Medicine & TechnologyThis recently discovered attractive force on neutral atoms is caused by the thermal radiation emitted from black bodies and here we investigate it in systems with spherical and cylindrical symmetries. For some astrophysical objects, we find that the corrected force is greater than the flat case, showing that this kind of correction can be quite relevant when curved spaces are considered.
A theory was recalled and remembered 40 years ago that is called the Unruh Effect. This theory suggests the risk of melting our astronauts when exposed to light year speed. It is still on study for proof as it could alter the state of space travel.
