Variational Electrodynamics of Atoms
We generalize Wheeler-Feynman electrodynamics with a variational problem for trajectories that are required to merge continuously into given past and future boundary segments. We prove that the boundary-value problem is well posed for two classes of boundary data. The well-posed solution in general has velocity discontinuities, henceforth a broken extremum. Along regular segments, broken extrem...
متن کاملSimple Atoms, Quantum Electrodynamics and Fundamental Constants
This review is devoted to precision physics of simple atoms. The atoms can essentially be described in the framework of quantum electrodynamics (QED), however, the energy levels are also affected by the effects of the strong interaction due to the nuclear structure. We pay special attention to QED tests based on studies of simple atoms and consider the influence of nuclear structure on energy l...
متن کاملCavity Quantum Electrodynamics of Continuously Monitored Bose-Condensed Atoms
We study cavity quantum electrodynamics of Bose-condensed atoms that are subjected to continuous monitoring of the light leaking out of the cavity. Due to a given detection record of each stochastic realization, individual runs spontaneously break the symmetry of the spatial profile of the atom cloud and this symmetry can be restored by considering ensemble averages over many realizations. We s...
متن کاملExistence of Atoms and Molecules in Non-Relativistic Quantum Electrodynamics
We show that the Hamiltonian describing N nonrelativistic electrons with spin, interacting with the quantized radiation field and several fixed nuclei with total charge Z has a ground state when N < Z + 1. The result holds for any value of the fine structure constant α and for any value of the ultraviolet cutoff Λ on the radiation field. There is no infrared cutoff. The basic mathematical ingre...
متن کاملExponential Localization of Hydrogen-like Atoms in Relativistic Quantum Electrodynamics
We consider two different models of a hydrogenic atom in a quantized electromagnetic field that treat the electron relativistically. The first one is a no-pair model in the free picture, the second one is given by the semi-relativistic Pauli-Fierz Hamiltonian. We prove that the no-pair operator is semi-bounded below and that its spectral subspaces corresponding to energies below the ionization ...
