In spite of the impressive predictive power and strong mathematical structure of quantum
mechanics, the theory has always suffered from important conceptual problems. Some of …

It is shown that because of the radiation pressure a Schrödinger cat state can be generated
in a resonator with an oscillating wall. The optomechanical control of quantum macroscopic …

The problem of photon creation from vacuum in an ideal cavity with vibrating walls is studied
in the resonance case, when the frequency of vibrations equals twice the frequency of some …

Electrodynamics in vacuum or in media with moving boundaries was the subject of
numerous studies in the twentieth century. In this review the author focuses on the problem …

The properties of the quantum vacuum in a one-dimensional cavity with a moving wall are
studied. We present a method to obtain an exact solution for the classical electromagnetic …

An atom interacting with a quantized electromagnetic field in a cavity with time-dependent
parameters is considered. Variation of the cavity parameters results in nonstationary …

We study the peculiarities of the nonstationary Casimir effect (creation of photons in cavities
with moving boundaries) in the special case of two resonantly coupled modes with …

We present a theoretical calculation on the tuning of Casimir forces using superlattices. The
Casimir force is calculated for a system made of two parallel heterogeneous slabs, each one …

We discuss the dynamics of a quantum vacuum in a one-dimensional cavity formed by two
ideal mirrors: one fixed, the other moving. A nonrelativistic equation of motion is found for the …
