Boundary conditions for the spinor field in Rindler spacetime and the quantum field theoretical basis of the Unruh effect
We analyse the quantization procedure of the spinor field in the Rindler spacetime, showing the boundary conditions that should be imposed to the field, in order to have a well posed theory. Because of these boundary conditions we argue that this construction and the usual one in Minkowski spacetime are qualitatively different and can not be compared and consequently the conventional interpreta...
متن کاملUnruh Effect for General Trajectories
We consider two-level detectors coupled to a scalar field and moving on arbitrary trajec-tories in Minkowski space-time. We first derive a generic expression for the response function using a (novel) regularization procedure based on the Feynmann prescription that is explicitly causal, and we compare it to other expressions used in the literature. We then use this expression to study, analytica...
متن کامل0 Boundary Operators in Quantum Field Theory
The fundamental laws of physics can be derived from the requirement of invariance under suitable classes of transformations on the one hand, and from the need for a well-posed mathematical theory on the other hand. As a part of this programme, the present paper shows under which conditions the introduction of pseudo-differential boundary operators in one-loop Euclidean quantum gravity is compat...
متن کاملBoundary Operators in Quantum Field Theory
When quantum fields are studied on manifolds with boundary, the corresponding one-loop quantum theory for bosonic gauge fields with linear covariant gauges needs the assignment of suitable boundary operators for elliptic differential operators of Laplace type. It is here shown that, on requiring that the full boundary operator should be a projector, at least two sets of such operators are found...
متن کاملSome Boundary Effects in Quantum Field Theory *
We have constructed a quantum field theory in a finite box, with periodic boundary conditions, using the hypothesis that particles living in a finite box are created and/or annihilated by the creation and/or annihilation operators, respectively, of a quantum harmonic oscillator on a circle. An expression for the effective coupling constant is obtained showing explicitly its dependence on the di...
