Notes on the experimental observation of the Unruh effect
Morgan H. Lynch
The incorporation of classical general relativity into quantum field theory yields a surprising result -- thermodynamic particle production. One such phenomenon, known as the Unruh…
Observation of the Stimulated Quantum Cherenkov Effect
Saar Nehemia, Raphael Dahan, Michael Shentcis +8
As charged particles surpass the speed of light in an optical medium they produce radiation - analogously to the way jet planes surpass the speed of sound and produce a sonic boom.…
Free-Electron Qubits
Ori Reinhardt, Chen Mechel, Morgan Lynch +1
Free-electron interactions with laser-driven nanophotonic nearfields can quantize the electrons' energy spectrum and provide control over this quantized degree of freedom. We propo…
Accelerated-Cherenkov radiation and signatures of radiation reaction
Morgan H. Lynch, Eliahu Cohen, Yaron Hadad +1
In this manuscript we examine an accelerated charged particle moving through an optical medium, and explore the emission of accelerated-Cherenkov radiation. The particle's reaction…
A Theory of Accelerated Quantum Dynamics
Morgan H. Lynch
The role of acceleration in particle physics can provide an alternative method for probing the properties of quantum gravity. To analyze acceleration-induced processes one utilizes…
Accelerated Quantum Dynamics
Morgan H. Lynch
In this paper we establish a formalism for the computation of observables due to acceleration-induced particle physics processes. General expressions for the transition rate, multi…
