Abstract
The quantum vacuum interaction energy between a pair of semitransparent two-dimensional plates represented by Dirac delta potentials and its first derivative, embedded in the topological background of a sine-Gordon kink, is studied through an extension of the TGTG-formula (developped by O. Kenneth and I. Klich in the scattering approach). Quantum vacuum oscillations around the sine-Gordon kink solutions are interpreted as a quantum scalar field theory in the spacetime of a domain wall. Moreover, the relation between the phase shift and the density of states (the well-known Dashen-Hasslacher-Neveu formula) is also exploited to characterize the quantum vacuum energy.
通过 TGTG 公式(由 O. Kenneth 和 I. Klich 在散射方法中开发)的扩展,研究了一对由狄拉克三角势及其一阶导数表示的半透明二维板之间的量子真空相互作用能,该相互作用能嵌入正弦-戈登扭结的拓扑背景中。正弦-戈登扭结解周围的量子真空振荡被解释为域壁时空中的量子标量场理论。此外,我们还利用相移与状态密度之间的关系(著名的达申-哈斯拉赫-奈维乌公式)来描述量子真空能量。
