A one-component plasma is bounded by a plane surface. The plasma is fully coupled to the electromagnetic field, therefore the charge correlations are retarded. The quantum correlation function of the surface charge densities, at times different by $t$, at asymptotical large distances $R$, at inverse temperature $\\beta$, decays as $-1/(8\\pi^2\\beta R^3)$, a surprisingly simple result: the decay is independent of Planck's constant $\\hbar$ and of the time difference $t$. The present paper is based on the analysis of the collective vibration modes of the system.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2008-11-03T13:22:06.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05.30.-d", "52.40.Db", "73.20.Mf", "05.40.-a" ], "keywords": [ "equilibrium long-ranged charge correlations", "electromagnetic radiation", "quantum correlation function", "surface charge densities" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review E", "year": 2009, "month": "Feb", "volume": 79, "number": 2, "pages": "021111" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 6, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009PhRvE..79b1111J" } } }
