Detectable Signature of Quantum Friction on a Sliding Particle in Vacuum
Fernando C. Lombardo, Ricardo S. Decca, Ludmila Viotti +1
Spatially separated bodies in relative motion through vacuum experience a tiny friction force known as quantum friction. This force has so far eluded experimental detection due to…
Enhanced decoherence for a neutral particle sliding on a metallic surface in vacuum
Ludmila Viotti, Fernando C. Lombardo, Paula I. Villar
Bodies in relative motion, spatially separated in vacuum, experience a tiny friction force known as quantum friction. This force has eluded experimental detection so far due to its…
Boundary-induced effect encoded in the corrections to the geometric phase acquired by a bipartite two-level system
Ludmila Viotti, Fernando C. Lombardo, Paula I. Villar
We present a bipartite two-level system coupled to electromagnetic quantum vacuum fluctuations through a general dipolar coupling. We derive the master equation in the framework of…
Thermal corrections to quantum friction and decoherence: a Closed-Time-Path approach to atom-surface interaction
Ludmila Viotti, M. Belén Farías, Paula I. Villar +1
In this paper we study the dissipative effects and decoherence induced on a particle moving at constant speed in front of a dielectric plate in quantum vacuum, developing a Closed-…
