Theory of the Rarita-Schwinger field without superluminality
During the 1ast few years the theory of invariant wave equations has received the attention of many physicists and mathematicians. The main reason is probably the acute difficulties for higher-spin equations which appear under the form of inconsistencies (e.g. , noncausality, loss of constraints, . . .), which have not been solved so far. It is usually believed that these inconsistencies are in...
متن کاملSuperluminality and UV Completion ∗
The idea that the existence of a consistent UV completion satisfying the fundamental axioms of local quantum field theory or string theory may impose positivity constraints on the couplings of the leading irrelevant operators in a low-energy effective field theory is critically discussed. Violation of these constraints implies superluminal propagation , in the sense that the low-frequency limit...

متن کاملTwo-pulse interference and superluminality
We examine how the interference of a coherent light-pulse with its slightly time-delayed copy may generate a pulse nearly identical to the original one and ahead of it. The simplicity of this 2-pulse system enabled us to obtain exact analytic expressions of the pulse distortion, valid for a wide class of pulse shapes. Explicit results are given for the pulses usually considered (gaussian, hyper...
متن کاملFiber-coupled displacement interferometry without periodic nonlinearity.
Displacement interferometry is widely used for accurately characterizing nanometer and subnanometer displacements in many applications. In many modern systems, fiber delivery is desired to limit optical alignment and remove heat sources from the system, but fiber delivery can exacerbate common interferometric measurement problems, such as periodic nonlinearity, and account for fiber-induced dri...
