Quantum Zeno dynamics: mathematical and physical aspects

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the physical and mathematical aspects of the quantum quantum Zeno effect and propose alternative strategies to obtain a quantum quantum zeno dynamics and show that they are physically equivalent.

Factorization: little or great algorithm?

TL;DR: The progress of the factorization method since the 1935 work of Dirac is briefly reviewed in this article, where the authors suggest that factorization seems an autonomous "driving force", offering substantial support to the present day Darboux and Backlund approaches.

Time in quantum mechanics

TL;DR: In this paper, it is argued that the problem is only apparent and that there is nothing in the formalism of quantum mechanics that forces us to treat position and time differently, and that the apparent problem is caused by the dominant role point particles play in physics and can be traced back to classical mechanics.

Scattering, reflection and impedance of waves in chaotic and disordered systems with absorption

TL;DR: In this paper, a nonlinear supersymmetric σ-model is used to derive closed-form analytic expressions for the distribution of reflection probability in a generic disordered system.

Tracing and controlling electronic dynamics in atoms and molecules by attosecond pulses

TL;DR: In this paper, the main theoretical methods and concepts in strong field and attosecond physics were reviewed, and a number of topics including generation of xuv light sources, the probe and steering of the electron motion in the combination of XUV and IR pulses, the photoionization time delay, the electron-electron correlation dynamics in multiple-electRON atoms and molecules, etc.
