We present a systematic study of $^{6}$Li elastic scattering and total reaction cross sections at incident energies around the Coulomb barrier within the continuum discretized coupled-channels (CDCC) framework, where $^{6}$Li is treated in…
We derive the nonlinear optical conductivity of an isotropic electron fluid at frequencies below the interparticle collision rate. In this regime, governed by hydrodynamics, the conductivity acquires a universal form at any temperature,…
Due consideration of proton optical--model potential (OMP) anomalies at sub-Coulomb energies for medium--weight nuclei is shown to be critical for the analysis of the unprecedented measurement of $^{59}$Cu$(p,\alpha)^{56}$Ni reaction cross…
We investigate quantum properties of light in optical parametric oscillators (OPOs) based on four-wave mixing gain in media with third-order non-linearities. In spite of other competing $\chi^{(3)}$ effects, such as phase modulation,…
We theoretically demonstrate the ability of electron beams to probe the nonlinear photonic response with nanometer spatial resolution, well beyond the capabilities of existing optical techniques. Although the interaction of electron beams…
We present a systematic theory of Coulomb interaction effects in the nonlinear optical processes in semiconductors using a perturbation series in the exciting laser field. The third-order dynamical response consists of phase-space filling…
We analyse the allowed range of values of chi, both in the Standard Model and in models with New Physics, pointing out that a relatively large value of chi, e.g. of order lambda, is only possible in models where the unitarity of the 3x3…
Optical conductivity (OC) can serve as a measure of correlation effects in a wide range of condensed matter systems. We here show that the long-range tail of the Coulomb interaction yields a universal correction to the OC in a…
We theoretically investigate the nonlinearity of trion-polaritons in a two-dimensional material that arises from Coulomb interaction between quasiparticles. To evaluate the interaction constant, we solve a three-body Wannier equation…
We propose a general framework of nonlinear optics induced by non-Abelian Berry curvature in time-reversal-invariant (TRI) insulators. We find that the third-order response of a TRI insulator under optical and terahertz light fields is…
Using Time Independent Density Functional Theory (TIDFT) it is shown that the 2nd order optical susceptibilities of narrow (1nm-2nm) Silicon Nanowires (SiNW) are enhanced due to surface termination. The value of $\chi^{(2)}$ is enhanced up…
We present a modeling of the nonlinear optical response of a metal surface in order to account for recent experimental results from two-color Sum-Frequency Generation experiments on gold. The model allows calculating the surface and bulk…
We investigate whether microscopic cascading of second-order nonlinearities of two molecules in the side-by-side configuration can lead to a third-order molecular nonlinear-optical response that exceeds the fundamental limit. We find that…
The sensitivity of the $^{12}$C$(\vec{\gamma},pd)$ reaction to photon linear polarisation has been determined at MAMI, giving the first measurement of the reaction for a nucleus heavier than $^{3}$He. Photon asymmetries and cross sections…
The $^{12}$C$(\gamma,ppn)$ reaction has been measured for E$_{\gamma}$=150-800 MeV in the first study of this reaction in a target heavier than $^3$He. The experimental data are compared to a microscopic many body calculation. The model,…
Semiclassical methods are used to study the nonlinear interaction of light in vacuum in the context of four wave mixing. This study is motivated by a desire to investigate the possibility of using recently developed powerful ultrashort…
We report time resolved studies and measurement of all the components of the third-order nonlinear optical susceptibility of CS2 at 515 nm using degenerate four wave mixing. The use of a pulse of width 450 fs, which is comparable to the…
We investigate higher order effects in electromagnetic dissociation of neutron halo nuclei using a simple and realistic zero range model for the neutron-core interaction. In the sudden (or Glauber) approximation all orders in the…
Novel measurements of $(\alpha,\gamma)$ and $(\alpha$,n) reaction cross sections on the target nucleus $^{151}$Eu, close to the reaction thresholds, support the setting up of recent parameters of the $\alpha$-particle optical model…
A model study of the singlet excitons in the C60 molecule with emphasis on the Coulomb interaction between excited electron and hole leads to a physical understanding of the interaction effects on the absorption spectra and to a new…
