In Newtonian physics, the excitation spectrum of a fluid is the same in all reference frames, up to a trivial shift. In special relativity, this is no longer the case. Relativity of simultaneity causes different inertial observers to…
We investigate the implications of energy-dependence of the speed of photons, one of the candidate effects of quantum-gravity theories that has been most studied recently, from the perspective of observations in different reference frames.…
Although diffractive spreading is an unavoidable feature of all wave phenomena, certain waveforms can attain propagation-invariance. A lesser-explored strategy for achieving optical selfsimilar propagation exploits the modification of the…
Wave dispersion in a pulsar plasma is discussed emphasizing the relevance of different inertial frames, notably the plasma rest frame ${\cal K}$ and the pulsar frame ${\cal K}'$ in which the plasma is streaming with speed $\beta_{\rm s}$.…
While nonlinear optical spectroscopy is becoming more commonly used to study the excited states of nonlinear-optical systems, a general theory of inhomogeneous broadening is rarely applied in lieu of either a simple Lorentzian or Gaussian…
Optical response of crystalline solids is to a large extent driven by excitations that promote electrons among individual bands. This allows one to apply optical and magneto-optical methods to determine experimentally the energy band gap -…
Understanding the behaviour of complex laser systems is an outstanding challenge, especially in the presence of nonlinear interactions between modes. Hidden features, such as the gain distributions and spatial localisation of lasing modes,…
Spectral excitations of ultracold gases of bosonic atoms trapped in one dimensional optical lattices with disorder are investigated by means of the variational cluster approach applied to the Bose-Hubbard model. In particular, qualitatively…
High-resolution numerical simulations are utilized to examine isotropic turbulence in a compressible fluid when long wavelength velocity fluctuations approach light speed. Spectral analysis reveals an inertial sub-range of relativistic…
Zernike polynomials are one of the most widely used mathematical descriptors of optical aberrations in the fields of imaging and adaptive optics. Their mathematical orthogonality as well as isomorphisms with experimentally observable…
It is shown that an aberrated wavefront incident upon a Fabry-Perot optical cavity excites higher order spatial modes in the cavity, and that the spectral width and distribution of these modes is indicative of the type and magnitude of the…
A Lorentz invariant statistical model is presented for rotational fluctuations in the local inertial frame that arise from new quantum degrees of freedom of space-time. The model assumes invariant classical causal structure, and a Planck…
We find the laws for the spreading of the spatial widths (parallel and transverse to the direction of average motion) of the relativistic position probability density for a massive, spinless particle. We find that when the momentum width of…
Weakly scattering random lasers exhibit lasing modes that spatially overlap and can interact strongly via gain saturation. Consequently, lasing in high-threshold modes may be suppressed by strong low-threshold lasing modes. We numerically…
Highly lossy nature of metals has severely limited the scope of practical applications of plasmonics. The conventional approach to circumvent this limitation has been to search for new materials with more favorable dielectric properties…
Nanomechanical and other mesoscopic vibrational systems typically have several nonlinearly coupled modes with different frequencies and with long lifetime. We consider the power spectrum of one of these modes. Thermal fluctuations of the…
Conformally deformed special relativity is mathematically consistent example of a theory with two observer independent scales. As compare with recent DSR proposals, it is formulated starting from the position space. In this work we propose…
We have experimentally studied the distribution of the spatial extent of modes, and the crossover from essentially single-mode to distinctly multi-mode behavior inside a porous gallium phosphide random laser. This system serves as a paragon…
We study bandstructure properties of periodic optical systems composed of lossy and intrinsically dispersive materials. To this end, we develop an analytical framework based on adjoint modes of a lossy periodic electromagnetic system and…
Highly overmoded and periodically loaded structures, such as the iris-line waveguide, offer an attractive solution for the efficient transportation of diffraction-prone THz pulses over long distances (hundreds of meters). This paper…
