Transverse relativistic effects in paraxial wave interference
We consider relativistic deformations of interfering paraxial waves moving in the transverse direction. Owing to superluminal transverse phase velocities, noticeable deformations of the interference patterns arise when the waves move with respect to each other with non-relativistic velocities. Similar distortions also appear on a mutual tilt of the interfering waves, which causes a phase delay ...
متن کاملRelativistic Effects in S-wave Quarkonium Decays
The decay widths of S-wave quarkonia (ηc, ηb → γγ and J/ψ,Υ → ee) are calculated on the basis of a quasipotential approach. The nontrivial dependence on relative quark motion of decay amplitude is taken into consideration via quarkonium wave function. It is shown that relativistic corrections may be large (10-50 %) and comparable with QCD corrections.
متن کاملTransverse energy flows in vectorial fields of paraxial light beams
A general study of transverse energy flows (TEF) as physically meaningful and informative characteristics of paraxial light beams' spatial structure is presented. The total TEF can be decomposed into the spin and orbital contributions giving rise to the spin and orbital angular momentums, correspondingly. Definitions and properties of these constituents are discussed in relation with the optica...
متن کاملGeneral relativistic effects in quantum interference of “clocks”
Quantum mechanics and general relativity have been each successfully tested in numerous experiments. However, the regime where both theories are jointly required to explain physical phenomena remains untested by laboratory experiments, and is also not fully understood by theory. This contribution reviews recent ideas for a new type of experiments: quantum interference of “clocks”, which aim to ...
متن کاملTransverse Wave Propagation in Relativistic Two-fluid Plasmas in de Sitter Space
We investigate transverse electromagnetic waves propagating in a plasma in the de Sitter space. Using the 3 + 1 formalism we derive the relativistic two-fluid equations to take account of the effects due to the horizon and describe the set of simultaneous linear equations for the perturbations. We use a local approximation to investigate the one-dimensional radial propagation of Alfvén and high...
