We predict that two electron beams can develop an instability when passing through a slab of left-handed media (LHM). This instability, which is inherent only for LHM, originates from the backward Cherenkov radiation and results in a self-modulation of the beams and radiation of electromagnetic waves. These waves leave the sample via the rear surface of the slab (the beam injection plane) and form two shifted bright circles centered at the beams. A simulated spectrum of radiation has well-separated lines on top of a broad continuous spectrum, which indicates dynamical chaos in the system. The radiation intensity and its spectrum can be controlled either by the beams current or by the distance between the two beams.

Left-handed metamaterials make perfect lenses that image classical electromagnetic fields with significantly higher resolution than the diffraction limit. Here we consider the quantum physics of such devices. We show that the Casimir force of two con ducting plates may turn from attraction to repulsion if a perfect lens is sandwiched between them. For optical left-handed metamaterials this repulsive force of the quantum vacuum may levitate ultra-thin mirrors.
We propose a model with the left-handed and right-handed continuous Abelian gauge symmetry; $U(1)_Ltimes U(1)_R$. Then three right-handed neutrinos are naturally required to achieve $U(1)_R$ anomaly cancellations, while several mirror fermions are al so needed to do $U(1)_L$ anomaly cancellations. Then we formulate the model, and discuss its testability of the new gauge interactions at collider physics such as the large hadron collider (LHC) and the international linear collider (ILC). In particular, we can investigate chiral structure of the interactions by the analysis of forward-backward asymmetry based on polarized beam at the ILC.

Featuring dense spatial distributions of engineered metallic particles, electromagnetic metamaterials exhibit simultaneously negative values of both, dielectric permittivity and magnetic permeability, within a resonance frequency band called left-han ded passband. Unusual electromagnetic properties are found resulting in promising applications such as sub-wavelength resolution imaging. State-of-the-art micro/nanomanufacturing has led to resonance frequencies reaching the visible red. The common embedding of the metal particles in plastic matrices or deposition on dielectric substrates within a small area severely limits the usefulness of the materials. Here, we use UV or X-ray lithography to build comparably large areas and quantities of the first freely-suspended matrix-free metamaterials in which the metallic structures are S-string-like with their ends held by a window-frame. In vacuo spectral characterization combined with simulation reveals left-handed passbands from 1.6 to 2.2 THz. Owing to their size, the devices can be easily handled. They offer a straightforward way of making them tunable and two-dimensionally isotropic.

A [pi]-shaped metallic metamaterial (geometrically, a combination medium of C-shaped resonators and continuous wires) is proposed to numerically investigate its transmission band near the resonant frequency, where otherwise it should be a negative-pe rmeability (or negative-permittivity) stop band if either the C-shaped or continuous-wire constituent is separately considered. However, in contrast to the left-handed materials (LHMs)composed of split-ring resonators and wires as well as other metallic LHMs, this resonant transmission is a non-left-handed one as a result of the intrinsic bianisotropic effect attributed to the electrically asymmetric configuration of this [pi]-shaped metamaterial.
Metamaterial resonant structures made from arrays of superconducting lumped circuit elements can exhibit microwave mode spectra with left-handed dispersion, resulting in a high density of modes in the same frequency range where superconducting qubits are typically operated, as well as a bandgap at lower frequencies that extends down to dc. Using this novel regime for multi-mode circuit quantum electrodynamics, we have performed a series of measurements of such a superconducting metamaterial resonator coupled to a flux-tunable transmon qubit. Through microwave measurements of the metamaterial, we have observed the coupling of the qubit to each of the modes that it passes through. Using a separate readout resonator, we have probed the qubit dispersively and characterized the qubit energy relaxation as a function of frequency, which is strongly affected by the Purcell effect in the presence of the dense mode spectrum. Additionally, we have investigated the ac Stark shift of the qubit as the photon number in the various metamaterial modes is varied. The ability to tailor the dense mode spectrum through the choice of circuit parameters and manipulate the photonic state of the metamaterial through interactions with qubits makes this a promising platform for analog quantum simulation and quantum memories.
