In three dimensions, dipole-dipole interactions which alter atomic level shifts and spontaneous decay rates only persist over distances comparable to the wavelength of the emitted light. In this paper we show that it is possible to…
We consider the vacuum fluctuations contribution to the mass of a mirror in an exactly soluble partially reflecting moving mirror model. Partial reflectivity is accounted for by a repulsive delta-type potential localized along the mirror…

In this paper we propose a coupling between the complex scalar field and an external Dirac delta-like planar potential. The coupling is achieved through the Klein-Gordon current normal to the plane where the potential is concentrated. The…
