On the Localized superluminal Solutions to the Maxwell Equations
👤 Erasmo Recami; Michel Zamboni-Rached; Kleber Z. Nobrega; Cesar A. Dartora; Hugo E. Hernandez-Figueroa

In the first part of this article the various experimental sectors of physics in which Superluminal motions seem to appear are briefly mentioned, after a sketchy theoretical introduction. In particular, a panoramic view is presented of the experiments with evanescent waves (and/or tunneling photons), and with the "Loca…

Instrument for Measuring the Earth's Time-Retarded Transverse Gravitational Vector Potential
👤 J. C. Hafele

Here within the basic design for a ground-based instrument for measuring the magnitude of the Earth's time-retarded transverse gravitational vector potential is described. The formula for the Earth's transverse vector potential is derived from the known formula for the neoclassical time-retarded transverse gravitationa…

"Quantum Interference with Slits" Revisited
👤 Tony Rothman; Stephen Boughn

Marcella [arXiv:quant-ph/0703126] has presented a straightforward technique employing the Dirac formalism to calculate single- and double-slit interference patterns. He claims that no reference is made to classical optics or scattering theory and that his method therefore provides a purely quantum mechanical descriptio…

Interstitial BiO molecule as a center of broadband IR luminescence in bismuth-doped silica glass
👤 V. O. Sokolov; V. G. Plotnichenko; E. M. Dianov

IR luminescence and absorption in bismuth-doped silica glass-core fibers observed recently (see [arXiv:1106.2969v1 [physics.optics]) are argued to be caused by transitions in interstitial BiO molecules…

Supplementary information to: Forces between a partially coherent fuctuating source and a magnetodielectric particle
👤 Juan Miguel Auñon; Manuel Nieto-Vesperinas

This is the supplementary information to arXiv:1303.4545v1 [physics.optics] 19 Mar 2013 in which we address the forces exerted by the electromagnetic field emitted by a planar uctuating source on dielectric particles that have arose much interest because of their recently shown magnetodielectric behavior.…

Theory of angular Goos-Hänchen shift near Brewster incidence
👤 A. Aiello; J. P. Woerdman

We present here a compactly formulated application of the previously posted general formalism of the reflection of Gaussian beams at a dielectric interface ({arXiv:0710.1643v2 [physics.optics]}). Specifically, we calculate the Goos-Hänchen shift near Brewster incidence, for an air-glass plane interface.…

Spin-of-Light Gyroscope and the Spin-Rotation Coupling
👤 Bahram Mashhoon; Yuri N. Obukhov

We discuss the coupling of photon spin with rotation in connection with a recent proposal of Fedderke et al. [arXiv:2406.16178 [physics.optics]] regarding a precision gyroscope based on the intrinsic spin of light. To this end, we analyze the propagation of electromagnetic radiation in a physical system that uniformly …

On the "Non-Restricted special Relativity" theory (NRR), and further comments on "Cherenkov vs X-waves"
👤 Michel Zamboni-Rached; Erasmo Recami; Ioannis M. Besieris

Our aim in this paper is to recall some essential points of "Extended special Relativity", now more correctly called "Non-Restricted special Relativity" theory (NRR), and in particular of the extended Maxwell Equations; as well as to set forth some further comments on the basic differences between Cherenkov Radiation a…
