The quantum gravity effects of vacuum polarization of gravitons propagating in a curved spacetime cause the quantum vacuum to act as a dispersive medium with a refractive index. Due to this dispersive medium gravitons acquire superluminal…
We present a quantum deformation theory of the Airy curve and use it to establish a version of mirror symmetry of a point.
Following Hawking, it is usual to mimic the effect of collapse space-time geometry on quantum fields in a semi-classical approximation by imposing suitable boundary conditions at the origin of coordinates, which effectively becomes a moving…

Generalizing to relativistic exponential scaling and using the theory of noise from quantum fluctuations, it has been shown that one vacuum (Rindler, Hartle-Hawking, or Gibbons-Hawking for the cases of the uniformly accelerated detector,…
Radiation from a mirror moving in vacuum electromagnetic fields is shown to vanish in the case of a uniformly accelerated motion. Such motions are related to conformal coordinate transformations, which preserve correlation functions…
A free quantum particle in two dimensions with vanishing angular momentum (s-wave) in the form of a ring-shaped wave packet feels an attractive force towards the center of the ring, leading first to an implosion followed by an explosion.
We study the situation where two point like mirrors are placed in the vacuum state of a scalar field in a two-dimensional spacetime. Describing the scattering upon the mirrors by transmittivity and reflectivity functions obeying unitarity,…
We show that dispersive gravitational waves, as a background spacetime, can reflect electromagnetic waves in a plasma. This reflection upshifts the frequency of the reflected wave, being larger for low-frequency incident waves. This effect…
We investigate the three-dimensional, general relativistic Poynting-Robertson effect in the case of rigidly rotating spherical source which emits radiation radially in the local comoving frame. Such radiation field is meant to approximate…
The natural electromagnetic modes spontaneously emitted by an atom in free space are spherical vector waves (SVWs). Each SVW mode is uniquely linked to a specific dynamical--spherical--multipole--moment of the atomic system. In this work,…
The scattering of quantum particles by non-hermitian (generally nonlocal) potentials in one dimension may result in asymmetric transmission and/or reflection from left and right incidence. Eight generalized symmetries based on the discrete…
We start investigating the extension of the Horizon Quantum Mechanics to the case of spheroidal sources. We first study the location of trapping surfaces in space-times resulting from an axial deformation of static isotropic systems, and…
A different approach has been used to evaluate the momentum imparted by the gravitational waves with spherical wavefronts. It is shown that the results obtained for momentum coincide with those already available in the literature.
We study the quantum dynamics of a material wavepacket bouncing off a modulated atomic mirror in the presence of a gravitational field. We find the occurrence of coherent accelerated dynamics for atoms. The acceleration takes place for…
Marshall et al. gedanken experiment of the quantum superpposition of a mirror (oscilating part of a Michelson interferometer) interacting with single photon is consequently interpreted by relative decoherence.Such relative decoherence…

We consider how a single photon can probe the quantum nature of a moving mirror in the context of quantum optomechanics. In particular, we demonstrate how the single-photon spectrum reveals resonances that depend on how many phonons are…
