Abstract |
|
|
| Two atoms located in a one dimensional waveguide with initially one of them in the excited state interact by exchanging
photons. We analyze the exchange process distinguishing between real and virtual photons contributions, and comparing between the
Coulomb and Goeppert-Mayer gauges. We show that gauge-independent coupling terms can be interpreted in a simple way using the
time-energy incertitude relation |
