Vacuum fluctuations, accelerated motion and conformal frames
Marc-Thierry Jaekel, Serge Reynaud
Radiation from a mirror moving in vacuum electromagnetic fields is shown to vanish in the case of a uniformly accelerated motion. Such motions are related to conformal coordinate t…

Conformal Symmetry and Quantum Relativity
Marc-Thierry Jaekel, Serge Reynaud
The relativistic conception of space and time is challenged by the quantum nature of physical observables. It has been known for a long time that Poincaré symmetry of field theory…

Movement and Fluctuations of the Vacuum
Marc-Thierry Jaekel, Serge Reynaud
Quantum fields possess zero-point or vacuum fluctuations which induce mechanical effects, namely generalised Casimir forces, on any scatterer. Symmetries of vacuum therefore raise…
