Radiation properties of an oscillating atom in the presence of external fields
Abstract
In the first part of the present work, the correction to photon emission rate of an oscillating two-level atom in the presence of electromagnetic quantum vacuum field has been investigated for two different configurations: (i) Atom is trapped in the vicinity of a perfect conductor (ii) Atom is trapped between two perfect conductors. In the second part, the correction to the decay rate of an initially excited oscillating two-level atom due to the presence of a perfect conducting surface is found.
