Deriving the static interaction between electric dipoles via the quantum gauge transformation (1302.0920v2)
Published 5 Feb 2013 in quant-ph and physics.atom-ph
Abstract: Gauge transformation leaves the electric and the magnetic fields unchanged as long as the gauge function is treated classically. In this paper we consider the gauge transformation commonly used to obtain the electric dipole interaction Hamiltonian in a system of dipoles and the electromagnetic field (Goeppert-Mayer transformation) and treat the vector potential that appear in the gauge function as an operator. While it modifies the electric field, the static interaction between the dipoles is derived.
