Aberrations analysis of a Focused Plenoptic Camera

Toralf Scharf, Alessandro Grosso

A Focused Plenoptic Camera in Galilean configuration is studied and its aberrations behavior is interpreted with the Nodal Aberration Theory (NAT). Sequential ray tracing is applied to individual optical channels constituted by the camera objective and ind ...

Time reversal and symmetries of time correlation functions

Sara Bonella, Alessandro Coretti

The time reversal invariance of classical dynamics is reconsidered in this paper with specific focus on its consequences for time correlation functions and associated properties such as transport coefficients. We show that, under fairly common assumptions ...

Nanophotonic Platforms for Enhanced Chiral Sensing

Hatice Altug, Kosmas Tsakmakidis, Ershad Mohammadi

Chirality plays an essential role in life, providing unique functionalities to a wide range of biomolecules, chemicals, and drugs, which makes chiral sensing and analysis critically important. The wider application of chiral sensing continues to be constra ...

The effect of “objecthood” in the Ebbinghaus illusion

Michael Herzog, Aline Françoise Cretenoud, Einat Rashal

In the Ebbinghaus illusion, observers overestimate the size of a target when it is surrounded by large flakers and compared with a control target surrounded by small flankers. We examined whether “objecthood” – the degree to which an object is a cohesive e ...

Noether Theorems and Quantum Anomalies

Tudor Ratiu

A quantum anomaly is the breaking of symmetry with respect to some transformations after the quantization of a classical Hamiltonian or Lagrangian system. It is shown that both the Noether theorems (including their infinite-dimensional versions) and the ex ...

Antihydrogen accumulation for fundamental symmetry tests

Shirit Cohen

Antihydrogen, a positron bound to an antiproton, is the simplest anti-atom. Its structure and properties are expected to mirror those of the hydrogen atom. Prospects for precision comparisons of the two, as tests of fundamental symmetries, are driving a vi ...

The symmetry of partner modelling

Pierre Dillenbourg, Nicolas Nova, Séverin Lemaignan, Mirweis Sangin, Gaëlle Molinari

Collaborative learning has often been associated with the construction of a shared understanding of the situation at hand. The psycholinguistics mechanisms at work while establishing common grounds are the object of scientific controversy. We postulate tha ...

Bloch theorem with revised boundary conditions applied to glide and screw symmetric, quasi-one-dimensional structures

Florian Paul Robert Maurin

Bloch theorem is useful for analyzing wave propagation in periodic systems. It has been widely used to determine the energy bands of various translationally-periodic crystals and with the advent of nanoscale structures like nanotubes, it has been extended ...

Perturbative and non-perturbative aspects of RG flows in quantum field theory

Lorenzo Vitale

This thesis explores two aspects of the renormalization group (RG) in quantum field theory (QFT). In the first part we study the structure of RG flows in general Poincaré-invariant, unitary QFTs, and in particular the irreversibility properties and the rel ...

Non-Zhang-Rice Singlet Character of the First Ionization State of T-CuO

Simon Karl Moser

We argue that tetragonal CuO (T-CuO) has the potential to finally settle long-standing modeling issues for cuprate physics. We compare the one-hole quasiparticle (qp) dispersion of T-CuO to that of cuprates, in the framework of the strongly correlated (U-d ...
