QUANTUM PHENOMENA IN RESONATORS WITH MOVING WALLS

New solutions for the mode functions of the electromagnetic field in i deal cavity which boundary oscillates at a resonance frequency are obt ained in the long-time limit. The rate of photons creation from initia l vacuum state is shown to be time independent and proportional to the amplitude of oscillations and the resonance frequency. Temperature co rrections are evaluated. The squeezing coefficients for the quantum st ates of the field generated are calculated, as well as the backward re action of the field on the vibrating wall.
