Beyond Poincaré Stresses: A Modern Quantum Field Theory Take on Hydrogen's Electromagnetic Mass

Qasem Exirifard, Alessio D'Errico, Ebrahim Karimi

We revisit the longstanding electromagnetic mass problem from a modern quantum field theory perspective. Focusing on a system of two widely separated hydrogen atoms, one in an exci…

On the Electromagnetic Mass Dilemma

Qasem Exirifard, Alessio D'Errico, Ebrahim Karimi

We show that a charged sphere moving at a constant velocity exhibits a mass due to electromagnetic radiation, expressed as , where is the electromagn…

Trajectory of a massive localised wave function in a curved spacetime geometry

Qasem Exirifard, Ebrahim Karimi

Propagation of a localised wave function of a massive scalar field is investigated in its rest frame. The complete orthogonal Hermite-Gauss basis is presented, and the Gouy phase a…

Gravitational distortion on photon state at the vicinity of the Earth

Qasem Exirifard, Ebrahim Karimi

As a photon propagates along a null geodesic, the space-time curvature around the geodesic distorts its wave function. We utilise the Fermi coordinates adapted to a general null ge…

Schrödinger equation in a general curved space-time geometry

Qasem Exirifard, Ebrahim Karimi

We consider relativistic quantum field theory in the presence of an external electric potential in a general curved space-time geometry. We utilise Fermi coordinates adapted to the…

Towards Communication in a Curved Spacetime Geometry

Qasem Exirifard, Eric Culf, Ebrahim Karimi

The current race in quantum communication -- endeavouring to establish a global quantum network -- must account for special and general relativistic effects. The well-studied gener…
