The dynamical Casimir effect for two oscillating mirrors in 3D

Abstract

The generation of photons in a three dimensional rectangular cavity with two moving boundaries is studied by using the Multiple Scale Analysis (MSA). It is shown that number of photons are enhanced for the cavity whose walls oscillate symmetrically with respect to the center of the cavity. The non-stationary Casimir effect is also discussed for the cavity which oscillates as a whole.

Dynamical Casimir effect in curved spacetime

“…In the same manner as [59], we move to new coordinates (t, q) with -( ) ≔ ( ) q t x x x t , 1 , and thus…”

“…As in our main article, the coordinate system in which the metric is conformally flat is denoted (t, x), and the positions of the cavity walls in these coordinates are given by x 1 (t) and x 2 (t). In the same manner as [60], we move to new coordinates (t, q) with q(t, x) ∶= x − x 1 (t), and thus…”

Fifty Years of the Dynamical Casimir Effect

“…The parametric excitation of the resonantly coupled modes of the scalar field in the cubic cavity was studied in [283]. The case of the TE polarization of the vector EM field was also considered there.…”

Mode-mixing quantum gates and entanglement without particle creation in periodically accelerated cavities

“…The particle creation resonance (8b) is well known in the DCE literature [3,4,7,10,[19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27]. The mode-mixing resonance (8a) has been noted [10,[19][20][21][22][23][24] but seems to have received attention mainly in situations where it happens to coincide with a particle creation resonance. As the case of interest in the experimental scenario of section 4 will be mode mixing without significant particle creation, we recall here some relevant properties of mode mixing in quantum optics.…”
