Probing the Circular Unruh Effect with Cavity-Controlled Lamb Shifts
Yan Peng, Jiawei Hu, Hongwei Yu
The Unruh effect predicts that accelerated observers perceive the inertial vacuum as populated by particles, providing a flat-spacetime analogue of Hawking radiation. Its direct ob…
Acceleration-induced spectral blind spots in stimulated atomic transitions
Jiawei Hu, Hongwei Yu
Stimulated transitions are among the most fundamental processes in light-matter interaction, underlying resonant absorption and emission in atomic systems. Here we show that unifor…
Entanglement dynamics for atoms near a reflecting boundary: Enhancement and suppression by environment-induced interactions
Ying Chen, Hongwei Yu, Jiawei Hu
We investigate how environment-induced interactions influence the entanglement dynamics of two atoms held at fixed positions near a perfectly reflecting boundary. Within the framew…
Quantum gravitodiamagnetic interaction
Di Hao, Jiawei Hu, Hongwei Yu
In the framework of linearized quantum gravity, we investigate the quantum gravitational interaction induced by the gravitodiamagnetic coupling of two massive objects to vacuum flu…
Significant modifications of Lamb shift at small centripetal accelerations
Yan Peng, Jiawei Hu, Hongwei Yu
We investigate the Lamb shift of centripetally accelerated atoms coupled to electromagnetic vacuum fluctuations. Focusing on a very small orbital radius (so that the tangential spe…
Extensive manipulation of transition rates and substantial population inversion of rotating atoms inside a cavity
Yan Peng, Yuebing Zhou, Jiawei Hu +1
We investigate the transition rates of a centripetally accelerated atom inside a high-quality cavity and show that they can be extensively tuned by adjusting the cavity resonance a…
