Vacuum induced dispersions on the motion of test particles in dimensions
G. H. S. Camargo, V. A. De Lorenci, C. C. H. Ribeiro +1
When the vacuum state of a scalar or electromagnetic field is modified by the presence of a reflecting boundary, an interacting test particle undergoes velocity fluctuations. Such…
Remarks on the influence of quantum vacuum fluctuations over a charged test particle near a conducting wall
V. A. De Lorenci, C. C. H. Ribeiro
Quantum vacuum fluctuations of the electromagnetic field in empty space seem not to produce observable effects over the motion of a charged test particle. However, when a change in…
On the effective acoustic geometry for relativistic viscous fluids
E. Bittencourt, V. A. De Lorenci, R. Klippert +1
Hadamard-Papapetrou method of field discontinuities is here employed in order to determine the effective metric that describes the propagation of acoustic perturbations in isentrop…
A Model for Lightcone Fluctuations due to Stress Tensor Fluctuations
C. H. G. Bessa, V. A. De Lorenci, L. H. Ford +1
We study a model for quantum lightcone fluctuations in which vacuum fluctuations of the electric field and of the squared electric field in a nonlinear dielectric material produce…
