Observation of a single-beam gradient force acoustical trap for elastic particles: acoustical tweezers
D Baresch, JL Thomas, R Marchiano - Physical review letters, 2016 - APS
We demonstrate the trapping of elastic particles by the large gradient force of a single
acoustical beam in three dimensions. Acoustical tweezers can push, pull and accurately …

Taking advantage of multiple scattering to communicate with time-reversal antennas
We present an experimental demonstration showing that, contrary to first intuition, the more
scattering a mesoscopic medium is, the more information can be conveyed through it. We …

Pseudo Angular Momentum and Topological Charge Conservation<? format?> for Nonlinear Acoustical Vortices
JL Thomas, R Marchiano - Physical review letters, 2003 - APS
We study acoustical vortices (AVs) and their connection with optical vortices (OVs). We show
that AVs and OVs have the same properties if the concept of pseudomomentum is used …
