Fluctuations of the Retarded Van der Waals Force
Chun-Hsien Wu, Chung-I Kuo, L. H. Ford
The retarded Van der Waals force between a polarizable particle and a perfectly conducting plate is re-examined. The expression for this force given by Casimir and Polder represent…
Quantum Fluctuations of Scalar Field in Conical Space
Chung-I Kuo
We consider vacuum polarization effect of a conformally coupled massless scalar field in the background produced by an idealized straight cosmic string. Using previous criterion we…
A Revised Proof of the Existence of Negative Energy Density in Quantum Field Theory
Chung-I Kuo
Negative energy density is unavoidable in the quantum theory of field. We give a revised proof of the existence of negative energy density unambiguously for a massless scalar field…
Semiclassical Gravity Theory and Quantum Fluctuations
Chung-I Kuo, L. H. Ford
We discuss the limits of validity of the semiclassical theory of gravity in which a classical metric is coupled to the expectation value of the stress tensor. It is argued that thi…
