The Unruh Effect in Slow Motion
The Unruh Effect in Slow Motion
We show under what conditions an accelerated detector (e.g., an atom/ion/molecule) thermalizes while interacting with the vacuum state of a quantum field in a setup where the detectorās acceleration alternates sign across multiple optical cavities. We show (non-perturbatively) in what regimes the probe āforgetsā that it is traversing cavities and ā¦
