Course Description

Overview

Explore quantum electrodynamic fluctuations in the presence of half-spaces filled with topological insulators in this 48-minute conference talk by Irina Pirozhenko from JINR. Delivered at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics as part of the "Quantum and Thermal Electrodynamic Fluctuations in the Presence of Matter: Progress and Challenges" conference, delve into the complex interplay between quantum fields and matter. Examine the impact of classical and quantum fluctuating electromagnetic fields on fundamental and practical phenomena across physics, chemistry, and engineering. Investigate recent developments in Casimir interactions, quantum field fluctuations in heat transfer, and the implications of 2D topological materials and non-reciprocal materials. Address unresolved questions and experimental challenges in detecting quantum friction and reconciling discrepancies between theoretical and experimental results. Gain insights from this interdisciplinary discussion that brings together theorists and experimentalists to explore cutting-edge topics in quantum electrodynamics and their potential applications in materials science.
