An analytic method of describing -related quantities in QCD

K. A. Milton, I. L. Solovtsov, O. P. Solovtsova

A model based on the analytic approach to QCD, involving a summation of threshold singularities and taking into account the nonperturbative character of the light quark masses, is…

PT-Symmetric Versus Hermitian Formulations of Quantum Mechanics

Carl M. Bender, Jun-Hua Chen, Kimball A. Milton

A non-Hermitian Hamiltonian that has an unbroken PT symmetry can be converted by means of a similarity transformation to a physically equivalent Hermitian Hamiltonian. This raises…

Green's Dyadic Approach of the Self-Stress on a Dielectric-Diamagnetic Cylinder with Non-Uniform Speed of Light

Ines Cavero-Pelaez, Kimball A. Milton

We present a Green's dyadic formulation to calculate the Casimir energy for a dielectric-diamagnetic cylinder with the speed of light differing on the inside and outside. Although…

Quantum mechanics using Fradkin's representation

K. V. Shajesh, Kimball A. Milton

Fradkin's representation is a general method of attacking problems in quantum field theory, having as its basis the functional approach of Schwinger. As a pedagogical illustration…

Surface Divergences and Boundary Energies in the Casimir Effect

K. A. Milton, I. Cavero-Pelaez, J. Wagner

Although Casimir, or quantum vacuum, forces between distinct bodies, or self-stresses of individual bodies, have been calculated by a variety of different methods since 1948, they…

Local Casimir Energies for a Thin Spherical Shell

Ines Cavero-Pelaez, Kimball A. Milton, Jeffrey Wagner

The local Casimir energy density for a massless scalar field associated with step-function potentials in a 3+1 dimensional spherical geometry is considered. The potential is chosen…
