چکیده

Vacuum fluctuations have observable consequences, like the Casimir force appearing between two mirrors in vacuum. This force is now measured with good accuracy and agreement with theory. We discuss the meaning and consequences of these statements by emphasizing their relation with the problem of vacuum energy, one of the main unsolved problems at the interface between gravitational and

In this paper we show that if the refractive index, or rather, [n(ω) − 1] satisfies the dispersion relations then, it is implied by Titchmarsh's theorem that, n(ω) → 1 as ω → ∞. Any other limiting value for n(ω) would violate relativistic causality, by which we mean not only that cause must precede effect but also that signals cannot travel faster–than–c, the velocity of light in a vacuum.

The effect of rule (4) on a series or parallel sequence of quantum mechanical steps is to insure that a conscious observer does not skip a step. This rule effectively places the observer in continuous contact with the system.
