How Phase Transitions induce classical behaviour
R. J. Rivers, F. C. Lombardo
We continue the analysis of the onset of classical behaviour in a scalar field after a continuous phase transition, in which the system-field, the long wavelength order parameter o…
Influence functional approach to decoherence during Inflation
Fernando C. Lombardo
We show how the quantum to classical transition of the cosmological fluctuations produced during inflation can be described by means of the influence functional and the master equa…
Onset of classical behaviour after a phase transition
R. J. Rivers, F. C. Lombardo
We analyze the onset of classical behaviour in a scalar field after a continuous phase transition, in which the system-field, the long wavelength order parameter of the model, inte…
Decoherence induced by zero point fluctuations in quantum Brownian motion
Fernando C. Lombardo, Paula I. Villar
We show a completely analytical approach to the decoherence induced by a zero temperature environment on a Brownian test particle. We consider an Omhic environment bilinearly coupl…
Hertz potentials approach to the dynamical Casimir effect in cylindrical cavities of arbitrary section
Martin Crocce, Diego A. R. Dalvit, Fernando C. Lombardo +1
We study the creation of photons in resonant cylindrical cavities with time dependent length. The physical degrees of freedom of the electromagnetic field are described using Hertz…
Casimir force between eccentric cylinders
Diego A. R. Dalvit, Fernando C. Lombardo, Francisco D. Mazzitelli +1
We consider the Casimir interaction between a cylinder and a hollow cylinder, both conducting, with parallel axis and slightly different radii. The Casimir force, which vanishes in…
