The Influence of Zero-Point Fluctuations on the Photon Wave Packet Motion in a Vacuum
The influence of zero-point fluctuations on photon propagation in a vacuum is investigated without using normal ordering and renormalization procedures, but in a frame of the conformally unimodular metric for a description of the fluctuating gravitational field. The complete formula for decoherence time is presented.
