What is the literature on squeezed electric field modes in accelerated frames?

[Philcorp]

Trying to do some reading on squeezed electric field modes in accelerated frames, and it's a bit much. Anyone have any suggestions as to some literature to familiarize myself with before i go any further? Thanks

Phil

Hey Phil, I've been trying to read about this too and have had the following books recommended:

Birrell & Davies, Quantum fields in curved space
Fulling, Aspects of quantum field theory in curved space-time
Bjorken & Drell, Relativistic quantum mechanics
Bjorken & Drell, Relativistic quantum fields
Scully & Zubairy, Quantum optics
Meystre & Sargent III, Elements of quantum optics

This is obviously a whole lot of reading for a summer undergrad project... Anybody have any suggestions on narrowing the field, either to one of these texts or another suggestion, to help make papers such as Alsing & Milburn's Teleportation with a uniformly accelerated partner more accessible? I've taken undergrad courses in GR, QM and E&M but have no QFT experience.

Thanks,
Mike

Thanks mike. I am going to head over to the library today and pick up a couple of those books. Your reference will hopefully be appreciated.

Thx again

Phil
