Vacuum local and global electromagnetic self-energies for a point-like and an extended field source
Roberto Passante, Lucia Rizzuto, Salvatore Spagnolo
We consider the electric and magnetic energy densities (or equivalently field fluctuations) in the space around a point-like field source in its ground state, after having subtract…
Harmonic oscillator model for the atom-surface Casimir-Polder interaction energy
Roberto Passante, Lucia Rizzuto, Salvatore Spagnolo +2
In this paper we consider a quantum harmonic oscillator interacting with the electromagnetic radiation field in the presence of a boundary condition preserving the continuous spect…
Casimir-Polder forces, boundary conditions and fluctuations
Riccardo Messina, Roberto Passante, Lucia Rizzuto +2
We review different aspects of the atom-atom and atom-wall Casimir-Polder forces. We first discuss the role of a boundary condition on the interatomic Casimir-Polder potential betw…
