    "abstract": "We study the Brownian motion of a charged test particle coupled to\nelectromagnetic vacuum fluctuations near a perfectly reflecting plane boundary.\nThe presence of the boundary modifies the quantum fluctuations of the electric\nfield, which in turn modifies the motion of the test particle. We calculate the\nresulting mean squared fluctuations in the velocity and position of the test\nparticle. In the case of directions transverse to the boundary, the results are\nnegative. This can be interpreted as reducing the quantum uncertainty which\nwould otherwise be present.",
