Stochastic particle creation: from the dynamical Casimir effect to cosmology
Matías Mantiñan, Francisco D. Mazzitelli, Leonardo G. Trombetta
We study a stochastic version of the dynamical Casimir effect, computing the particle creation inside a cavity produced by a random motion of one of its walls. We first present a c…

Quantum vacuum fluctuations and the principle of virtual work in inhomogeneous backgrounds
S. A. Franchino-Viñas, M. N. Mantiñan, F. D. Mazzitelli
We discuss several aspects of the stress-energy tensor for a quantum scalar field in an inhomogeneous background, the latter being modeled by a variable mass. Using a perturbative…
