The 9th century BCE destruction layer at Tell es-Safi/Gath, Israel: integrating macro- and microarchaeology.
(Elsevier, 2011-12)Destruction events in multi-period sites are valuable marker horizons that represent time-synchronous events across the site and sometimes between sites. Destruction layers often preserve rich finds that provide insights ... -
Analytical description of the survival probability of coherent states in regular regimes.
(American Physical Society, 2018)Using coherent states as initial states, we investigate the quantum dynamics of the Lipkin–Meshkov–Glick (LMG) and Dicke models in the semi-classical limit. They are representative models of bounded systems with one- and ... -
Betar and Aelia Capitolina: Symbols of Jewish suffering.

Building a city wall: An administrative perspective.
(Near Eastern Archaeology, 2017)During the Early Bronze Age II/III, Tell eṣ-Ṣâfi/Gath was fortified by a city wall. This wall has been exposed now in several areas, stretching from the acropolis in the west (Area F), alongside the central part of the ... -
Calculation of transition state energies in the hcn–hnc isomerization with an algebraic model.
(American Chemical Society, 2019-10-09)Recent works have shown that the spectroscopic access to highly excited states provides enough information to characterize transition states in isomerization reactions. Here, we show that information about the transition ... -
Caputo standard α-family of maps: Fractional difference vs. fractional
(Chaos: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Nonlinear Science, 2014-06)In this paper, the author compares behaviors of systems which can be described by fractional differential and fractional difference equations using the fractional and fractional difference Caputo standard α-Families of ... -

Chaos enhancement in large-spin chains
(arXiv preprints, 2022-03-31)We study the chaotic properties of a large-spin XXZ chain with onsite disorder and a small number of excitations above the fully polarized state. We show that while the classical limit, which is reached for large spins, ... -
Children’s use of categories and mental states to predict social behavior.
(American Psychological Association, 2014-10)Integrating generic information about categories with knowledge of specific individuals is a critical component of successful inductive inferences. The present study tested whether children’s approach to this task ... -
The cognitive processes underlying moral judgment across development.
(Cognitive Science Society (CSS), 2018)Some moral philosophers have suggested that a basic prohibition against intentional harm ought to be at the core of moral belief systems across human societies. Yet, experimental work suggests ... -
Comment on “Systematic Construction of Counterexamples to the Eigenstate Thermalization Hypothesis”.
(American Physical Society, 2018-07-17) -
The communication of naïve theories of the social world in parent–child conversation.
(Taylor & Francis, 2015-07-13)Three studies examined the communication of naïve theories of social groups in conversations between parents and their 4-year-old children (N=48). Parent-child dyads read and discussed a storybook in which they either ... -
Decay of a thermofield-double state in chaotic quantum systems.
(EDP Sciences, 2018-09)Scrambling in interacting quantum systems out of equilibrium is particularly effective in the chaotic regime. Under time evolution, initially localized information is said to be scrambled as it spreads throughout the entire ... -
Dynamical Detection of Level Repulsion in the One-Particle Aubry-André Model.
(MDPI : Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2020-01-20)Abstract: The analysis of level statistics provides a primary method to detect signatures of chaos in the quantum domain. However, for experiments with ion traps and cold atoms, the energy levels are not as easily ... -
Dynamical signatures of quantum chaos and relaxation time scales in a spin-boson system.
(American Physical Society, 2019-07-31)Quantum systems whose classical counterparts are chaotic typically have highly correlated eigenvalues and level statistics that coincide with those from ensembles of full random matrices. A dynamical manifestation of these ... -
Dynamical signatures of quantum chaos and relaxation timescales in a spin-boson system.
(Philip Allan Publishers Limited, 2019-05-10)Quantum systems whose classical counterparts are chaotic typically have highly correlated eigenvalues and level statistics that coincide with those from ensembles of full random matrices. A dynamical manifestation of these ... -
Dynamics at the many-body localization transition.
(American Physical Society, 2015-07)The isolated one-dimensional Heisenberg model with static random magnetic fields has become paradigmatic for the analysis of many-body localization. Here, we study the dynamics of this system initially prepared in a ... -
The early Bronze Age fortifications at Tell Es-Safi/Gath, Israel.
(Routledge: Taylor & Francis Group, 2016)Tell es-Safi/Gath is a multi-period site located on the border between the Judean foothills (Shephelah) and the southern coastal plain in central Israel, which has been subject to survey and excavations over the last two ... -
Emotions in charter school teaching: Three stories from year one
(LEARN (Canada), 2018)The purpose of this paper is to illuminate the experiences of two recent graduates from an undergraduate initial certification educator preparation program (EPP) who began their first year working for a charter school in ... -
Entanglement in quantum computers described by the XXZ model with defects.
(American Physical Society, 2003-06)We investigate on how to generate maximally entangled states in systems characterized by the Hamiltonian of the XXZ model with defects. Some proposed quantum computers are described by such a model. Defects embedded in ...
