A Scattering Approach to the Dynamical Casimir Effect
Mohammad F. Maghrebi, Ramin Golestanian, Mehran Kardar
We develop a unified scattering approach to dynamical Casimir problems which can be applied to both accelerating boundaries, as well as dispersive objects in relative motion. A gen…
Polymer-mediated entropic forces between scale-free objects
Mohammad F. Maghrebi, Yacov Kantor, Mehran Kardar
The number of configurations of a polymer is reduced in the presence of a barrier or an obstacle. The resulting loss of entropy adds a repulsive component to other forces generated…
Spontaneous emission by rotating objects: A scattering approach
Mohammad F. Maghrebi, Robert L. Jaffe, Mehran Kardar
We study the quantum electrodynamics (QED) vacuum in the presence of a body rotating along its axis of symmetry and show that the object spontaneously emits energy if it is lossy.…
