The presence of an absorber in the center and the possibility of adopting it to search for axions with mass in the THz region, and possibly the GHz region too, is also discussed. A simple estimate shows that enhancement may be quite significant, and can therefore be of experimental interest. This enhancement is caused by the curvature of the boundary, and is mathematically a consequence of the behavior of the Hankel function of the second kind for small arguments. Finally, including axions again we analyze the enhancement of the surface-generated electromagnetic radiation near the center of a cylindrical haloscope, where the interior region is a vacuum and the exterior region a high refractive index medium. Third, as a special case, by omitting axions for a moment, we analyze the Casimir effect for the string, showing its similarity as well as its difference from the Casimir effect of a scalar field for a piecewise uniform string. As will be shown, a stationary wave pattern is permitted by the formalism, and we show how the amplitudes for the two counterpropagating waves can be found. Second, we consider the situation where the medium exterior to the plate, assumed elastic, is “bent back” and glued together, so that we obtain a circular dielectric string in which the waves can propagate clockwise or counterclockwise. We calculate the electromagnetic energy transmission coefficient for a dielectric plate, and compare with the conventional expression in ordinary electrodynamics. Contains the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) standards and recommendations for the geometric layout and engineering design of runways, taxiways, aprons, and other facilities at civil airports. First, we consider the “antenna-like” property of a planar dielectric surface in axion electrodynamics, elaborating on the treatment given earlier on this topic by Millar et al.
Various aspects of axion electrodynamics in the presence of a homogeneous and isotropic dielectric medium are discussed.
