A boundary effect in quantum mechanics

We show that a quantum system consisting of particles inside an infinite spherical well with a moving wall is equivalent to the particle interacting with an electromagnetic field that dependens on the wall motion. The effective Hamiltonian is constructed and the properties of the electromagnetic fie...

Summary:We show that a quantum system consisting of particles inside an infinite spherical well with a moving wall is equivalent to the particle interacting with an electromagnetic field that dependens on the wall motion. The effective Hamiltonian is constructed and the properties of the electromagnetic field are discussed.
