Geodesic Loewner paths with varying boundary conditions
Robb McDonald
Equations of the Loewner class subject to non-constant boundary conditions along the real axis, are formulated and solved giving the geodesic paths of slits growing in the upper ha…

Dynamics of Hot Bose-Einstein Condensates: stochastic Ehrenfest relations for number and energy damping
Rob G. McDonald, Peter S. Barnett, Fradom Atayee +1
Describing partially-condensed Bose gases poses a long-standing theoretical challenge. We present exact stochastic Ehrenfest relations for the stochastic projected Gross-Pitaevskii…

Brownian motion of a matter-wave bright soliton: realizing a quantum pollen grain
R. G. McDonald, A. S. Bradley
Taking an open quantum systems approach, we derive a collective equation of motion for the dynamics of a matter-wave bright soliton moving through a thermal cloud of a distinct ato…
