Photon Propagation > s.a. diffraction; light [including
orbital L]; Raman and Rayleigh
Scattering; polarization; wave
phenomena.
* In modified QED vacua: In
the low-energy (
mec2) the speed of propagation can
be written as
v = 1 – (44
2/135)
(u/me4)
,
where u is the (renormalized) background energy density, and the
coefficient is related to the trace anomaly of the energgy-momentum tensor,
for weak background
fields.
