Floquet phonon lasing in multimode optomechanical systems
Laura Mercadé, Karl Pelka, Roel Burgwal +3
Dynamical radiation pressure effects in cavity optomechanical systems give rise to self-sustained oscillations or `phonon lasing' behavior, producing stable oscillators up to GHz f…

Chimera states in small disordered optomechanical arrays
Karl Pelka, Vittorio Peano, André Xuereb
Synchronization of weakly-coupled non-linear oscillators is a ubiquitous phenomenon that has been observed across the natural sciences. We study the dynamics of optomechanical arra…

Prime Number Decomposition using the Talbot Effect
Karl Pelka, Jasmin Graf, Thomas Mehringer +1
We report on prime number decomposition by use of the Talbot effect, a well-known phenomenon in classical near field optics whose description is closely related to Gauss sums. The…
