Is the H Atom Surrounded by A Cloud of Virtual Quanta Due to the Lamb Shift?
G. Jordan Maclay
\abstract{The Lamb shift, one of the most fundamental interactions in atomic physics, arises from the interaction of H atoms with the electromagnetic fluctuations of the quantum va…
New Insights into the Lamb Shift: The Spectral density of the Shift
G. Jordan Maclay
In an atom, the interaction of a bound electron with the vacuum fluctuations of the electromagnetic field leads to complex shifts in the energy levels of the electron, with the rea…
Dynamical Symmetries of the H Atom, One of the Most Important Tools Of Modern Physics: SO(4) to SO(4,2), Background, Theory, and Use in Calculating Radiative Shifts
G. Jordan Maclay
Understanding the hydrogen atom has been at the heart of modern physics. Exploring the symmetry of the most fundamental two body system has led to advances in atomic physics, quant…
The Role of Vacuum Fluctuations and Symmetry in the Hydrogen Atom in Quantum Mechanics and Stochastic Electrodynamics (SED)
G. Jordan Maclay
Stochastic Electrodynamics (SED) has had success modeling black body radiation, the harmonic oscillator, the Casimir effect, van der Waals forces, diamagnetism, and uniform acceler…
Testing a Quantum Inequality with a Meta-analysis of Data from Squeezed Light
G. Jordan Maclay, Eric W. Davis
In quantum field theory, coherent states can be created that have negative energy density, meaning it is below that of empty space, the free quantum vacuum. If no restrictions exis…
Model for Entangled States with Spin-Spin Interaction
Yakir Aharonov, Jeeva Anandan, G. Jordan Maclay +1
A system consisting of two neutral spin 1/2 particles is analyzed for two magnetic field perturbations: 1) an inhomogeneous magnetic field over all space, and 2) external fields ov…
Of Some Theoretical Significance: Implications of Casimir Effects
G. Jordan Maclay, Heidi Fearn, Peter W. Milonni
In his autobiography Casimir barely mentioned the Casimir effect, but remarked that it is "of some theortical significance." We will describe some aspects of Casimir effects that a…
