超光速传播的量子限制

Quantum limitations on superluminal propagation

Yakir Aharonov, Benni Reznik, Ady Stern

摘要:

不稳定的系统,例如具有反转原子布居数的介质,已经被证明允许群速度比光快的分析波包的传播,而不违反因果关系。我们照亮的不稳定模式在这种传播中发挥的重要作用,并表明,这些模式的量子涨落,其单一的时间演化,施加严重的限制超光速现象的观察。

英文摘要:

Unstable systems such as media with inverted atomic population have been shown to allow the propagation of analytic wavepackets with group velocity faster than that of light, without violating causality. We illuminate the important role played by unstable modes in this propagation, and show that the quantum fluctuations of these modes, and their unitary time evolution, impose severe restrictions on the observation of superluminal phenomena.
