Quantum Flux from a Moving Spherical Mirror

Abstract

We calculate the flux from a spherical mirror which is expanding or contracting with nearly uniform acceleration. We find that the flux at an exterior point (which could in principle be a functional of the mirror's past history) is actually found to be a local function, depending on the first and second time derivatives of acceleration at the retarded time.
