Cavity Casimir-Polder Forces and Their Effects in Ground-State Chemical Reactivity

Here, we present a fundamental study on how the ground-state chemical reactivity of a single molecule can be modified in a QED scenario, i.e., when it is placed inside a nanoscale cavity and there is strong coupling between the cavity field and vibrational modes within the molecule. We work with a m...
