Polarization of Vacuum Fluctuations: Source of the Vacuum Permittivity and Speed of Light

Abstract There are two types of fluctuations in the quantum vacuum: type 1 vacuum fluctuations are on shell and can interact with matter in specific, limited ways that have observable consequences; type 2 vacuum fluctuations are off shell and cannot interact with matter. A photon will polarize a typ...
