Quantum Caustics for Systems with Quadratic Lagrangians in Multi-Dimensions [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We study quantum caustics in $d$-dimensional systems with quadratic Lagrangians. Based on Schulman's procedure in the path-integral we derive the transition amplitude on caustics in a closed form for generic multiplicity $f$, and thereby complete the ...

Origami constraints on the initial-conditions arrangement of dark-matter caustics and streams

open access: yes, 2012
In a cold-dark-matter universe, cosmological structure formation proceeds in rough analogy to origami folding. Dark matter occupies a three-dimensional 'sheet' of free- fall observers, non-intersecting in six-dimensional velocity-position phase space. At

The Asymmetric Merger of Black Holes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We study event horizons of non-axisymmetric black holes and show how features found in axisymmetric studies of colliding black holes and of toroidal black holes are non-generic and how new features emerge.

Wavefronts, caustic sheets, and caustic surfing in gravitational lensing

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical Physics, 2002
Very little attention has been paid to the properties of optical wavefronts and caustic surfaces due to gravitational lensing. Yet the wavefront-based point of view is natural and provides insights into the nature of the caustic surfaces on a gravitationally lensed lightcone.

Investigating the predictive factors of gastrointestinal lesions due to consumption of household sodium hypochlorite in pediatric and adult Rasht referral hospitals

open access: yesJournal of Current Oncology and Medical Sciences, 2022
Introduction: Sodium hypochlorite is a corrosive substance with an alkaline nature that can lead to intoxication. This study aimed to evaluate the demographic, clinical, and endoscopic findings of swallowing this substance and to investigate the ...

Fractal catastrophes

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2020
We analyse the spatial inhomogeneities (‘spatial clustering’) in the distribution of particles accelerated by a force that changes randomly in space and time.

Catastrophe optics of caustics in single and bilayer graphene: fine structure of caustics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We theoretically study the scattering of a plane wave of a ballistic electron on a circular n-p junction in single and bilayer graphene. We compare the exact wave function inside the junction to that obtained from a semiclassical formula developed in ...

Esophageal burn injuries with alkali in children: A four year comprehensive analysis study

open access: yesIranian Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 2017
Introduction: The incidence of caustic ingestion injuries in developed countries has been decreasing, while it still remains a great concern in developing countries including Iran.

Caustics in Dark Matter Haloes

open access: yes, 2005
Caustics are formally singular structures, with infinite density, that form in collisionless media. The non-negligible velocity dispersion of dark matter particles renders their density finite.

The Impact of Caustic Ingestion on Nutritional Status: Case Report

open access: yesCase Reports in Gastroenterology
Introduction: Caustic injuries remain a major public health concern. Nutritional status plays a pivotal role in determining the outcome. Unfortunately, nutritional care guidelines are not widely implemented in clinical practice, and decisions are often ...
