We examine the connection between the dwell time of a quantum particle in a region of space and flux-flux correlations at the boundaries. It is shown that the first and second moments of a flux-flux correlation function which generalizes a previous proposal by Pollak and Miller [E. Pollak and W. H. Miller, Phys. Rev. Lett. {bf 53}, 115 (1984)], agree with the corresponding moments of the dwell-time distribution, whereas the third and higher moments do not. We also discuss operational approaches and approximations to measure the flux-flux correlation function and thus the second moment of the dwell time, which is shown to be characteristically quantum, and larger than the corresponding classical moment even for freely moving particles.

We put forward several inherently quantum characteristics of the dwell time, and propose an operational method to detect them. The quantum dwell time is pointed out to be a conserved quantity, totally bypassing Paulis theorem. Furthermore, the quantu
m dwell time in a region for one dimensional motion is doubly degenerate. In presence of a potential barrier, the dwell time becomes bounded, unlike the classical quantity. By using off-resonance coupling to a laser we propose an operational method to measure the absorption by a complex potential, and thereby the average time spent by an incoming atom in the laser region.
The general and explicit relation between the phase time and the dwell time for quantum tunneling of a relativistically propagating particle is investigated and quantified. In analogy with previously obtained non-relativistic results, it is shown tha
t the group delay can be described in terms of the dwell time and a self-interference delay. Lessons concerning the phenomenology of the relativistic tunneling are drawn.
Particle beams provided by accelerators occupy a finite volume of the four dimensional transverse phase space. The latter is spanned by the four degrees of freedom, i.e., horizontal/vertical position and momentum. This volume is referred to as emitta
nce. Horizontal and vertical emittances are obtained through projections onto the two transverse sub-phase spaces. Eigen-emittances are obtained from the latter by removing all horizontal-vertical correlations through an appropriate beam optics section. Canonical vorticity flux is used for instance for modelling dynamics of tubes formed by magnetic field lines and particle currents embedded into plasmas. This report is on the relation of eigen-emittances and canonical vorticity flux. Change of beam eigen-emittances is equivalent to change of beam canonical vorticity flux.
Heat exchanges are the essence of Thermodynamics. In order to investigate non-equilibrium effects like quantum coherence and correlations in heat flows we introduce the concept of apparent temperature. Its definition is based on the expression of the
heat flow between out-of-equilibrium quantum systems. Such apparent temperatures contain crucial information on the role and impact of correlations and coherence in heat exchanges. In particular, both behave as populations, affecting dramatically the population balance and therefore the apparent temperatures and the heat flows. We show how seminal results can be re-obtained, offering an interesting alternative point of view. We also present new predictions and suggest a simple experiment to test them. Our results show how quantum and non-equilibrium effects can be used advantageously, finding applications in quantum thermal machine designs and non-equilibrium thermodynamics but also in collective-effect phenomena.
A recent study carried out on high sensitivity SUNRISE/IMAX data has reported about the existence of areas of limited flux emergence in the quiet Sun. By exploiting an independent and longer (4 hours) data set acquired by HINODE/SOT, we further inves
tigate these regions by analysing their spatial distribution and relation with the supergranular flow. Our findings, while confirming the presence of these calm areas, also show that the rate of emergence of small magnetic elements is largely suppressed at the locations where the divergence of the supergranular plasma flows is positive. This means that the dead calm areas previously reported in literature are not randomly distributed over the solar photosphere but they are linked to the supergranular cells themselves. These results are discussed in the framework of the recent literature.
