Sonoluminescence and the Dynamical Casimir Effect
K. A. Milton
It has been suggested by various authors that the `dynamical Casimir effect' might prove responsible for the production of visible-light photons in the bubble collapse which occurs…
Julian Schwinger and the Casimir Effect: The Reality of Zero-Point Energy
K. A. Milton
Julian Schwinger became interested in the Casimir effect in 1975. His original impetus was to understand the quantum force between parallel plates without the concept of zero point…
Identity of the van der Waals Force and the Casimir Effect and the Irrelevance of these Phenomena to Sonoluminescence
Iver Brevik, V. N. Marachevsky, Kimball A. Milton
We show that the Casimir, or zero-point, energy of a dilute dielectric ball, or of a spherical bubble in a dielectric medium, coincides with the sum of the van der Waals energies b…
The Bjorken Sum Rule in the Analytic Approach to Perturbative QCD
K. A. Milton, I. L. Solovtsov, O. P. Solovtsova
Results of applying analytic perturbation theory (APT) to the Bjorken sum rule are presented. We study the third-order QCD correction within the analytic approach and investigate i…
Analytic Perturbative Approach to QCD
K. A. Milton, I. L. Solovtsov, O. P. Solovtsova
A technique called analytic perturbation theory, which respects the required analytic properties, consistent with causality, is applied to the definition of the running coupling in…
Difficulties with Photonic Searches for Magnetic Monopoles
Leonard Gamberg, George R. Kalbfleisch, Kimball A. Milton
Recently, there have been proposals that the classic Euler-Heisenberg Lagrangian together with duality could be employed to set limits on magnetic monopoles having masses less than…
Massless quantum electrodynamics with a critical point
Carl M. Bender, Kimball A. Milton
Recently, it has been observed that a quantum field theory need not be Hermitian to have a real, positive spectrum. What seems to be required is symmetry under combined parity and…
Analytic Perturbation Theory and Renormalization Scheme Dependence in Tau Decay
K. A. Milton, I. L. Solovtsov, V. I. Yasnov
We apply analytic perturbation theory in next-to-next-to-leading order to inclusive semileptonic -decay and study the renormalization scheme dependence. We argue that the renorm…
