量子电动力学与以太
Quantum electrodynamics and the ether
摘要：
以太概念--被抛弃了很长一段时间，但在1951-1953年被狄拉克恢复--近年来成为理论物理学中的一个时髦课题，现在通常被称为爱因斯坦-狄拉克以太。这意味着一个特殊的惯性系被挑选出来，作为“静止系”。在本说明中强调的是，如果折射率被设置为等于1，则该想法是介质中量子电动力学协变理论的一个自然例子。本文作者早在1971年就发表了一篇关于量子电动力学的论文，当时只在一个预印本系列中发表。目前的版本是一个简短的总结，形式主义，与原始文件的链接。我们认为这是第一个论文现代以太理论。
英文摘要：
The ether concept -- abandoned for a long time but reinstated by Dirac in 1951-1953 -- has in recent years emerged into a fashionable subject in theoretical physics, now usually with the name of the Einstein-Dirac ether. It means that one special inertial frame is singled out, as the "rest frame". What is emphasized in the present note, is that the idea is a natural example of the covariant theory of quantum electrodynamics in media if the refractive index is set equal to unity. A treatise on this case of quantum electrodynamics was given by the present author back in 1971, published then only within a preprint series. The present version is a brief summary of that formalism, with a link to the original paper. We think it is one of the first treatises on modern ether theory.
