That was my question to you -(there was a translator mistake, I did not ask a question), Sorry.
It happens, no problem. I think I see what you meant there now.
Thank. The work of the Nobel laureate showed that the process of emission of a photon by an excited atom can depend on environmental parameters - for example, on the size of the resonator (note, I used the term "for example", that there may be additional options)
In this case, if I understand correctly, there may be time delays. I also saw descriptions of the effects of signal delays in fiber optic technology, where there is a term - delay line. Since I drew attention to the term period of fluctuations, I began to think - how to break it.
I thought that there could be “delays” in the resonator, in the physics of the reflection of EM waves from a conductor. I remember two terms - the phase velocity of propagation of an EM wave in a waveguide and the group velocity. Phase - the speed of movement of the crests of the wave - it does not transfer energy. Group velocity is the velocity of a wave packet — it transfers energy.
No, that Nobel prize is about a single atom with a single electron in an excited state placed in a small quantum mechanical system, it has no application or relevance to what we are discussing here. The delays you are talking about have nothing to do with that research.

The Russian article discusses the phenomenon of delayed emission of an excited atom due to the cavity walls. I see this simply as algorithm number 1. Yes, it’s somehow not right, but it’s just a source of inspiration, silly thoughts and new (possibly even progressive) ideas.
I suggest once again to ponder this situation. An excited atom is in a vacuum, no one “touches” it (the cavity walls are a centimeter away from the atom!), We are not exposed to it by any external electromagnetic fields. We only limit the vacuum around it - and this is already enough to prevent or, conversely, contribute to the emission of a photon.
I immediately go on, I have a solid wall of the drive, and said wow, it turns out there is solid physics, which will allow us to build a special machine on the surface of this wall, the device - what will happen
1) to catch the photons incident on the walls that are about to create eddy currents on the free electrons in the wall.
2) magically slow down / accelerate (freeze) these electrons and create a time delay (I don’t know why

and maybe come up with something else.
3) to hold in a temporary trap a portion of photons that has already come to the wall, and a portion of photons that already wants to bounce off the wall.
4) the goal is to catch a few photons and increase the EM field strength at the wall boundary several times.
5) I don’t know how, maybe just in a thin layer of the cavity wall to take and slow down the speed of light. I immediately remembered that
F = 2P/c , and said - I found an algorithm on how to increase the pressure on the wall on one wall of the resonator, without spending additional energy from the side of the RF source, without violating the conservation of momentum. All you need to catch and hold the photons for a split second by changing the group velocity in the "thin layer".
What does it all mean. Let's divide the general task into two parts. Part 1 - learn how to create increased radiation pressure on the cavity walls. Learning to create on the same walls, in a symmetric resonator, is just a different pressure. I even once drew a photon rocket project where there is a trap for photons. (See picture 1)
Then Part 2 is to find an algorithm, the idea is how to build a car that will work on a pressure differential We don't have this idea yet, so what? We solve the problem in stages. The main thing is to prove that you can create higher pressure in the local area.
Comment. In a simulation of an antenna with a dipole with two reflectors, I see that if the reflectors are very close to the antenna - that the antenna is "unlucky and unable" to emit EM waves in the far zone. It looks like a complete analog of the passing atom from the Nobel Prize.
My thought has no boundaries, I specifically remove the boundaries for thought and try to come up with the most stupid questions. (I was taught this at the university).
There are situations where that is helpful, but not when you let it get to the point of 1+1=3, and the next step you need to do (which you should be able to do without bouncing every idea off me) is check if what you came up with makes any sense at all.
=====
I read 10 volumes of the most complete physics and 300 more speculative works in physics. I did not see in the textbooks a working idea for building a motor for a spaceship. Therefore, we should discuss as much as possible even the most stupid thoughts, even if 1 + 1 = 3.
I am creating a stupid new question - is it possible to use group velocity (delay algorithm) to create different radiation pressure on the end walls of the resonator.
Is it possible to intervene in the physics of reflection from the conductor of the incident wave, so as to create stronger asymmetry in the flows of incident and reflected energy. Above I see an example of such an intervention - using "geometry". What is radiation pressure? This is the force acting on free charges in a conductor from the side of an electric and magnetic field.
1. If, as a result of “energy retention on the surface”, the intensities of these fields are greater, the pressure force will also be greater.
2. If, as a result of "energy retention on the surface", the intensities of these fields are less, the pressure force will also be less.
3. There are two end walls in the resonator - if there is more energy on one and less on the other, then there will be a rocket thrust.
Am I reasoning right? Am I not trying to deceive the law of conservation of momentum?
No, delays would not change the forces. Your end result of asymmetric forces with no exhaust still breaks conservation of momentum by definition.
OK item until 3 omitted. Let's first build a tube or box and learn how to simply change the pressure of a photon gas in it, where the resonance geometry is just an important, but not the last condition. (It’s immediately clear why Emdrive failed in replicas, right?)
Please look at the two pictures below? This is the idea of a rocket from a thin waveguide that floats in the rays of light. What could be here? Where will such a rocket fly? I have more stupid questions for these rockets:).
The first one as drawn would not produce any force, however in reality, the exit being smaller than the entrance means that the exiting photons would not leave in a straight line, but would be spread out across a range of angles. A bit of momentum would therefore transfer to the device, but there is an existing device called a solar sail (basically a giant mirror) that would be much more effective.
The second one would work, although the force would be close to equal in the horizontal and vertical directions, with the horizontal force being slightly stronger if anything (for same reasons as why the previous picture would generate a tiny bit of force). The second one would actually generate comparable force to a solar sail, but a solar sail would be lighter for collecting the same amount of energy.
Let's discuss the first picture. Photons fly out of the waveguide and create reactive traction. I want (a silly thought) that this thing does not fly backwards (like a sail) but forward (with a mouthpiece forward). Like the Sun, it is such an optical tweezers that it attracts the solar sail, and does not repel it. Can you come up with this? if so, it will be very cool. It somehow can be connected with metamaterials, as the 1st option.
And in the second picture - I added another knee, and I want this thing to be motionless or almost motionless (in zero gravity), that if it is like a sail, then this sail almost does not work. But reliably emits photons back to the Sun. (See picture 2)
