Abstract
We describe the interaction between an electromagnetic field and a long Josephson junction driven by a dc current. We calculate the amplitudes of emission and absorption of light via the creation and annihilation of quantized Josephson plasma waves (JPWs). Both the energies of JPW quanta and the amplitudes of light absorption and emission strongly depend on the junction's length and can be tuned by an applied dc current. Moreover, photon-assisted macroscopic quantum tunneling in long Josephson junctions shows resonances when the frequency of the outside radiation coincides with the current-driven eigenfrequencies of the quantized JPWs.
