Quantum origin of suppression for vacuum fluctuations of energy

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2014-12-24 v4 High Energy Physics - Theory

Abstract

By example of a model with a spatially global scalar field, we show that the energy density of zero-point modes is exponentially suppressed by an average number of field quanta in a finite volume with respect to the energy density in the stationary state of minimal energy. We describe cosmological implications of mechanism.
