共形平坦宇宙中的量子拉莫尔辐射

Quantum Larmor radiation in conformally flat universe

Rampei Kimura, Gen Nakamura, Kazuhiro Yamamoto

摘要:

在标量量子电动力学(SQED)框架下,研究了膨胀宇宙中运动电荷的Larmor辐射的量子效应。在微扰理论的最低阶,相对于SQED的耦合常数,导出了辐射能量的理论公式。我们计算了背景宇宙的辐射能量,使得Minkowski时空过渡到Milne宇宙,在Milne宇宙中,自由复标量场模函数的运动方程可以用解析的方法精确求解.然后,将计算结果与WKB近似进行了比较,WKB近似是在康普顿波长小于哈勃视界长度的情况下,用WKB近似构造模函数的运动方程。这表明,在e^2 \hbar量级的拉莫尔辐射上的量子效应是由依赖于背景展开的时间非局域积分决定的。我们还将我们的结果与Higuchi和Walker最近的工作[Phys. Rev. D80 105019(2009)]进行了比较,该工作研究了均匀电场中非相对论运动的带电粒子对拉莫尔辐射的量子修正。

英文摘要:

We investigate the quantum effect on the Larmor radiation from a moving charge in an expanding universe based on the framework of the scalar quantum electrodynamics (SQED). A theoretical formula for the radiation energy is derived at the lowest order of the perturbation theory with respect to the coupling constant of the SQED. We evaluate the radiation energy on the background universe so that the Minkowski spacetime transits to the Milne universe, in which the equation of motion for the mode function of the free complex scalar field can be exactly solved in an analytic way. Then, the result is compared with the WKB approach, in which the equation of motion of the mode function is constructed with the WKB approximation which is valid as long as the Compton wavelength is shorter than the Hubble horizon length. This demonstrates that the quantum effect on the Larmor radiation of the order e^2\hbar is determined by a non-local integration in time depending on the background expansion. We also compare our result with a recent work by Higuchi and Walker [Phys. Rev. D80 105019 (2009)], which investigated the quantum correction to the Larmor radiation from a charged particle in a non-relativistic motion in a homogeneous electric field.
