Light and Airy: a simple solution for relativistic quantum acceleration radiation

Abstract

We study the quantum radiation of particle production by vacuum from an ultra-relativistic moving mirror (dynamical Casimir effect) solution that allows (possibly for the first time) analytically calculable time evolution of particle creation and an Airy particle spectral distribution. The reality of the beta Bogoliubov coefficients is responsible for the simplicity, and the mirror is asymptotically inertial at the speed of light, with finite energy production. We also discuss general relations regarding negative energy flux, the transformation to the 1-D Schr{\"o}dinger equation, and the incompleteness of entanglement entropy.Comment: 10 pages, 9 figure
