Wave-momentum shaping for moving objects in heterogeneous and dynamic media

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Bakhtiyar Orazbayev, Matthieu Francis Malléjac, Stefan Rotter

Light and sound waves can move objects through the transfer of linear or angular momentum, which has led to the development of optical and acoustic tweezers, with applications ranging from biomedical engineering to quantum optics. Although impressive manip ...

A Spectral Ansatz for The Long-Time Homogenization of The Wave Equation

Matthias Ruf, Matthias Benjamin Ruf

Consider the wave equation with heterogeneous coefficients in the homogenization regime. At large times, the wave interacts in a nontrivial way with the heterogeneities, giving rise to effective dispersive effects. The main achievement of the present wor ...

High-order geometric integrators for the variational Gaussian wavepacket dynamics and application to vibronic spectra at finite temperature

Roya Moghaddasi Fereidani

Molecular quantum dynamics simulations are essential for understanding many fundamental phenomena in physics and chemistry. They often require solving the time-dependent Schrödinger equation for molecular nuclei, which is challenging even for medium-sized ...

Soliton gas: Theory, numerics, and experiments

The concept of soliton gas was introduced in 1971 by Zakharov as an infinite collection of weakly interacting solitons in the framework of Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation. In this theoretical construction of a diluted (rarefied) soliton gas, solitons with ...

Mean flow modeling in high-order nonlinear Schrodinger equations

Debbie Eeltink

The evaluation and consideration of the mean flow in wave evolution equations are necessary for the accurate prediction of fluid particle trajectories under wave groups, with relevant implications in several domains, from the transport of pollutants in the ...

Space-time wave packets with reduced divergence and tunable group velocity generated in free space after multi-mode fiber propagation

Tobias Kippenberg, Maxim Karpov, Hao Song, Xinzhou Su

Previously, space-time wave packets (STWPs) have been gen-erated in free space with reduced diffraction and a tunable group velocity by combining multiple frequency comb lines each carrying a single Bessel mode with a unique wave num-ber. It might be poten ...

Nonlocally-resonant metamaterials

Aleksi Antoine Bossart

In this thesis, we unveil a third design path to manipulate elastic waves within architected media, distinct from the traditional phononic crystal and locally-resonant metamaterial concepts. The core innovation lies in the concept of nonlocal resonances, d ...

Fluid flow through microcracked and fractured granitic reservoirs

Marie Estelle Solange Violay, Lucille Jocelyne Nadine Carbillet, Michael Heap

The permeability of crustal rocks and rock-masses dictates the efficiency of hydrothermal circulation and therefore the productivity of geothermal resources. In this study, we find by monitoring P-wave velocity that thermal microcracking in Lanhélin granit ...

Spin, Charge, and ?-Spin Separation in One-Dimensional Photodoped Mott Insulators

Philipp Georg Werner Seeberger

We show that effectively cold metastable states in one-dimensional photodoped Mott insulators described by the extended Hubbard model exhibit spin, charge, and q-spin separation. Their wave functions in the large on-site Coulomb interaction limit can be ex ...

Lack of Out-of-Plane Dispersion of the Magnetic Excitations of Charge-Stripe Ordered La2−xSrxNiO4+δ

Paul Gregory Freeman, Alexandra Angeline Turrini

The dependence of the magnetic excitations in the out-of-NiO-plane direction of charge stripe ordered La2-xSrxNiO4+delta x = 0.3 and delta = 0.11 +/- 0.01 were investigated by inelastic neutron scattering. No dispersion was observed for the magnetic excita ...

Generation of OAM-carrying space-time wave packets with time-dependent beam radii using a coherent combination of multiple LG modes on multiple frequencies

Tobias Kippenberg, Maxim Karpov, Zhe Zhao, Hao Song, Xinzhou Su

Space-time (ST) wave packets, in which spatial and temporal characteristics are coupled, have gained attention due to their unique propagation characteristics, such as propagation invariance and tunable group velocity in addition to their potential ability ...

Tunability of space-time wave packet carrying tunable and dynamically changing OAM value

Tobias Kippenberg, Maxim Karpov, Hao Song, Xinzhou Su

Space-time (ST) wave packets have gained much interest due to their dynamic optical properties. Such wave packets can be generated by synthesizing frequency comb lines, each having multiple complex-weighted spatial modes, to carry dynamically changing orbi ...
