Vacuum energy density and pressure inside a soft wall

Agam Shayit, S. A. Fulling, T. E. Settlemyre +1

In the study of quantum vacuum energy and the Casimir effect, it is desirable to model the conductor by a potential of the form . This "soft wall" model was proposed so a…

Uniformly accelerated classical sources as limits of Unruh-DeWitt detectors

Gabriel Cozzella, Stephen A. Fulling, André G. S. Landulfo +1

Although the thermal and radiative effects associated with a two-level quantum system undergoing acceleration are now widely understood and accepted, a surprising amount of controv…

Tidal and nonequilibrium Casimir effects in free fall

Justin H. Wilson, Francesco Sorge, Stephen A. Fulling

In this work, we consider a Casimir apparatus that is put into free fall (e.g., falling into a black hole). Working in 1+1D, we find that two main effects occur: First, the Casimir…

Classical and quantum aspects of the radiation emitted by a uniformly accelerated charge: Larmor--Unruh reconciliation and zero-frequency Rindler modes

Andre G. S. Landulfo, Stephen A. Fulling, George E. A. Matsas

The interplay between acceleration and radiation harbors remarkable and surprising consequences. One of the most striking is that the Larmor radiation emitted by a charge can be se…

Unruh Acceleration Radiation Revisited

J. S. Ben-Benjamin, M. O. Scully, S. A. Fulling +8

When ground-state atoms are accelerated and the field with which they interact is in its normal vacuum state, the atoms detect Unruh radiation. We show that atoms falling into a bl…

Casimir forces in inhomogeneous media: renormalization and the principle of virtual work

Yang Li, Kimball A. Milton, Xin Guo +2

We calculate the Casimir forces in two configurations, namely, three parallel dielectric slabs and a dielectric slab between two perfectly conducting plates, where the dielectric m…
