From Quasiperiodicity to a Complete Coloring of the Kohmoto Butterfly
AbstractThe spectra of the Kohmoto model give rise to a fractal phase diagram, known as the Kohmoto butterfly. The butterfly encapsulates the spectra of all periodic Kohmoto Hamiltonians, whose index invariants are sought after. Topological methods - such as Chern numbers - are ill defined due to the discontinuous potential, and hence fail to provide index invariants. This

Probing New Hadronic Forces with Heavy Exotic Atoms
AbstractWe explore the potential of precision spectroscopy of heavy exotic atoms where electrons are substituted by negative hadrons to detect new force carriers with hadronic couplings. The selected transitions are unaffected by nuclear contact terms, thus enabling highly accurate calculations using bound-state QED, provided that the nuclear polarization is under control

Superluminal Correlations in Ensembles of Optical Phase Singularities
AbstractPhase singularities are universal features found across diverse wave systems. Their ensembles exhibit distance correlations governing exotic material phases. However, the full correlations in phase-space have remained unexplored and experimentally inaccessible. Here, we directly measure the ultrafast dynamics of optical singularity ensembles, capturing their phase-space

A fiber-loop laser with a cooled erbium-doped section
AbstractAn optical comb featuring an unusual structure has been recently observed in a fiber-loop laser running at cryogenic temperatures. In the present work, the effect of optical polarization on the operation of the laser is explored. Multi--mode lasing with a relatively high degree of inter--mode coherency is experimentally demonstrated. The setup can be used for applications

Microwave Spectroscopy of the Muonium $2S_{1/2}-2P_{3/2}$ Fine Structure Interval
AbstractWe report a microwave spectroscopy measurement of the muonium $2S_{1/2}-2P_{3/2}$ fine structure transition, yielding a transition frequency of $9871.0 \pm 7.0~\mathrm{MHz}$, in agreement with state-of-the-art QED predictions within one standard deviation. In combination with the recent Lamb shift result, the $2P_{1/2}-2P_{3/2}$ splitting is determined, improving the

Cavity-Controlled High Harmonic Generation
AbstractEmploying non-Hermitian Floquet theory, the strong-field process of high harmonic (HH) generation by a classical continuous-wave field irradiating ground-state atom is discovered to be controllable by placing the irradiated atom inside a single-mode quantum cavity initiated even with a single photon. Judicious cavity coupling of cavity-free photo-induced atomic Floquet

Programmable control of the spatiotemporal quantum noise of light
AbstractOptoelectronic systems based on multiple modes of light can often exceed the performance of their single-mode counterparts. However, multimode nonlinear interactions often introduce considerable amounts of noise, limiting the ultimate performance of these systems. It is therefore crucial to develop ways to simultaneously control complex nonlinear interactions while also

Mixing of Surface and Bulk Optical Nonlinearities via Surface Plasmon Polaritons
AbstractWe present controlled interplay between the surface second-order and bulk third-order nonlinearities of gold, utilizing wave mixing between surface plasmons on the metal-air interface and free-space photons. By tuning the nonlinear interactions, we demonstrate experimentally that photons emerging from these inherently different mechanisms can interfere, while both their
