• #### Laser Pulse Duration Is Critical For the Generation of Plasmonic Nanobubbles ﻿

(2014)
Plasmonic nanobubbles (PNBs) are transient vapor nanobubbles generated in liquid around laser-overheated plasmonic nanoparticles. Unlike plasmonic nanoparticles, PNBs’ properties are still largely unknown due to their ...
• #### Laser-cooling limits and single-ion spectroscopy ﻿

(1987)
The limitations to the achievement of low kinetic energies for laser cooling of single ions confined in electromagnetic traps are discussed. Sideband cooling of an ion in an rf (Paul) trap is reexamined including the effects ...

(1999)
A slow atom source, which does not rely on lasers, has been developed and characterized. The device, acting as an atomic low-pass velocity filter, utilizes permanent magnets to passively select the slow atoms present in a ...
• #### Learning physics of living systems from Dictyostelium ﻿

(2014)
Unlike a new generation of scientists that are being trained directly to work on the physics of living systems, most of us more senior members of the community had to find our way from other research areas. We all have our ...
• #### Lie algebraic similarity transformed Hamiltonians for lattice model systems ﻿

(2015)
We present a class of Lie algebraic similarity transformations generated by exponentials of two-body on-site Hermitian operators whose Hausdorff series can be summed exactly without truncation. The correlators are defined ...
