Entanglement dynamics of accelerated atoms with environment-induced interactions
Abstract
We investigate the influence of environment-induced interactions on the entanglement dynamics of two uniformly accelerated atoms coupled to a fluctuating massless scalar field with a reflecting boundary. The two atoms are aligned vertically to the boundary. The entanglement behaviors are influenced by the competition between the environment-induced interatomic and the environment-induced atom-plate interactions, which can be characterized by certain critical values. The maximum of concurrence generated during evolution decreases non-monotonically with the acceleration, which implies the anti-Unruh phenomenon can exist for some situations even when both environment-induced interatomic and the environment-induced atom-plate interactions are considered.
