• Abstract: We theoretically investigate the Casimir effect originating from Dirac fields in finite-density matter under a magnetic field. In particular, we focus on quark fields in the magnetic dual chiral density wave (MDCDW) phase as a possible inhomogeneous ground state of interacting Dirac-fermion systems. In this system, the distance dependence of Casimir energy shows a complex oscillatory behavior by the interplay between the chemical potential, magnetic field, and inhomogeneous ground state. By decomposing the total Casimir energy into contributions of each Landau level, we elucidate what types of Casimir effects are realized from each Landau level: the lowest or some types of higher Landau levels lead to different behaviors of Casimir energies. Furthermore, we point out characteristic behaviors due to level splitting between different fermion flavors, i.e., up/down quarks. These findings provide new insights into Dirac-fermion (or quark) matter with a finite thickness.

• On the fermionic van der Waals and Casimir-Polder interactions [0.0]
  We formulate fermionic versions of the van der Waals and Casimir-Polder interactions, and study their properties. In both cases, the systems we introduce contain localized atoms': two-level systems, coupled to a vacuum Dirac field. This Dirac field plays here a role akin to the electromagnetic field in the van der Waals case. In this context, bag-model conditions for the Dirac field serve as the analog of the'mirror' in the Casimir-Polder effect.

• Dual chiral density wave induced oscillating Casimir effect [0.0]
  We investigate what types of Casimir effects can occur from quark fields in dense and thin quark matter. In particular, in the dual chiral density wave, we find that the Casimir energy oscillates as a function of the thickness of matter. This oscillating Casimir effect is regarded as an analog of that in Weyl semimetals and is attributed to the Weyl points in the momentum space of quark fields.

  Quasiparticles are emergent excitations of matter that underlie much of our understanding of quantum many-body systems. We take advantage of the clean setting of homogeneous quantum gases and fast radio-frequency control to manipulate Fermi polarons. We measure the decay rate and the quasiparticle residue of the driven polaron from the Rabi oscillations between the two internal states.

  We study the effect of the Lorentz symmetry breaking on the Casimir energy of charged Dirac in the presence of a uniform magnetic field. We investigate two cases of the direction of violation, namely, time-like and space-like vector cases. We discuss how the Lorentz violation and the magnetic field affect the structure of the Casimir energy and its pressure.

• Dirac/Weyl-node-induced oscillating Casimir effect [0.0]
  The Casimir effect is a quantum phenomenon induced by the zero-point energy of relativistic fields confined in a finite-size system. We show the typical properties of the Casimir effect for relativistic electron fields in Dirac/Weyl semimetals. We find an oscillation of the Casimir energy as a function of the thickness of the thin film, which stems from the existence of Dirac/Weyl nodes in momentum space.

  Electrical control of spins at the nanoscale offers architectural advantages in spintronics.

E-field sensitivities reported so far are rather weak, prompting the question of how to design molecules with stronger spin-electric couplings.
