In this talk we address the issue of how the observables in our present Universe are affected by processes that may have occured at superplanckian energies (referred to as the {\it transplanckian regime}). For example, the origin of the…
We point out that current textbooks of modern physics are a century out-of-date in their treatment of blackbody radiation within classical physics. Relativistic classical electrodynamics including classical electromagnetic zero-point…
In this paper, using the viewpoint that quantum mechanics can be constructed as a classical field theory without any quantization I build a fully classical theory of thermal radiation. Planck's law for the spectral energy density of thermal…
In this work we show how friction enables a non-linear energy transfer in a slow-fast Hamiltonian system. We first introduce a paradigmatic system consisting of a weakly coupled fast and slow oscillator that gives rise to a non-linear…
Examination of equilibrium radiation in plasma media shows that the spectral the energy distribution of such radiation is different from the Planck equilibrium radiation. Using the previously obtained general relations for the spectral…
In this paper, we describe a numerical continuation method that enables harmonic analysis of nonlinear periodic oscillators. This method is formulated as a boundary value problem that can be readily implemented by resorting to a standard…
In phenomenological thermodynamics, the canonical coordinates of a physical system split in pairs with each pair consisting of an extensive quantity and an intensive one. In the present paper, the quasi-thermodynamic fluctuation theory of a…
Non-commutativity of spacetime at the Planck scale may deform the usual dispersion relations. And these deformed dispersion relations could lead to the accelerating phase without a scalar field. In this paper, we have calculated the…
The partition function of an oscillator disturbed by a set of electron particle paths has been computed by a path integral method which permits to evaluate at any temperature the relevant cumulant terms in the series expansion. The time…
We study the dynamic behavior at high energies of a chain of anharmonic oscillators coupled at its ends to heat baths at possibly different temperatures. In our setup, each oscillator is subject to a homogeneous anharmonic pinning potential…
We study the flow of energy between a harmonic oscillator (HO) and an external environment consisting of N two-degrees of freedom non-linear oscillators, ranging from integrable to chaotic according to a control parameter. The coupling…
Dalibard, Dupont-Roc and Cohen-Tannoudji (J. Physique 43 (1982) 1617; 45 (1984) 637) used the Heisenberg picture to show that the atomic transitions, and the stability of the ground state, can only be explained by introducing radiation…
We study analytically the probability distribution of the heat released by an ensemble of harmonic oscillators to the thermal bath, in the nonequilibrium relaxation process following a temperature quench. We focus on the asymmetry…
The power spectrum of finite-temperature quantum electromagnetic fluctuations produced by elementary charge carriers under the influence of external electric field is investigated. It is found that under the combined action of the photon…
A plane monochromatic wave will not appear monochromatic to a noninertial observer. We show that this feature leads to a `thermal' ambience in an accelerated frame {\it even in classical field theory}. When a real, monochromatic, mode of a…
We consider countable system of harmonic oscillators on the real line with quadratic interaction potential with finite support and local external force (stationary stochastic process) acting only on one fixed particle. In the case of…
For a rather general class of scenarios, sweeping through a zero-temperature phase transition by means of a time-dependent external parameter entails universal behavior: In the vicinity of the critical point, excitations behave as quantum…
With this work we elaborate on the physics of quantum noise in thermal equilibrium and in stationary non-equilibrium. Starting out from the celebrated quantum fluctuation-dissipation theorem we discuss some important consequences that must…
We calculate the power spectrum of vacuum fluctuations of a generic scalar field in a quantum cosmological setting that is manifestly singularity-free. The power spectrum is given in terms of the usual scale invariant spectrum plus scale…
The motivation of this work is to get an additional insight into the irreversible energy dissipation on the quantum level. The presented examination procedure is based on the Feynman path integral method that is applied and widened towards…
