The effect of the frame dragging on the equation of motions, depends on the approaches that have been considered. Accordingly, additional force terms may appear or disappear. To understand the effect of radial and non-radial perturbations…

The gravitational anomalies in two dimensions, specifically the Einstein anomaly and the Weyl anomaly, are fully determined by means of dispersion relations. In this approach the anomalies originate from the peculiar infrared feature of the…

Rohrlich's recent claim that the equation of motion for a point charge be symmetric under time reversal is shown to be the result of an unusual definition. The equation of motion for a charged sphere of finite size, which in contrast is…

Peculiar velocities are analyzed through cosmological perturbations in the Newtonian longitudinal gauge characterized by irrotational shear-free congruences in an Eulerian frame. We show that non-trivial peculiar velocity fields can be…
An atom moving in a vacuum at constant velocity and parallel to a surface experiences a frictional force induced by the dissipative interaction with the quantum fluctuations of the electromagnetic field. We show that the combination of…
