A Boltzmann equation, used to describe the evolution of the density function of a gas of photons interacting by Compton scattering with electrons at low density and non relativistic equilibrium, is considered. A truncation of the very…
The possibility of the breaking of Lorentz symmetry has been discussed in many models of quantum gravity. In this paper we follow the Lorentz violation model in Ref. [1] (i.e., our previous work) to discuss the Doppler frequency shift of…
In the study of the electronic structure of heavy atoms, relativistic effects cannot be neglected and the Dirac operator naturally appears in place of the Schr\"odinger operator, raising a number of additional difficulties. The complexity…
High-energy, multi-component plasmas in which pair creation and annihilation, lepton-lepton scattering, lepton-proton scattering, and Comptonization all contribute to establishing the particle and photon distributions, are present in a…
The multipole expansion is a key tool in the study of light-matter interactions. All the information about the radiation of and coupling to electromagnetic fields of a given charge-density distribution is condensed into few numbers: The…
We analyze the real-time electron-photon dynamics in long-range polariton-mediated energy transfer using a real-time quantum electrodynamics coupled cluster (RT-QED-CC) model, which allows for spatial and temporal visualization of transport…
We consider the relativistic Vlasov-Maxwell and Vlasov-Nordstr\"om systems which describe large particle ensembles interacting by either electromagnetic fields or a relativistic scalar gravity model. For both systems we derive a radiation…
Near-future experiments with Petawatt class lasers are expected to produce a high flux of gamma-ray photons and electron-positron pairs through Strong Field Quantum Electrodynamical processes. Simulations of the expected regime of…
We recently derived, using diagrammatic methods, the leading-order hard photon emission rate in ultra-relativistic plasmas. This requires a correct treatment of multiple scattering effects which limit the coherence length of emitted…
With the improvement of the experimental techniques, many new phenomena where the photon degrees of freedom are involved have been discovered. Typical examples are the exciton-polariton quasi-particles, excitons strongly coupled to photons.…
This paper outlines a variety of possible applications of the Vlasov equation and its generalization, i.e., the Klimontovich equation, in various areas of many-body physics. In particular, these equations are shown to be used in…
We present the derivation of the Casimir-Polder interactions mediated by a massive photon between two neutral systems described in terms of their atomic polarizability tensors. We find a compact expression for the leading term at large…
The characteristic time of disappearance of electric field in massive electrodynamics during the capture of electric charge by black holes is calculated. It is shown that this time does not depend upon the photon mass. The electric field at…
This paper aims to present the pure field part of the newly developed nonlinear {\it Extended Electrodynamics} [1]-[3] in non-relativistic terms, i.e. in terms of the electric and magnetic vector fields (${\mathbf E},{\mathbf B}$), and to…
Volkov states are exact solutions of the Dirac equation in the presence of an arbitrary plane wave. Volkov states, as well as free photon states, are not stable in the presence of the background plane-wave field but "decay" as…
The evolution of an electron beam colliding head-on with a strong plane-wave field is investigated in the framework of strong-field QED including radiation-reaction effects due to photon emission. Employing a kinetic approach to describe…
We review the current state of photon and dilepton measurements at RHIC, emphasizing that of the theoretical work seeking to interpret them. We highlight the progress made recently in the modelling of relativistic nuclear collisions, and…
We examine the spatial distribution of electrons generated by a fixed energy point source in uniform, parallel electric and magnetic fields. This problem is simple enough to permit analytic quantum and semiclassical solution, and it harbors…
{A simple electrodynamic model is developed to define plasma-field structures in self-consistent ultra-relativistic laser-plasma interactions when the radiation reaction effects come into play. An exact analysis of a circularly polarized…
The problem of self forces and radiation reaction is solved by conservation of energy methods. The longstanding problem of constant acceleration is solved, and it is shown that the self force does indeed affect the particle's motion, as…
