Motion Induced Radiation from a Vibrating Cavity

arXiv:quant-ph/9606029 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.77.615

Abstract

We study the radiation emitted by a cavity moving in vacuum. We give a quantitative estimate of the photon production inside the cavity as well as of the photon flux radiated from the cavity. A resonance enhancement occurs not only when the cavity length is modulated but also for a global oscillation of the cavity. For a high finesse cavity the emitted radiation surpasses radiation from a single mirror by orders of magnitude.
