真空涨落的权重

The Weight of Vacuum Fluctuations

Eduard Masso

摘要:

我们研究了兰姆位移能量的引力性质。利用现有的实验数据,我们表明,这些能量有一个标准的引力行为在$\sim 10^{-5}$的水平。我们的动机的观点,兰姆转移能量可以被解释为电磁场的真空波动的结果。如果是这样的话,我们的结果就是对量子涨落引力性质的检验。这一结果与零点能量对宇宙学常数的贡献问题有关。事实上,这个问题的前提是,零点能和所有其他形式的能量一样受到引力的作用,而这个假设就是我们要检验的。

英文摘要:

We examine the gravitational properties of Lamb shift energies. Using available experimental data we show that these energies have a standard gravitational behavior at the level of $\sim 10^{-5}$. We are motivated by the point of view that Lamb shift energies may be interpreted as a consequence of vacuum fluctuations of the electromagnetic field. If this is the case, our result is a test of the gravitational properties of quantum fluctuations. The result is of interest in relation to the problem of the zero-point energy contribution to the cosmological constant. Indeed, the problem presupposes that the zero-point energy gravitates as all other forms of energy, and this supposition is what we test.
