Modulational instability of spatially broadband nonlinear optical pulses in four-state atomic systems
M. Marklund, P. K. Shukla, R. Bingham +1
The modulational instability of broadband optical pulses in a four-state atomic system is investigated. In particular, starting from a recently derived generalized nonlinear Schröd…
Multi-band Astronomy with LISA
G. Branduardi-Raymont, G. Ramsay, C. Wang +2
We discuss astrophysical scenarios relevant to the generation of gravitational waves (GW) and effects expected to arise from the interaction of GW and electromagnetic (EM) radiatio…
Probing QCD Corrections to QED Effects Through Optical Experiments in Vacuum
J. Dias de Deus, P. Castelo Ferreira, J. Tito Mendonca
A numerical estimative error of the magnitude of the vacuum polarization effect due to electron-positron by a factor of in [PRL97(2006)100403; 269901(E)] invalidates the stu…
Photon acceleration in vacuum
J. T. Mendonca, M. Marklund, P. K. Shukla +1
A new process associated with the nonlinear optical properties of the electromagnetic vacuum, as predicted by quantum electrodynamics, is described. This can be called photon accel…
Statistical properties of the continuum Salerno model
M. Marklund, P. K. Shukla, R. Bingham +1
The statistical properties of the Salerno model is investigated. In particular, a comparison between the coherent and partially coherent wave modes is made for the case of a random…
Analysis of four-wave mixing of high-power lasers for the detection of elastic photon-photon scattering
J. Lundin, M. Marklund, E. Lundstrom +5
We derive expressions for the coupling coefficients for electromagnetic four-wave mixing in the non-linear quantum vacuum. An experimental setup for detection of elastic photon-pho…
Higher Harmonics in Non-Linear Vacuum from QED Effects Without Low Mass Intermediate Particles
J. Tito Mendonca, J. Dias de Deus, P. Castelo Ferreira
We show that in the presence of a slowly rotating strong transverse magnetic field there is an infinite spectrum of harmonic wave functions due to the first order QED correct…
Quantum gravitational decoherence of matter waves
Charles H. -T. Wang, Robert Bingham, J. Tito Mendonca
One of the biggest unsolved problems in physics is the unification of quantum mechanics and general relativity. The lack of experimental guidance has made the issue extremely evasi…
Generalized Proca Equations and Vacuum Current from Breaking of Ue(1)xUg(1) Gauge Symmetry
P. Castelo Ferreira, J. T. Mendonca
Withdrawn: A short-proof of the non-existence of quartic terms in the Lagrangian of Ue(1)xUg(1) is given in the Addendum of hep-th/0601166 (Europhys.Lett.85:59901,2009).
