The lifetime of a metastable state in the transient dynamics of an overdamped Brownian particle is analyzed, both in terms of the mean first passage time and by means of the mean growth rate coefficient. Both quantities feature non…
We consider the static Holstein model, describing a chain of Fermions interacting with a classical phonon field, when the interaction is weak and the density is a rational number. We show that the energy of the system, as a function of the…
A review of the present state of investigations of the pseudospin-electron model (PEM), which is used in the theory of strongly correlated electron systems, is given. The model is used to describe the systems with the locally anharmonic…
In this paper we study metastable states in single- and two-component dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates. We show that this system supports a rich spectrum of symmetries that are remarkably stable despite not being ground states. In a…
We investigate a ionising electronic transition under resonant pumping. We demonstrate that, above a critical value of the pump intensity, a novel metastable electronic bound state is created, which can decay into the free electron…
The non-mesonic weak decay of $\Lambda$--hypernuclei is studied within a one-meson-exchange potential supplemented by a chirally motivated two-pion-exchange mechanism. The effects of final state interactions on the outgoing nucleons are…
We study excitonic states of an atomic impurity in a Fermi gas, i.e., bound states consisting of the impurity and a hole. Previous studies considered bound states of the impurity with particles from the Fermi sea where the holes only formed…
A leading candidate for the extragalactic source of high energy cosmic rays is the Fermi engine mechanism, in which protons confined by magnetic fields are accelerated to very high energy through repeated scattering by plasma shock fronts.…
We study the classical decay of unstable scalar solitons in noncommutative field theory in 2+1 dimensions. This can, but does not have to, be viewed as a toy model for the decay of D-branes in string theory. In the limit that the…
The phases of quantum interference effects in charged lepton production by neutrinos (neutrino oscillations) following pion decay at rest and in flight, muon decay and nuclear $\beta-$decay at rest as well as for `muon oscillations'…
For two-dimensional many-particle systems first-order, second-order, single step continuous, as well as two-step continuous (KTHNY-like) melting transitions have been found in previous studies. Recent computer simulations, using particle…
The thermal and nonthermal pion production by sigma decay and its relation with chiral symmetry restoration in a hot and dense matter are investigated. The nonthermal decay into pions of sigma mesons which are popularly produced in chiral…
Metastability is a ubiquitous phenomenon in non-equilibrium physics and classical stochastic dynamics.It arises when the system dynamics settles in long-lived states before eventually decaying to true equilibria. Remarkably, it has been…
Effective three meson couplings, based in flavor U(3) quark-antiquark interactions, are considered to describe two light neutral axial meson Strong decays, $A \sim f_1(1285)$ and $f_{1S} (1420)$, and the charged rho meson decay in the…
We have observed momentum- and position-resolved spectra and images of the photoluminescence from thermalised and condensed dye-microcavity photons. The spectra yield the dispersion relation and the potential energy landscape for the…
A dynamical study of the decay of a metastable state by quantum tunneling through an anisotropic, non separable, two-dimensional potential barrier is performed by the numerical solution of the time-dependent Schrodinger equation. Initial…
We consider the dynamics of a periodic chain of N coupled overdamped particles under the influence of noise. Each particle is subjected to a bistable local potential, to a linear coupling with its nearest neighbours, and to an independent…
We describe microcanonical phase transitions and instabilities of the ideal Fermi gas in general relativity at nonzero temperature confined in the interior of a spherical shell. The thermodynamic behaviour is governed by the compactness of…
Neutron stars (NSs) are powerful factories for new particles with masses up to the 100 keV range. These compact stars contain significant populations of charged particles, notably protons, electrons and muons. We calculate the emission…
With few open channels and uncomplicated theoretical description, charged pion decays are uniquely sensitive to certain standard model (SM) symmetries, the universality of weak fermion couplings, and to aspects of pion structure and chiral…
