The application of the Green function method to the Mollow problem is reconsidered. This problem consists of an intense monochromatic electromagnetic field in resonance with a two-level atom. We obtain a solution to the infinite hierarchy of Green function equations of motion instead of decoupling the equations of motion. This solution gives an excitation spectrum in agreement with Mollow's results. We conclude that earlier discrepancies in the excitation spectrum were artifacts of the decoupling procedure. Finally, we comment upon the physical ideas associated with the present and previous Green function treatments of the Mollow problem.

AbstractReplacing the Green function of Maxwell's electrodynamics δ(x2) by δ(x2 + l2) we obtain a Hamiltonian with a finite number of degrees of freedom for the classical motion of a pointcharge in its own electromagnetic field. After quantization we obtain a mass spectrum if we assume that a nonelectrodynamic bare mass M exists. The spectral terms are S1/2 , P1/2; P3/2 , D3/2; D5/2 etc. (k = +1, -1; +2, -2; +3 ...). It is possible to fit the length l in the Green function and the mass M so that the mass ratio of the lowest terms becomes m (P1/2)/m(S1/2) = mμ/me . We then get: l =4,896 · 10-91 ħ/mp c, M = 15,32mp . Hence the deviation from Maxwell's electrodynamic is extremely small, but not zero, and heavy leptons should exist near m = | M | . Some further leptonic states exist with masses similar to that of the muon. All states, those of the electron and the muon excepted, are γ-instable (life time 10-17 sec. resp. 10-26 sec.).

A phenomenological quantization of electromagnetic field is introduced in the presence of the anisotropic magnetodielectric metamaterials. For a single layer structure with the anisotropic metamaterials, input-output relations are derived using the Green-function approach. Based on these relations, the reflectance of the linearly polarized wave through this structure is calculated. The results show different reflectance for different polarized waves and indicate an application of the anisotropic metamaterials to be the reflectors for certain polarized wave. Furthermore it is found that such a structure can realize the resonant gap with the increase of the thickness. Finally the effects of the absorption are considered and we find that the above properties do not change with introduction of the absorption.

AbstractWe develop an accurate approximation of the normalized hyperbolic operator sine family generated by a strongly positive operator A in a Banach space X which represents the solution operator for the elliptic boundary value problem. The solution of the corresponding inhomogeneous boundary value problem is found through the solution operator and the Green function. Starting with the Dunford — Cauchy representation for the normalized hyperbolic operator sine family and for the Green function, we then discretize the integrals involved by the exponentially convergent Sinc quadratures involving a short sum of resolvents of A. Our algorithm inherits a two-level parallelism with respect to both the computation of resolvents and the treatment of different values of the spatial variable x ∈ [0, 1].

Small amplitude electrostatic oscillations in a cold plasma with continuously varying density have been investigated. The problem is the same as that treated by Barston (1964) but instead of his normal-mode analysis we employ the Laplace transform approach to solve the corresponding initial-value problem. We construct the Green function of the differential equation of the problem to show that there are branch-point singularities on the real axis of the complex frequency-plane, which correspond to the singularities of the Barston eigenmodes and which, asymptotically, give rise to non-collective oscillations with position-dependent frequency and damping proportional to negative powers of time. In addition we find an infinity of new singularities (simple poles) of the analytic continuation of the Green function into the lower half of the complex frequency-plane whose position is independent of the spatial co-ordinate so that they represent collective, exponentially damped modes of plasma oscillations. Thus, although there may be no discrete spectrum, in a more general sense a dispersion relation does exist but must be interpreted in the same way as in the case of Landau damping of hot plasma oscillations.
