Energy Flux Correlations and Moving Mirrors
L. H. Ford, Thomas A. Roman
We study the quantum stress tensor correlation function for a massless scalar field in a flat two-dimensional spacetime containing a moving mirror. We construct the correlation fun…
Effects of Quantum Stress Tensor Fluctuations with Compact Extra Dimensions
J. Borgman, L. H. Ford
The effects of compact extra dimensions upon quantum stress tensor fluctuations are discussed. It is argued that as the compactification volume decrease, these fluctuations increas…
Vacuum fluctuations and Brownian motion of a charged test particle near a reflecting boundary
Hongwei Yu, L. H. Ford
We study the Brownian motion of a charged test particle coupled to electromagnetic vacuum fluctuations near a perfectly reflecting plane boundary. The presence of the boundary modi…
Casimir Force between a Small Dielectric Sphere and a Dielectric Wall
V. Sopova, L. H. Ford
The possibility of repulsive Casimir forces between small metal spheres and a dielectric half-space is discussed. We treat a model in which the spheres have a dielectric function g…
External Time-Varying Fields and Electron Coherence
Jen-Tsung Hsiang, L. H. Ford
The effect of time-varying electromagnetic fields on electron coherence is investigated. A sinusoidal electromagnetic field produces a time varying Aharonov-Bohm phase. In a measur…
