Dispersive interaction between an atom and a conducting sphere
M. M. Taddei, T. N. C. Mendes, C. Farina
We calculate the van der Waals dispersive interaction between a neutral but polarizable atom and a perfectly conducting isolated sphere in the nonretarded case. We make use of two…
Magnetic influence on classical dispersion
T. N. C. Mendes, Reinaldo de Melo e Souza, C. Farina
We discuss the Lorentz model for dispersion and absorption of radiation in dilute, linear and isotropic materials. Initially, with the purpose of making the paper as self-contained…
Dispersion forces between an atom and a perfectly conducting wedge
T. N. C. Mendes, F. S. S. Rosa, A. Tenorio +1
We consider the interaction between an electrically polarizable atom in its fundamental state and a wedge constituted by two semi-infinite perfectly conducting plates. Using a form…
Atom-wall dispersive forces from master equation formalism
T. N. C. Mendes, C. Farina
Using the general expressions for level shifts obtained from the master equation for a small system interacting with a large one considered as a reservoir, we calculate the dispers…
A master equation approach for the interaction of an atom with a dielectric semi-infinite medium
T. N. C. Mendes, C. Farina
We use the master equation approach to calculate the energy level shifts of an atom in the presence of a general dielectric semi-infinite medium characterized by a dielectric const…
Casimir-Polder forces from density matrix formalism
T. N. C. Mendes, C. Farina
We use the density matrix formalism in order to calculate the energy level shifts, in second order on interaction, of an atom in the presence of a perfectly conducting wall in the…
