Capture of the lamb: Diffusing predators seeking a diffusing prey
... What is the survival probability of a diffusing lamb which is hunted by N hungry lions? Although this capture process is appealingly simple to define 共see Fig. 1兲, its long-time behavior1–3 poses a theoretical challenge because of the delicate interplay between the positions of the lamb and the clos ...

In particle physics the natural question sounds as what is it that determines the mass of a given particle and how is this mass related to the mass of other particles.55 The partial answer to this question has been given within the frame work of a broken symmetry concept.

Quantifying Entanglement
... The central problem we explore in this essay is the quantification of entanglement. For starters (chapter 1), we give some historical background and explain exactly what entanglement is. Next (chapter 2), we move to the main question, namely, how one goes about prescribing and then calculating measu ...
