $d$-dimensional lattices with space-dependent probabilities. We map the master equation onto an evolution equation in a Fock space where the dynamics are given by a quantum…
Weak Gaussian perturbations on a plane wave background could trigger lots of rogue waves, due to modulational instability. Numerical simulations showed that these rogue waves seemed to have similar unit structure. However, to the best of…
The average power spectrum of a pulse reflected by a disordered medium embedded in an N-mode waveguide decays in time with a power law t^(-p). We show that the exponent p increases from 3/2 to 2 after N^2 scattering times, due to the onset…
We consider the problem of recovering signals from their power spectral density. This is a classical problem referred to in literature as the phase retrieval problem, and is of paramount importance in many fields of applied sciences. In…
We report optical fiber experiments allowing to investigate integrable turbulence in the focusing regime of the one dimensional nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation (1D-NLSE). Our experiments are very similar in their principle to water tank…
We study the electromagnetic transmission $T$ through one-dimensional (1D) photonic heterostructures whose random layer thicknesses follow a long-tailed distribution --L\'evy-type distribution. Based on recent predictions made for 1D…
We present a perturbative approach to disordered systems in one spatial dimension that accesses the full range of phase disorder and clarifies the connection between localization and phase information. We consider a long chain of…
Motivated by modern applications of light detection and ranging (LIDAR), we study the model of an optical receiver based on an avalanche photo-diode (APD), followed by electronic circuitry for detection of reflected optical signals and…
The propagation of monochromatic light through a scattering medium produces speckle patterns in reflection and transmission, and the apparent randomness of these patterns prevents direct imaging through thick turbid media. Yet, since…
We analyze the refocusing properties of time reversed waves that propagate in two different media during the forward and backward stages of a time-reversal experiment. We consider two regimes of wave propagation modeled by the paraxial wave…
We investigate the analytic continuation of wave equations into the complex position plane. For the particular case of electromagnetic waves we provide a physical meaning for such an analytic continuation in terms of a family of closely…
Signal propagation in an optical fiber can be described by the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation (NLSE). The NLSE has no known closed-form solution, mostly due to the interaction of dispersion and nonlinearities. In this paper, we present a…
Statistical properties of coherent radiation propagating in a quasi - 1D random media is studied in the framework of random matrix theory. Distribution functions for the total transmission coefficient and the angular transmission…
Transport in complex systems is characterized by a fractal dimension -- the walk dimension -- that indicates the diffusive or anomalous nature of the underlying random walk process. Here we report on the experimental retrieval of this key…
We present an analysis of enhanced wave transmission through random media with mirror symmetry about a reflecting barrier. The mathematical model is the acoustic wave equation and we consider two setups, where the wave propagation is along…
We propose and demonstrate a new phase retrieval method for imaging through random media. Although methods to recover the Fourier amplitude through random distortions are well established, recovery of the Fourier phase has been a more…
We present a theoretical study of frequency correlations of light backscattered from a random scattering medium. This statistical quantity provides insight into the dynamics of multiple scattering processes accessible both, in theoretical…
We study a 1D system with a power-law quasiparticle dispersion $\propto |k|^\alpha\sign k$ in the presence of a short-range-correlated random potential and demonstrate that for $\alpha<1/2$ it exhibits a disorder-driven quantum phase…
