New insights into the capillary retention force and the work of adhesion
Rafael de la Madrid, Huy Luong, Jacob Zumwalt
We calculate the normal capillary retention force that anchors a drop to a solid surface in the direction perpendicular to the surface, and study the relationship between such forc…
The Gamow-state description of the decay energy spectrum of neutron-unbound O
R. M. Id Betan, R. de la Madrid
We show the feasibility of calculating the decay energy spectrum of neutron emitting nuclei within the Gamow-state description of resonances by obtaining the decay energy spectrum…
The decay widths, the decay constants, and the branching fractions of a resonant state
Rafael de la Madrid
We introduce the differential and the total decay widths of a resonant (Gamow) state decaying into a continuum of stable states. When the resonance has several decay modes, we intr…
Gravitational dispersion in a torsional wave machine
Rafael de la Madrid, Alejandro Gonzalez, George Irwin
We demonstrate that mechanical waves traveling in a torsional, mechanical wave machine exhibit dispersion due to gravity and the discreteness of the medium. We also show that altho…
Time as a dynamical variable in quantum decay
Rafael de la Madrid
We present a theoretical analysis of quantum decay in which the survival probability is replaced by a decay rate that is equal to the absolute value squared of the wave function in…
The Analytic Continuation of the Lippmann-Schwinger Eigenfunctions, and Antiunitary Symmetries
Rafael de la Madrid
We review the way to analytically continue the Lippmann-Schwinger bras and kets into the complex plane. We will see that a naive analytic continuation leads to nonsensical results…
