Sign inversion in the lateral van der Waals force between an anisotropic particle and a plane with a hemispherical protuberance: an exact calculation

Lucas Queiroz, Edson C. M. Nogueira, Danilo T. Alves

We investigate the lateral van der Waals (vdW) force between an anisotropic polarizable particle and a perfectly conducting plane with a hemispherical protuberance with radius .…

Curvature-induced repulsive effect on the lateral Casimir-Polder--van der Waals force

Danilo T. Alves, Lucas Queiroz, Edson C. M. Nogueira +1

We consider a perfectly conducting infinite cylinder with radius , and investigate the Casimir-Polder (CP) and van der Waals (vdW) interactions with a neutral polarizable partic…

Introducing the notion of tensors through a variation of a Feynman didactic approach

Lucas Queiroz, Edson C. M. Nogueira, Danilo T. Alves

In one of his books [, vol. 2], Feynman presents a didactic approach to introduce basic ideas about tensors, using, as a first example, t…

Regimes of the lateral van der Waals force in the presence of dielectrics

Lucas Queiroz, Edson C. M. Nogueira, Danilo T. Alves

In a recent paper, it was shown that, under the action of the lateral van der Waals (vdW) force due to a perfectly conducting corrugated surface, a neutral anisotropic polarizable…

Introducing corrugated surfaces in electromagnetism problems via perturbative approach

Alexandre P. da Costa, Lucas Queiroz, Edson C. M. Nogueira +1

Problems involving boundary conditions on corrugated surfaces are relevant to understand nature, since, at some scale, surfaces manifest corrugations that have to be taken into acc…

Sign inversion in the lateral van der Waals force

Edson C. M. Nogueira, Lucas Queiroz, Danilo T. Alves

We consider a single slight protuberance in a perfectly conducting plane, and investigate the van der Waals (vdW) interaction between this surface and a neutral polarizable particl…
