Rotational quantum friction.
We investigate the frictional forces due to quantum fluctuations acting on a small sphere rotating near a surface. At zero temperature, we find the frictional force near a surface to be several orders of magnitude larger than that for the sphere rotating in vacuum. For metallic materials with typical conductivity, quantum friction is maximized by matching the frequency of rotation with the cond...
متن کاملRotational Stabilization of Magnetically Collimated Jets
We investigate the launching and stability of extragalactic jets through nonlinear magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation and linear eigenmode analysis. In the simulations of jet evolution, a small-scale equilibrium magnetic arcade is twisted by a differentially rotating accretion disk. These simulations produce a collimated outflow which is unstable to the current driven m = 1 kink mode for low ...
متن کاملA Magnetically-Actuated Friction Feedback Mouse
We have designed and built a passive haptic display by integrating an electromagnet into an infra-red optical mouse. When the electromagnet is not energized, the mouse acts normally, with the same low friction and only a slight increase in mass. Energizing the electromagnet attracts the mouse towards a ferromagnetic mouse pad, increasing the normal force, and thus the frictional force, between ...
متن کاملShearing the vacuum—quantum friction
We consider two perfectly smooth featureless surfaces at T = 0, defined only by their respective dielectric functions, separated by a finite distance, and ask the question of whether they can experience any friction when sheared parallel to their interface. We find large frictional effects comparable to everyday frictional forces provided that the materials have resistivities of the order of 1 ...
متن کاملVacuum friction in rotating particles.
We study the frictional torque acting on particles rotating in empty space. At zero temperature, vacuum friction transforms mechanical energy into light emission and produces particle heating. However, particle cooling relative to the environment occurs at finite temperatures and low rotation velocities. Radiation emission is boosted and its spectrum significantly departed from a hot-body emiss...
