Photon-Photon Interaction in a Photon Gas
Using the effective Lagrangian for the low energy photon-photon interaction the lowest order photon self energy at finite temperature and in nonequilibrium is calculated within the real time formalism. The Debye mass, the dispersion relation, the dielectric tensor, and the velocity of light following from the photon self energy are discussed. As an application we consider the interaction of pho...
متن کاملPrecision tests of QED and non-standard models by searching photon-photon scattering in vacuum with high power lasers
We study how to search for photon-photon scattering in vacuum at present petawatt laser facilities such as HERCULES, and test Quantum Electrodynamics and nonstandard models like Born-Infeld theory or scenarios involving minicharged particles or axion-like bosons. First, we compute the phase shift that is produced when an ultra-intense laser beam crosses a low power beam, in the case of arbitrar...
متن کاملA possibility to measure elastic photon–photon scattering in vacuum
Photon–photon scattering in vacuum due to the interaction with virtual electron-positron pairs is a consequence of quantum electrodynamics. A way for detecting this phenomenon has been devised based on interacting modes generated in microwave waveguides or cavities [G. Brodin, M. Marklund and L. Stenflo, Phys. Rev. Lett. 87 171801 (2001)]. Here we materialize these ideas, suggest a concrete cav...
متن کاملNonlinear phase shift from photon-photon scattering in vacuum.
We show that QED nonlinear effects imply a phase correction to the linear evolution of electromagnetic waves in vacuum. We provide explicit solutions of the modified Maxwell equations for the propagation of a superposition of two plane waves and calculate analytically and numerically the corresponding phase shift. This provides a new framework for the search of all-optical signatures of photon-...
متن کاملDecoupling of Photon Propagator in Compact QED
In compact QED2+1 quantum monopole uctuations induce connnement by expelling electric ux in a dual Meissner eeect. Guided by Landau-Ginzburg theory, one might guess that the inverse London penetration depth 1 |the only physical mass scale|equals the photon propagator mass pole M. I show this is not true. Indeed, in the Villain approximation the monopole part of the partition function factorizes...
