Spontaneous Torque on an Inhomogeneous Chiral Body out of Thermal Equilibrium
Kimball A. Milton, Nima Pourtolami, Gerard Kennedy
In a previous paper we showed that an inhomogeneous body in vacuum will experience a spontaneous force if it is not in thermal equilibrium with its environment. This is due to the…
Cross-sectional Dependence in Idiosyncratic Volatility
Ilze Kalnina, Kokouvi Tewou
This paper introduces an econometric framework for analyzing cross-sectional dependence in the idiosyncratic volatilities of assets using high frequency data. We first consider the…
Quantum Self-Propulsion of an Inhomogeneous Object out of Thermal Equilibrium
Kimball A. Milton, Nima Pourtolami, Gerard Kennedy
In an earlier paper, we explored how quantum vacuum torque can arise: a body or nanoparticle that is out of thermal equilibrium with its environment experiences a spontaneous torqu…
A nearly Dirichlet Higgs for lower-scale warped extra dimensions
Mariana Frank, Nima Pourtolami, Manuel Toharia
We consider a minimal extension of the Standard Model in warped extra dimensions, with fields propagating in the bulk including a bulk SM-like Higgs doublet. We show that the Higgs…
Quantum friction in the presence of a perfectly conducting plate
Xin Guo, Kimball A. Milton, Gerard Kennedy +1
A neutral but polarizable particle at rest near a perfectly conducting plate feels a force normal to the surface of the plate, which tends to pull the particle towards the plate. T…
Additional Higgs bosons: Supersymmetry or warped extra dimensions?
Mariana Frank, Nima Pourtolami, Manuel Toharia
We investigate and compare additional CP-even, CP-odd and charged scalar states appearing in two popular Beyond the Standard Model scenarios. We focus on the simplest possible Higg…
Casimir Self-Entropy of Nanoparticles with Classical Polarizabilities: Electromagnetic Field Fluctuations
Yang Li, Kimball A. Milton, Prachi Parashar +3
Not only are Casimir interaction entropies not guaranteed to be positive, but also, more strikingly, Casimir self-entropies of bodies can be negative. Here, we attempt to interpret…
Energetics of quantum vacuum friction. II: Dipole fluctuations and field fluctuations
Xin Guo, Kimball A. Milton, Gerard Kennedy +3
As a second paper in series with arXiv:2108.01539, we discuss here quantum vacuum friction on an intrinsically dissipative particle. The friction arises not only from the field flu…
The energetics of quantum vacuum friction: Field fluctuations
Xin Guo, Kimball A. Milton, Gerard Kennedy +3
Quantum fluctuations can induce a friction on a neutral but polarizable particle and cause it to radiate energy even if the particle is moving in free space filled with blackbody r…
