Quantum terahertz electrodynamics and macroscopic quantum tunneling in layered superconductors.
We derive a quantum field theory of Josephson plasma waves (JPWs) in layered superconductors, which describes two types of interacting JPW bosonic quanta (one heavy and one lighter). We propose a mechanism of enhancement of macroscopic quantum tunneling (MQT) in stacks of intrinsic Josephson junctions. Because of the long-range interaction between junctions in layered superconductors, the calcu...
متن کاملMacroscopic test of quantum mechanics versus stochastic electrodynamics
Local hidden variable theories are known to be inconsistent with quantum mechanics at the microscopic level, from the Bell inequalities @1#. Experimental tests at this level have decided in favor of quantum mechanics @2#, although there are still some experimental problems with low detection efficiency. The situation is different as particle numbers increase. There are no macroscopic tests of q...

متن کاملExplicit Derivation of Duality between a Free Dirac Cone and Quantum Electrodynamics in (2+1) Dimensions.
We explicitly derive the duality between a free electronic Dirac cone and quantum electrodynamics in (2+1) dimensions (QED_{3}) with N=1 fermion flavors. The duality proceeds via an exact, nonlocal mapping from electrons to dual fermions with long-range interactions encoded by an emergent gauge field. This mapping allows us to construct parent Hamiltonians for exotic topological-insulator surfa...
متن کاملFrom Electromagnetic Duality to Extended Electrodynamics
This paper presents the transition from Classical Electrodynamics (CED) to Extended Electrodynamics (EED) from the electromagnetic duality point of view, and emphasizes the role of the canonical complex structure in R in, both, nonrelativistic and relativistic formulations of CED and EED. We begin with summarizing the motivations for passing to EED, as well as we motivate and outline the way to...
