Weak-Equivalence Principle Violation and Mass Change of Charged Matter due to Vacuum Polarization
Vacuum polarization by electric fields is a well established fact. Assuming that anti-matter has negative gravitational properties, the fluctating electric dipoles from the quantum vacuum may also have gravitational dipolar properties. A model is developed that describes how electric fields could gravitationally polarize the vacuum causing gravitational screening or anti-screening effects. This...
متن کاملQCD Corrections to QED Vacuum Polarization
We compute QCD corrections to QED calculations for vacuum polarization in background magnetic fields. Formally, the diagram for virtual eē loops is identical to the one for virtual qq̄ loops. However due to confinement, or to the growth of αs as p 2 decreases, a direct calculation of the diagram is not allowed. At large p we consider the virtual qq̄ diagram, in the intermediate region we discuss ...
متن کاملVacuum-polarization corrections to solar-fusion rates.
The vacuum-polarization corrections to rates for nuclear-fusion reactions in the pp chain and in the CNO cycle are calculated. For the reactions of particular importance to the solar-neutrino problem, the 3He(3He, 2p)4He, 3He(α, γ)7Be, 7Be(p, γ)8B, and 14N(p, γ)15O reactions, we find the magnitude of the effect to be less than 2%. The effect of VP on all the other reaction rates is expected to ...
متن کاملVacuum soft lithography to direct neuronal polarization†
The ability to coat surfaces with pre-determined patterns of biomolecules by soft lithography has found use in areas ranging from fundamental biology to translational medicine, such as tissue engineering and diagnostics. However, existing surface patterning techniques (e.g., microcontact printing and traditional lithography) are unable to pattern several biomolecules in a single step. Here we i...
متن کاملCoordinate-space approach to vacuum polarization
The vacuum-polarization correction for bound electrons or muons is examined. The objective is to formulate a framework for calculating the correction from bound-state quantum electrodynamics entirely in coordinate space, including the Uehling potential, which is usually isolated and treated separately. Pauli-Villars regularization is applied to the coordinate-space calculation and the most sing...
