Through the Casimir effect, we obtain a temperature correction to the ground state mass of the Bosonic string. Accordingly, we show that higher than the temperature $\approx 1/2\pi $, the Tachyon attain real mass, and also we find massive…

In this paper we study an impurity in Bose-Einstein-Condensate system at $T=0K$ and suppose the contact forms for boson-boson and boson-impurity interactions. Using Bogoliubov theory and a further approximation corresponding to only think…
By means of two simple examples: phase and amplitude damping, the impact of decoherence on the dynamical Casimir effect is investigated. Even without dissipating energy (i.e., pure phase damping), the amount of created particles can be…

In previous works Suppes and de Barros used a pure particle model to derive interference effects, where individual photons have well-defined trajectories, and hence no wave properties. In the present paper we extend that description to…

We investigate the non-monotonic temperature sensitivity of a coherently driven two-level quantum system coupled to an Ohmic phonon environment. By employing a unitary polaron transformation, we account for phonon-induced renormalization…
Molecular quantum electrodynamics leads to photon frequency shifts and thus to changes in condensed matter free energies often called the Casimir effect. Strong quantum electrodynamic coupling between radiation and molecular motions can…
It has been increasingly becoming clear that Casimir and Casimir-Polder entropies may be negative in certain regions of temperature and separation. In fact, the occurrence of negative entropy seems to be a nearly ubiquitous phenomenon. This…
Motivated by the recent experiment by Marguerite et al. [1] on imaging in graphene samples, we investigate theoretically the dissipation induced by resonant impurities in the quantum Hall regime. The impurity induced forward scattering of…
