Electromagnetic Viscosity in Complex Structured Environments: From black-body to Quantum Friction

by Marty Oelschläger, D. Reiche, C. H. Egerland, K. Busch, F. Intravaia

Year:

2022

Publication:

Phys. Rev. A 106, 052205

Abstract:

We investigate the steady-state nonconservative open-system dynamics of an atom in a generic complex structured electromagnetic environment at finite temperature T. In such systems, when the atom moves along a translation-invariant axis of the environment, a frictional force acts on the particle.

Additional Information


Brief introduction of the dida co-author(s) and relevance for dida's ML developments.

Marty Oelschläger (PhD)

During their studies in physics (HU Berlin) Marty investigated optimization and inverse problems, utilizing Python and Fortran. In their PhD thesis (Max Born institute) they focused on fluctuation-induced phenomena, where they investigated the interplay of classical and quantum statistics. During this time they gained experience in code development and design in C, C++, and Python and developed interest in machine learning. After their PhD they focused on Deep Learning and works at dida in the role as ML Scientist as well as Project Lead and Project Manager.
