On the origin of the transfer of modulation between microwave beams

Abstract: New results are obtained with a modified experimental setup, in order to reduce the residual detected signal when the unmodulated beam is strongly attenuated. In the light of these results, the transfer of modulation, from the modulated beam to the unmodulated one, can be attributed to a photon–photon scattering mechanism, operating in the crossing area of the two beams. Even the stochastic character of the process becomes more plausible.

“…Results of delay-time measurements show a rather unexpected, irregular behavior which reinforces the hypothesis of the presence of stochastic processes [4,5]. The shape of these data can be considered to be representative of the hypothesized zig-zag random paths.…”

“…Therefore, the experimental setup was modified in order to reduce spurious effects. The hypothesis of the stochastic nature of the involved process was thus confirmed as concomitant and co-operating with a photon-photon scattering mechanism [5]. In this framework, the temporal behavior turned out to be opposite to the previous one, that is-as will be demonstrated-decidedly subluminal.…”

“…This model consists of a zig‐zag random path experienced by the “particle”, a kind of motion that is known to be described with the telegrapher's equation 2 . Subsequently, we realized that interference could be merely responsible of part of the transferred signal 3 . This fact induced us to modify the experimental apparatus in order to minimize such residual*.…”

“…
New results, as reported in a forthcoming paper (Cacciari & Ranfagni, 2022), induced us to modify our point of view on the origin of the transfer of modulation between microwave beams. We believe that a commentary and addition of information to the paper published as Reference 1 appear appropriate.
