论文摘要
讨论了液体中的零点密度波动及其潜在的光散射观察。建议有两种鲜明的影响。一种给出平均散射光子的数量,并取决于光子波长的逆功率。第二个效果在有限尺寸的光子波包的散射中产生,并取决于波数据包空间大小的反功率。这种效果似乎是散射光子数量的大波动,并且类似于量子场理论中能量密度的时空平均真空波动。
Zero point density fluctuations in a liquid and their potential observation by light scattering are discussed. It is suggested that there are two distinct effects of interest. One gives an average number of scattered photons, and depends upon an inverse power of the photon wavelength. The second effect arises in the scattering of finite size photon wave packets and depends upon an inverse power of the spatial size of the wave packet. This effect appears as large fluctuations in the number of scattered photons, and is analogous to the vacuum fluctuations of spacetime averages of the energy density in quantum field theory.
