Fluctuation-electromagnetic interaction of a small particle with evanescent modes of the surface: impact of translational motion and rotation
arXiv:1302.6701
Abstract
Based on the fluctuation-electromagnetic theory, we have calculated tangential (frictional) and normal forces, radiation heat flux and frictional torque on a small rotating particle moving at a nonrelativistic velocity close to a smooth featureless surface. The particle and surface are characterized by different temperatures corresponding to the local thermodynamic equilibrium in their own reference frames.
