We study parity-time-symmetric non-Hermitian quantum systems at finite temperature, where the Boltzmann distribution law fails to hold. To characterize their abnormal physical properties, a new quantum statistics theory (the so-called…

The problem of black-body radiation is considered in the Born-Infeld theory of electrodynamics. In particular, at 2-loop order the deviation from the Planck expression due to the self-interaction of photons is calculated. It is seen that…
We postulate that the U(1)$_Y$ factor of the Standard Model is an effective manifestation of SU(2) gauge dynamics being dynamically broken by nonperturbative effects. The modified propagation properties of the photon at low temperatures and…
We present a concise derivation of the Boltzmann form for single-particle energy distributions in classical many-body Hamiltonian systems. The derivation relies on two physical facts: coarse-graining-scale invariance of the empirical…
Assuming the radiation emitted by an accelerating charge follows the Unruh radiation, we obtained the characteristics of the de Broglie wave associated with the accelerating charge. The de Broglie wavelength of the accelerating charged…

In this paper we compute the corrections to the black-body force (BBF) potential due to spacetime geometry and topology. This recently discovered attractive force on neutral atoms is caused by the thermal radiation emitted from black bodies…
Where does Hawking radiation originate? A common picture is that it arises from excitations very near or at the horizon, and this viewpoint has supported the "firewall" argument and arguments for a key role for the UV-dependent entanglement…
We consider a time dependent, spherically outflowing wind, in Schwarzschild space-time, consisting of electron-positron pairs and photons . Without assuming thermal equilibrium, we account for the microphysics, including two-body processes…
Here, we demonstrate that the power spectral density of thermal radiation at a specific wavelength produced by a body of finite dimensions set up in free space under a fixed temperature could be made theoretically arbitrary high, if one…
This study investigates the implications of adopting fractional entropy in the area law framework and demonstrates its natural alignment with an isothermal description of black hole composition. We discuss the Zeroth law compatibility of…
We extend an earlier investigation of the thermodynamics of static black holes in an Einstein-Horndeski theory of gravity coupled to a scalar field, by including now an elec- tromagnetic field as well. By studying the two-parameter families…
The interplay between optical and statistical physics is a rich and exciting field of study. Black body radiation was the first application of photon statistics, although it was initially treated as a problem of the cavity oscillators in…
