Recently de Boissieu et al. proposed an explanation for the broadening of acoustic modes observed in quasicrystals (QC). It is the transcription of a well-known model used for glasses. We raise two fundamental objections against applying it…
Quasicrystals (QCs) are a class of aperiodic ordered structures that emerge in various systems, from metallic alloys to soft matter and driven non-equilibrium systems. Within a mesoscale theory based on slowly-varying complex amplitudes for…
We investigate vibrational excitation broadening in one dimensional Fibonacci model of quasicrystals (QCs). The chain is constructed from particles with two masses following the Fibonacci inflation rule. The eigenmode spectrum depends…
In glasses, atomic disorder combined with atomic connectivity makes understanding of the nature of the vibrations much more complex than in crystals or molecules. With a simple model, however, it is possible to show how disorder generates…
We compare the harmonic and anharmonic properties of the vibrational modes in 3-dimensional jammed packings of frictionless spheres interacting via repulsive, finite range potentials. A crossover frequency is apparent in the density of…
In quasicrystals, special tiling patterns could give rise to unique physical phenomena such as critical states distinct from periodic systems. In this paper, we study how quasi-periodicity in aperiodic systems results in anomalous phonon…
Glasses have a large excess of low-frequency vibrational modes in comparison with crystalline solids. We show that such a feature is a necessary consequence of the geometry generic to weakly connected solids. In particular, we analyze the…
Quasinormal modes characterise the transient response of static optical cavities. Here, we introduce the notion of a Floquet quasinormal mode to describe transient responses in photonic time crystals. Contrasting their static counterparts,…
A fundamental feature of the quasi-normal modes (QNMs), which describe light interaction with open (leaky) systems like nanoparticles, lies in the question of the completeness of the QNMs representation and in the divergence of their field…
It is shown that the quasi-normal modes arise, in a natural way, when considering the oscillations in unbounded regions by imposing the radiation condition at spatial infinity with a complex wave vector $k$. Hence quasi-normal modes are not…
Dielectric spheres of various sizes may sustain electromagnetic whispering-gallery modes resonating at optical frequencies with very narrow linewidths. Arbitrary small deviations from the spherical shape typically shift and broaden such…
Quasicrystals are characterized by quasi-periodic arrangements of atoms. The description of their mechanics involves deformation and a (so called phason) vector field accounting at macroscopic scale of local phase changes, due to atomic…
The coherence properties of mechanical resonators are often limited by multiple unavoidable forms of loss -- including phonon-phonon and phonon-defect scattering -- which result in the scattering of sound into other resonant modes and into…
The dynamical properties of nuclei, carried by the concept of phonon quasiparticles (QP), are central to the field of condensed matter. While the harmonic approximation can reproduce a number of properties observed in real crystals, the…
The nearly dispersionless, so-called "optical" vibrational modes observed by inelastic neutron scattering from icosahedral Al-Pd-Mn and Zn-Mg-Y quasicrystals are found to correspond well to modes of a continuum elastic sphere that has the…
We propose a simple phenomenological model describing composite crystals, constructed from two parallel sets of periodic inter-penetrating chains. In the harmonic approximation and neglecting thermal fluctuations we find the eigenmodes of…
Acoustic helical dichroism (HD) arises from the interaction between vortex beams carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) and chiral media, yet such chiral sound-matter interactions are typically weak. Here, we employ quasi-bound states in…
We numerically and experimentally achieve quasi-bound states in the continuums (BICs) with high-Q factors in the free-standing metal complementary periodic cross-shaped resonators (CPCRs) at terahertz (THz) frequencies. Such induced…
In the resonance model, high-frequency quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) are supposed to be a consequence of nonlinear resonance between modes of oscillations occurring within the innermost parts of an accretion disk. Several models with a…
We study phonon modes associated with magnetic vortex lattices of finite isospin chiral perturbation theory near the upper critical point by introducing quasimomentum fluctuations to the lattice and calculate dispersion relations associated…
