Thermal Casimir interactions in multi-particle systems: scattering channel approach

Yang Li, Kimball A. Milton, Iver Brevik

Multi-particle thermal Casimir interactions are investigated, mostly in terms of the Casimir entropy, from the point of view based on multiple-scattering processes. The geometry of…

Self-force on moving electric and magnetic dipoles: dipole radiation, Vavilov-Čerenkov radiation, friction with a conducting surface, and the Einstein-Hopf effect

Kimball A. Milton, Hannah Day, Yang Li +2

The classical electromagnetic self-force on an arbitrary time-dependent electric or magnetic dipole moving with constant velocity in vacuum, and in a medium, is considered. Of cour…

Casimir forces in inhomogeneous media: renormalization and the principle of virtual work

Yang Li, Kimball A. Milton, Xin Guo +2

We calculate the Casimir forces in two configurations, namely, three parallel dielectric slabs and a dielectric slab between two perfectly conducting plates, where the dielectric m…

Remarks on the Casimir Self-Entropy of a Spherical Electromagnetic -Function Shell

Kimball A. Milton, Pushpa Kalauni, Prachi Parashar +1

Recently the Casimir self-entropy of an electromagnetic -function shell was considered by two different groups, with apparently discordant conclusions, although both had conclud…

Quantum Electromagnetic Stress Tensor in an Inhomogeneous Medium

Prachi Parashar, Kimball A. Milton, Yang Li +4

Continuing a program of examining the behavior of the vacuum expectation value of the stress tensor in a background which varies only in a single direction, we here study the elect…

Casimir Self-Entropy of a Spherical Electromagnetic -Function Shell

K. A. Milton, Pushpa Kalauni, Prachi Parashar +1

In this paper we continue our program of computing Casimir self-entropies of idealized electrical bodies. Here we consider an electromagnetic -function sphere ("semitransparent…
