Casimir energy of finite width mirrors: renormalization, self-interaction limit and Lifshitz formula

We study the field theoretical model of a scalar field in presence of spacial inhomogeneities in form of one and two finite width mirrors (material slabs). The interaction of the scalar field with the defect is described with position-dependent mass term. Within this model we derive the interaction of two finite width mirrors, establish the correspondence of the model to the Lifshitz formula and construct limiting procedure to obtain finite self-energy of a single mirror without any normalization condition.

On the Casimir energy for scalar fields with bulk inhomogeneities

We study the field theoretical model of a real scalar field in presence of spacial inhomogeneity in form of a finite width mirror (material layer). The interaction of the scalar field with the defect is described with position-dependent mass term. We calculate the propagator of the theory, the Casimir energy and the pressure on the boundaries of the layer. We discuss the renormalization procedure for the model in dimensional regularization.

Parity violating cylindrical shell in the framework of QED

We present calculations of Casimir energy (CE) in a system of quantized electromagnetic (EM) field interacting with an infinite circular cylindrical shell (which we call `the defect'). Interaction is described in the only QFT-consistent way by Chern-Simon action concentrated on the defect, with a single coupling constant $a$. For regularization of UV divergencies of the theory we use % physically motivated Pauli-Villars regularization of the free EM action. The divergencies are extracted as a polynomial in regularization mass $M$, and they renormalize classical part of the surface action. We reveal the dependence of CE on the coupling constant $a$. Corresponding Casimir force is attractive for all values of $a$. For $a\to\infty$ we reproduce the known results for CE for perfectly conducting cylindrical shell first obtained by DeRaad and Milton.

Casimir effect for thin films in QED

We consider the problem of modeling of interaction of thin material films with fields of quantum electrodynamics. Taking into account the basic principles of quantum electrodynamics (locality, gauge invariance, renormalizability) we construct a single model for Casimir-like phenomena arising near the film boundary on distances much larger then Compton wavelength of the electron. In this region contribution of Dirac fields fluctuations are not essential and can be neglected. In the model the film is presented by a singular background field concentrated on a 2-dimensional surface and interacting with quantum electromagnetic field. All properties of the film material are described by one dimensionless parameter. For two parallel plane films the Casimir force appears to be non-universal and dependent on material property. It can be both attractive and repulsive. In the model we study scattering of electromagnetic wave on the plane film, an interaction of plane film with point charge, homogeneously charged plane and straight line current. Here, besides usual results of classical electrodynamics the model predicts appearance of anomalous electromagnetic phenomena.

Casimir effect for thin films from imperfect materials

We propose an approach for investigation of interaction of thin material films with quantum electrodynamic fields. Using main principles of quantum electrodynamics (locality, gauge invariance, renormalizability) we construct a single model for Casimir-like phenomena arising near the film boundary on distances much larger then Compton wavelength of the electron where fluctuations of Dirac fields are not essential. In this model the thin film is presented by a singular background field concentrated on a 2-dimensional surface. All properties of the film material are described by one dimensionless parameter. For two parallel plane films we calculate the photon propagator and the Casimir force, which appears to be dependent on film material and can be both attractive and repulsive. We consider also an interaction of plane film with point charge and straight line current. Here, besides usual results of classical electrodynamics the model predicts appearance of anomalous electric and magnetic fields.

Field of homogeneous Plane in Quantum Electrodynamics

We study quantum electrodynamics coupled to the matter field on singular background, which we call defect. For defect on the infinite plane we calculated the fermion propagator and mean electromagnetic field. We show that at large distances from the defect plane, the electromagnetic field is constant what is in agreement with the classical results. The quantum corrections determining the field near the plane are calculated in the leading order of perturbation theory.

Radiative decays of quarkonium states, momentum operator expansion and nilpotent operators

We present the method of calculation of radiative decays of composite quark-antiquark systems with different J^{PC}: (Q\bar Q)_{in} -> gamma (Q\bar Q)_{out}. The method is relativistic invariant, it is based on the double dispersion relation integrals over the masses of composite mesons, it can be used for the high spin particles and provides us with the gauge invariant transition amplitudes. We apply this method to the case when the photon is emitted by a constituent in the intermediate state (additive quark model). We perform the momentum operator expansion of the spin amplitudes for the decay processes. The problem of nilpotent spin operators is discussed.

Decay $ϕ(1020)\to γf_0(980)$: analysis in the non-relativistic quark model approach

We demonstrate the possibility of a good description of the processes $ϕ(1020)\to γππ$ and $ϕ(1020)\to γf_0(980)$ within the framework of non-relativistic quark model assuming $f_0(980)$ to be dominantly quark--antiquark system. Different mechanisms of the radiative decay, that is, the emission of photon by the constituent quark (additive quark model) and charge-exchange current, are considered. We also discuss the status of the threshold theorem applied to the studied reactions, namely, the behaviour of the decay amplitude at $M_{ππ} \to m_ϕ$ and $m_{f_0}\to m_ϕ$. In conclusion the arguments favouring the $q\bar q$ origin of $f_0(980)$ are listed.

Charmed quark component of the photon wave function

We determine the c-anti-c component of the photon wave function on the basis of (i) the data on the transitions e+ e- -> J/psi(3096), psi(3686), psi(4040), psi(4415), (ii) partial widths of the two-photon decays eta_{c0}(2979), chi_{c0}(3415), chi_{c2}(3556) -> gamma-gamma, and (iii) wave functions of the charmonium states obtained by solving the Bethe-Salpeter equation for the c-anti-c system. Using the obtained c-anti-c component of the photon wave function we calculate the gamma-gamma decay partial widths for radial excitation 2S state, eta_{c0}(3594) -> gamma-gamma, and 2P states chi_{c0}(3849), chi_{c2}(3950) -> gamma-gamma.
