• Abstract: Repulsion, induced from quantum vacuum fluctuations, for an anisotropically polarizable atom on the symmetry axis of an anisotropically polarizable annular disc is studied. There exists two torsion free points on each side of the annular disc, where the interaction energy is orientation independent. The position of second of the two torsion free points, on either side of the disc, is shown to determine the orientation dependence of the atom at distances far from the plate, revealing a geometrical dependence. In the ring limit of the annular disc, new repulsion emerges.

  We consider an ensemble of homonuclear diatomic molecules coupled to the two polarization directions of a Fabry-P'erot cavity. We identify a coupling mechanism mediated simultaneously by the two perpendicular polarizations, and inducing polaritonic relaxation towards molecular rotations. Our simulations indicate that the molecular rotational dynamics in gas-phase cavity-coupled systems can serve as a novel probe for non-radiative polaritonic decay towards the dark-states manifold.

  We show that an isotropic dipolar particle in the vicinity of a substrate made of nonreciprocal plasmonic materials can experience a lateral Casimir force and torque. We connect the existence of the lateral force to the asymmetric dispersion of nonreciprocal surface polaritons and the existence of the lateral torque to the spin-momentum locking of such surface waves.

  A laser resonator exhibiting non-Hermitian, parity-time (PT) symmetric, polarization states is studied. A sharp symmetry-breaking transition is observed at a specific angle, called the exceptional point. The two regimes meet at the exceptional point, where a unique polarization state exists in a resonator free from interference intensity pattern.
