Enhanced binding of a quantum particle coupled to a quantized field means that the Hamiltonian of the particle alone does not have a bound state, while the particle-field Hamiltonian does. For the Pauli--Fierz model, this is usually shown…

The excited states of a charged particle interacting with the quantized electromagnetic field and an external potential all decay, but such a particle should have a true ground state--one that minimizes the energy and satisfies the…
