Quantum Vacuum Sagnac Effect
Guilherme C. Matos, Reinaldo de Melo e Souza, Paulo A. Maia Neto +1
We report on the quantum electrodynamical analogue of a Sagnac phase induced by the fast rotation of a neutral nanoparticle onto atomic waves propagating in its vicinity. The quant…
Microscopic dynamical Casimir effect
Reinaldo de Melo e Souza, François Impens, Paulo A. Maia Neto
We consider an atom in its ground state undergoing a non-relativistic oscillation in free space. The interaction with the electromagnetic quantum vacuum leads to two effects to lea…
Thinking anew causality problems for the radiation reaction force
Reinaldo de Melo e Souza, J. A. Helayël Neto
In this work, we analyze a Lagrangian formalism recently proposed to approach the issue of the Abraham-Lorentz force. Instead of involving only position and velocity, as usual in C…
The influence of a surface in the non-retarded interaction between two atoms
Reinaldo de Melo e Souza, W. J. M. Kort-Kamp, F. S. S. Rosa +1
In this work we obtain analytical expressions for the non-additivity effects in the dispersive interaction between two atoms and perfectly conducting surface of arbitrary shape in…
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…
Multipole radiation fields from the Jefimenko equation for the magnetic field and the Panofsky-Phillips equation for the electric field
R. de Melo e Souza, M. V. Cougo-Pinto, C. Farina +1
We show how to obtain the first multipole contributions to the electromagnetic radiation emited by an arbitrary localized source directly from the Jefimenko equation for the magnet…
