Unruh 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 کاملAn optimal policy for deteriorating items with time-proportional deterioration rate and constant and time-dependent linear demand rate
In this paper, an economic order quantity (EOQ) inventory model for a deteriorating item is developed with the following characteristics: (i) The demand rate is deterministic and two-staged, i.e., it is constant in first part of the cycle and linear function of time in the second part. (ii) Deterioration rate is time-proportional. (iii) Shortages are not allowed to occur. The o...
متن کاملInformation propagation and entanglement generation between two Unruh-DeWitt detectors
The setup in which two quantum systems, Alice and Bob, communicate using bosonic field quanta can be viewed as a prototype for wireless quantum communication. In this thesis we focus on the most basic case, where Alice and Bob are modeled as Unruh-DeWitt detectors, i.e., as two-level quantum systems that interact locally through a scalar quantum field. Our aim is to study how information propag...
متن کاملDecoherence of the Unruh Detector
Abstract As it is well known, the Minkowski vacuum appears thermally populated to a quantum mechanical detector on a uniformly accelerating course. We investigate how this thermal radiation may contribute to the classical nature of the detector’s trajectory through the criteria of decoherence. An uncertainty-type relation is obtained for the detector involving the fluctuation in temperature, th...
متن کامل1 Ju l 2 00 6 How often does the Unruh - DeWitt detector click ? Regularisation by a spatial profile .
We analyse within first-order perturbation theory the instantaneous transition rate of an accelerated Unruh-DeWitt particle detector whose coupling to a mass-less scalar field on four-dimensional Minkowski space is regularised by a spatial profile. For the Lorentzian profile introduced by Schlicht, the zero size limit is computed explicitly and expressed as a manifestly finite integral formula ...
