Stokes force on a cylinder in the presence of fluid confinement
Gilles Dolfo, Jacques Vigué, Daniel Lhuillier
In this note, we present Stokes' calculation of the force exerted by the fluid on an oscillating cylinder. While the calculation of the similar problem in the case of the sphere is…

Classical analogue of the continuous transition between the Weisskopf-Wigner exponential decay and the Rabi oscillation
Gilles Dolfo, Jacques Vigué
When a discrete state is coupled to a continuum, the dynamics can be described either by the Weisskopf-Wigner exponential decay or by the Rabi oscillation, depending on the relativ…
