Effective microscopic models for sympathetic cooling of atomic gases
Roberto Onofrio, Bala Sundaram
Thermalization of a system in the presence of a heat bath has been the subject of many theoretical investigations especially in the framework of solid-state physics. In this settin…
Ehrenfest approach to open double-well dynamics
Stephen Choi, Roberto Onofrio, Bala Sundaram
We consider an Ehrenfest approximation for a particle in a double-well potential in the presence of an external environment schematized as a finite resource heat bath. This allows…
Muonic hydrogen as a quantum gravimeter
Roberto Onofrio
High precision spectroscopy of muonic hydrogen has recently led to an anomaly in the Lamb shift, which has been parametrized in terms of a proton charge radius differing by seven s…
Higgs shifts from electron-positron annihilations near neutron stars
Gary A. Wegner, Roberto Onofrio
We discuss the potential for using neutron stars to determine bounds on the Higgs-Kretschmann coupling by looking at peculiar shifts in gamma-ray spectroscopic features. In particu…
