Quantized Radiation Field

The spinless semi-relativistic Pauli–Fierz Hamiltonian [Formula: see text] in quantum electrodynamics is considered. Here p denotes a momentum operator, A a quantized radiation field, M ≥ 0, Hf the free Hamiltonian of a Boson Fock space and V an external potential. The self-adjointness and essential self-adjointness of H are shown. It is emphasized that it includes the case of M = 0. Furthermore, the self-adjointness and the essential self-adjointness of the semi-relativistic Pauli–Fierz model with a fixed total momentum P ∈ ℝd: [Formula: see text] is also proven for arbitrary P.

Abstract We investigate how quantum dynamics affects the propagation of a scalar field in Lorentzian AdS. We work in momentum space, in which the propagator admits two spectral representations (denoted “conformal” and “momentum”) in addition to a closed-form one, and all have a simple split structure. Focusing on scalar bubbles, we compute the imaginary part of the self-energy ImΠ in the three representations, which involves the evaluation of seemingly very different objects. We explicitly prove their equivalence in any dimension, and derive some elementary and asymptotic properties of ImΠ.Using a WKB-like approach in the timelike region, we evaluate the propagator dressed with the imaginary part of the self-energy. We find that the dressing from loops exponentially dampens the propagator when one of the endpoints is in the IR region, rendering this region opaque to propagation. This suppression may have implications for field-theoretical model-building in AdS. We argue that in the effective theory (EFT) paradigm, opacity of the IR region induced by higher dimensional operators censors the region of EFT breakdown. This confirms earlier expectations from the literature. Specializing to AdS5, we determine a universal contribution to opacity from gravity.

Double Copy

Abstract We apply the classical double copy to the calculation of self-energy of composite systems with multipolar coupling to gravitational field, obtaining next-to-leading order results in the gravitational coupling GN by generalizing color to kinematics replacement rules known in literature. When applied to the multipolar description of the two-body system, the self-energy diagrams studied in this work correspond to tail processes, whose physical interpretation is of radiation being emitted by the non-relativistic source, scattered by the curvature generated by the binary system and then re-absorbed by the same source. These processes contribute to the conservative two-body dynamics and the present work represents a decisive step towards the systematic use of double copy within the multipolar post-Minkowskian expansion.

Quantized Radiation Field

Following previous strategies by Stoler et al. which introduced the binomial state and Baseia et al. which introduced the intermediate number phase state, we introduce a new intermediate state of the quantized radiation field, which reduces to the number state and squeezed state in two different limits. This interpolating state exhibits nonclassical effects as sub-Poissonian, antibunching and squeezing, obtained from the corresponding expressions as function of the interpolating parameters.

Using the Lagrangian formalism we attempt to introduce a new Hamiltonian for fermions. On this basis we have evaluated the expectation values for the interaction energy between fermions via bosons. The interaction energy between two fermions via phonons becomes attractive in a degenerate fermion-gas. The interaction energy between two fermions via photons appears to be attractive in certain conditions. The self-energy of the fermion + boson system, e.g. polaron and polariton, was evaluated.

Quantized Radiation Field

One electron system minimally coupled to a quantized radiation field is considered. It is assumed that the quantized radiation field is massless, and no infrared cutoff is imposed. The Hamiltonian, H, of this system is defined as a self-adjoint operator acting on L2 (ℝ3) ⊗ ℱ ≅ L2 (ℝ3; ℱ), where ℱ is the Boson Fock space over L2 (ℝ3 × {1, 2}). It is shown that the ground state, ψg, of H belongs to [Formula: see text], where N denotes the number operator of ℱ. Moreover, it is shown that for almost every electron position variable x ∈ ℝ3 and for arbitrary k ≥ 0, ‖(1 ⊗ Nk/2) ψg (x)‖ℱ ≤ Dk e-δ|x|m+1 with some constants m ≥ 0, Dk > 0, and δ > 0 independent of k. In particular [Formula: see text] for 0 < β < δ/2 is obtained.
