Cold Dark Matter with a large cosmological constant (ΛCDM) appears to fit large scale structure observations well. Of the possible small scale problems, the Central Cusps and Too Many Satellites problems now appear to be at least partly solved, so Angular Momentum has become the most serious remaining CDM problem. There are actually at least two different angular momentum problems: A. Too much ...

We report on molecular frame angular distributions of 2s photoelectrons and electrons emitted by interatomic Coulombic decay from neon dimers. We found that the measured angular distribution of the photoelectron strongly depends on the environment of the cluster. The experimental results are in excellent agreement with frozen core Hartree–Fock calculations. The ICD electrons show slight variati...

Optical antennas are key elements in quantum optics emitting and sensing, and behave wide range applications in optical domain. However, integration of optical antenna radiating orbital angular momentum is still a challenge in nano-scale. We theoretically demonstrate a sub-wavelength phased optical antenna array, which manipulates the distribution of the orbital angular momentum in the near fie...

Electron vortex beams have been predicted to enable atomic scale magnetic information measurement, via transfer of orbital angular momentum. Research so far has focussed on developing production techniques and applications of these beams. However, methods to measure the outgoing orbital angular momentum distribution are also a crucial requirement towards this goal. Here, we use a method to obta...

The coefficients determining the dilepton decay angular distribution of vector particles obey certain positivity constraints and a rotation-invariant identity. These relations are a direct consequence of the covariance properties of angular momentum eigenstates and are independent of the production mechanism. The Lam-Tung relation can be derived as a particular case, simply recognizing that the...

We present convergent-close-coupling CCC calculations of the angular anisotropy parameters 2 , 4 and the recoil ion momentum distribution d /dp in two-photon double ionization TPDI of helium. In a stark contrast to single-photon double ionization SPDI , where the 2 parameter varies widely changing the angular distribution from isotropic to nearly dipole for slow and fast photoelectrons, respect...

E ects of merging histories of protoobjects on angular momentum distribution of present dark matter haloes are analysed. In a analysis of the angular momentum distributions by analytical methods (e.g., Heavens & Peacock 1989, Catelan & Theuns 1996), they have assumed that initially haloes are homogeneous ellipsoids and that the growth of the angular momentum halts at the maximum expansion time ...

The propagation of light through turbid media is of fundamental interest in a number of areas of optical science including atmospheric and oceanographic science, astrophysics and medicine amongst many others. The angular distribution of photons after a single scattering event is determined by the scattering phase function of the material the light is passing through. However, in many instances ...

A critical examination is made of the somewhat loose and incomplete statement that a polar diagram is the Fourier transform of an aperture distribution. By aperture distribution it is necessary to understand, in the two-dimensional case, distribution across the aperture of the component along the aperture plane of the electromagnetic field in the plane of propagation. Furthermore, the concept o...

We consider the problem of high-frequency asymptotics for the time-dependent onedimensional Schrödinger equation with rapidly oscillating initial data. This problem is commonly studied via the WKB method. An alternative method is based on the limit Wigner measure. This approach recovers geometrical optics, but, like the WKB method, it fails at caustics. To remedy this deficiency we employ the s...
