Emission of photons through cavity mirrors in the absence of external driving

Almut Beige, Antonio Capolupo, Andreas Kurcz +2

We present a mechanism of energy concentration in a system composed by an optical cavity and a large number of strongly confined atoms, which cannot be described in the rotating wa…

Concentrating Energy by Measurement

Almut Beige, Antonio Capolupo, Andreas Kurcz +2

In a recent article [A. Kurcz et al., Phys. Rev. A 81, 063821 (2010)] we predicted an energy concentrating mechanism in composite quantum systems. Its result is a non-zero stationa…

Influence of gravity on the collective molecular dynamics of liquid water: the case of the floating water bridge

Emilio Del Giudice, Giuseppe Vitiello

Quantum electrodynamics (QED) produces a picture of liquid water as a mixture of a low density coherent phase and an high density non-coherent phase. Consequently, the Archimedes p…

Rotating wave approximation and entropy

Andreas Kurcz, Antonio Capolupo, Almut Beige +2

This paper studies composite quantum systems, like atom-cavity systems and coupled optical resonators, in the absence of external driving by resorting to methods from quantum field…

Energy concentration in composite quantum systems

Andreas Kurcz, Antonio Capolupo, Almut Beige +2

The spontaneous emission of photons from optical cavities and from trapped atoms has been studied extensively in the framework of quantum optics. Theoretical predictions based on t…

The role of the electromagnetic field in the formation of domains in the process of symmetry breaking phase transitions

Emilio Del Giudice, Giuseppe Vitiello

In the framework of quantum field theory we discuss the emergence of a phase locking among the electromagnetic modes and the matter components on an extended space-time region. We…
