A Canonical Relativistic Approach to Quantize Electromagnetic Field in the Presence of Moving Magneto-Dielectric Media

A canonical relativistic formulation is introduced to quantize electromagnetic field in the presence of a polarizable and magnetizable moving medium. The medium is modeled by a continuum of four vectors in a phenomenological way. The covariant wave equation for the vector potential and the covariant constitutive equation of the medium are obtained as the Euler- Lagrange equations using the Lagrangian of the total system. A tensor of the third rank which couples the electromagnetic field with the medium is introduced and the susceptibility tensor of the medium is obtained in terms of the coupling tensor. Also the noise polarization tensor is calculated in terms of the coupling tensor and the creation and annihilation operators of the four vectors modeling the medium.Comment: 7 pages, no figur

Quantum Charged Non-Linear Nano-String and Quantum Vacuum

The classical and quantum dynamic of a nonlinear chareged vibrating string and its interaction with quantum vacuum field is investigated. Some probability amplitudes for transitions between vacuum field and quantum states of the string are obtained. The effect of nonlinearity on some probability amplitudes is investigated and finally the corect equation for string containing the vacuum and radiation reaction field is obtained.Comment: 14 pages, no figures.
