A great deal of evidence has been mounting over the years showing a deep connection between acceleration, radiation, and the Unruh effect. Indeed, the fact that the Unruh effect can be codified in the Larmor radiation emitted by the charge…
Planck's law of thermal radiation depends only on the temperature T and emissivity $\varepsilon$. It is one of the most fundamental discoveries about light-matter interaction that led to the development of quantum physics. Another basic…
Classical thermodynamics treats temperature as a state variable characterizing systems in equilibrium with idealized infinite reservoirs. We argue that this framing, while computationally exact, obscures an essential physical reality: any…

Planck's law describes the radiation of black bodies. The study of its properties is of special interest, as black bodies are a good description for the behavior of many phenomena. In this work a new mathematical study of Planck's law is…
We investigate the relativistic generalization of the classical St\"{o}rmer problem, which describes the motion of charged particles in a purely magnetic dipole field. By incorporating special relativistic effects, the particle dynamics is…
A charge accelerating in a straight line following the Schwarzschild-Planck moving mirror motion emits thermal radiation for a finite period. Such a mirror motion demonstrates quantum purity and serves as a direct analogy of a black hole…

A model detector undergoing constant, infinite-duration acceleration converges to an equilibrium state described by the Hawking-Unruh temperature $T_a=(a/2\pi)(\hbar/c)$. To relate this prediction to experimental observables, a point-like…
We investigate the connection between the classical Larmor formula and the quantum Unruh effect by computing the emitted power by a uniformly accelerated charged particle and its angular distribution in the coaccelerated frame. We consider…
A new solution for an analytic spectrum of particle creation by an accelerating mirror (dynamical Casimir effect) is given. It is the first model to simultaneously radiate thermally and emit a finite number of particles.
We study the evolution of electrostatic plasma waves, using the relativistic Vlasov equation extended by the Landau-Lifshitz radiation reaction, accounting for the back-reaction due to the emission of single particle Larmor radiation. In…
A polarizable body moving in an external electromagnetic field will slow down. This effect is referred to as radiation damping and is analogous to Doppler cooling in atomic physics. Using the principles of special relativity we derive an…
The behavior of finite temperature planar electrodynamics is investigated. We calculate the static as well as dynamic characteristic functions using real time formalism. The temperature and density dependence of dielectric and permeability…
We study the Casimir effect with different temperatures between the plates ($T$) resp. outside of them ($T'$). If we consider the inner system as the black body radiation for a special geometry, then contrary to common belief the…
Within the framework of the Drude dispersive model, we predict an unusual non-monotonous temperature dependence of the Casimir force for thin metal films. For certain conditions, this force decreases with temperature due to the decrease of…
