Casimir effect between ponderable media as modeled by the standard model extension

A Martín-Ruiz, CA Escobar - Physical Review D, 2016 - APS
The CPT-even sector of the standard model extension amounts to extending Maxwell
electrodynamics by a gauge invariant term of the form-1 4 (k F) α β μ ν F α β F μ ν, where the …

Local effects of the quantum vacuum in Lorentz-violating electrodynamics

A Martín-Ruiz, CA Escobar - Physical Review D, 2017 - APS
The Casimir effect is one of the most remarkable consequences of the nonzero vacuum
energy predicted by quantum field theory. In this paper we use a local approach to study the …

Testing Lorentz and invariance with ultracold neutrons

A Martín-Ruiz, CA Escobar - Physical Review D, 2018 - APS
In this paper we investigate, within the standard model extension framework, the influence of
Lorentz-and CPT-violating terms on gravitational quantum states of ultracold neutrons …

Analysis of the quantum bouncer using polymer quantization

A Martín-Ruiz, A Frank, LF Urrutia - Physical Review D, 2015 - APS
Polymer quantization (PQ) is a background independent quantization scheme that arises in
loop quantum gravity. This framework leads to a new short-distance (discretized) structure …

Casimir effect in polymer scalar field theory

CA Escobar, E Chan-López, A Martín-Ruiz - Physical Review D, 2020 - APS
We study the Casimir effect in the classical geometry of two parallel conducting plates,
separated by a distance L, due to the presence of a minimal length λ arising from a …

The Polymer Bouncer

A Martin-Ruiz, A Frank, LF Urrutia - arxiv preprint arxiv:1506.00183, 2015 - arxiv.org
Polymer Quantization (PQ) is a background independent quantization scheme that is
deployed in Loop Quantum Gravity. This framework leads to a new short-distance …
