变色龙诱导原子余辉

Chameleon Induced Atomic Afterglow

Philippe Brax, Clare Burrage

摘要:

变色龙是一个标量场,它的质量取决于它所处环境的密度。变色龙必须与物质粒子耦合,并以类似于光子的方式激发原子能级之间的跃迁。当通过使激光束穿过恒定的磁场在光学腔内产生时,变色龙被捕获在腔壁之间并形成驻波。这种效应在激光束和磁场关闭的情况下也会产生余辉现象,可以用来探测变色龙场与物质的相互作用。

英文摘要:

The chameleon is a scalar field whose mass depends on the density of its environment. Chameleons are necessarily coupled to matter particles and will excite transitions between atomic energy levels in an analogous manner to photons. When created inside an optical cavity by passing a laser beam through a constant magnetic field, chameleons are trapped between the cavity walls and form a standing wave. This effect will lead to an afterglow phenomenon even when the laser beam and the magnetic field have been turned off, and could be used to probe the interactions of the chameleon field with matter.
