We investigate elastic, inelastic, and coalescent collisions between two-dimensional flat-top solitons supported by the cubic-quintic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation. Numerical simulations reveal distinct collision regimes ranging from…

In this work, we consider a two-level system (TLS) coupled to a one-dimensional continuum of bosonic modes in a transmission line. Using the master equation approach, a method for determining the photon number distribution of the scattered…

We study the two-step spin crossover in a double-layered elastic model based on transition metal complexes each taking high spin (HS) and low spin (LS) states. Here, only the simplest elastic interactions between adjacent molecules are…

The electrons and phonons in metal films after ultra-short pulse laser heating are in highly non-equilibrium states not only between the electron sub-system and the phonon sub-system but also within the electron sub-system. An…

Recent experiments indicate a connection between the low- and high-frequency noise affecting superconducting quantum systems. We explore the possibilities that both noises can be produced by one ensemble of microscopic modes, made up, e.g.,…

It is frequently observed that even at very low temperatures the number of quasiparticles in superconducting materials is higher than predicted by standard BCS-theory. These quasiparticles can interact with two-level systems, such as…

In present work, a relation that connects the integrated correlation function of a trapped two-particle system to infinite volume particles scattering phase shift is derived. It has the potential to provide an alternative approach for…

Ultrafast laser irradiation of solids leads to a thermodynamic nonequilibrium within and between the electron and phonon subsystems of the material. Due to electron-electron and phonon-phonon collisions, both subsystems relax into…

The term two-dimensional coherent spectroscopy (2DCS) usually refers to experimental setups where a coherently generated electric field in a sample is recorded over many runs as a function of two time variables: the delay $\tau$ between two…

A recently developed Shastry's formalism for energy transport is used to analyze the temporal and spatial behaviors of the energy and heat transport in metals under delta function excitation at the surface. Comparison with Cattaneo's model…

We report on a method for detecting weakly coupled spurious two-level system fluctuators (TLSs) in superconducting qubits. This method is more sensitive that standard spectroscopic techniques for locating TLSs with a reduced data…

We investigate the effect of electronic correlations on the transmission phase of quantum coherent scatterers, considering quantum dots in the Coulomb blockade regime connected to two single-channel leads. We focus on transmission zeros and…

A transition between energy levels at an avoided crossing is known as a Landau-Zener transition. When a two-level system (TLS) is subject to periodic driving with sufficiently large amplitude, a sequence of transitions occurs. The phase…

We study transport and relaxation of spinless fermions with long-range Coulomb interactions at high temperatures through numerical simulations of out-of-equilibrium dynamics. We find that the transport and relaxation are continuously…

Ultrafast laser material processing has received significant attention due to a growing need for the fabrication of miniaturized devices at micro- and nanoscales. The traditional phenomenological laws, such as Fourier's law of heat…

We consider a two-component Fermi gas with a contact interaction from the BCS regime to the unitary limit. Starting from the idea that many-body effects should not depend on short-distance or high-momentum physics which is encoded in the…

The temperature dependence of most solid-state properties is dominated by lattice vibrations, but metals display notable purely electronic effects at low temperature, such as the linear specific heat and the linear entropy, that were…

Two-level system fluctuators (TLS's) in the tunnel barrier of a Josephson junction have recently been demonstrated to cause novel energy splittings in spectroscopic measurements of superconducting phase qubits. With their strong coupling to…

The standard lattice Boltzmann equation (LBE) method usually fails to capture the physical equilibrium state of a two-phase fluid system, i.e., zero velocity and constant chemical potential. Consequently, spurious velocities and…

We calculate self-consistently the mutual dependence of electron correlations and electron-defect scattering for a two dimensional electron gas at finite temperature. We employ an STLS approach to calculate the electron correlations while…
