We obtain the density of states of the finite systems up to L=28 using the Wang-Landau sampling. With the density of states and the Fisher zero approach, we successfully find two different critical tem...<br/>[Phys. Rev.

Waiting time profiles for bath induced spectral jumps in the ground and excited states become different when a molecule, probed by continuous-wave laser field, reaches the steady state. This effect is...<br/>[Phys. Rev.

Simons and Baruch Meerson<br/>We consider a prototypical nonlinear system which can be stabilized by multiplicative noise: an underdamped nonlinear pendulum with a stochastically vibrating pivot. A numerical solution of the pertinent Fokker-Planck equation shows that the upper equilibrium point of the pendulum can become stable ...<br/>[Phys. Rev.
