Acoustic Casimir pressure for arbitrary media
In this paper we derive a general expression for the acoustic Casimir pressure between two parallel slabs made of arbitrary materials and whose acoustic reflection coefficients are not equal. The formalism is based on the calculation of the local density of modes using a Green’s function approach. The results for the Casimir acoustic pressure are generalized to a sphere/plate configuration usin...
متن کاملOn Casimir Forces for Media with Arbitrary Dielectric Properties
We derive an expression for the Casimir force between slabs with arbitrary dielectric properties characterized by their reflection coefficients. The formalism presented here is applicable to media with a local or a non-local dielectric response, an infinite or a finite width, inhomogeneous dissipative, etc. Our results reduce to the Lifshitz formula for the force between semi-infinite dielectri...
متن کاملCasimir forces between arbitrary compact objects.
We develop an exact method for computing the Casimir energy between arbitrary compact objects, either dielectrics or perfect conductors. The energy is obtained as an interaction between multipoles, generated by quantum current fluctuations. The objects' shape and composition enter only through their scattering matrices. The result is exact when all multipoles are included, and converges rapidly...
متن کاملCasimir Friction between Dense Polarizable Media
The present paper—a continuation of our recent series of papers on Casimir friction for a pair of particles at low relative particle velocity—extends the analysis, so as to include dense media. The situation becomes, in this case, more complex, due to induced dipolar correlations, both within planes and between planes. We show that the structure of the problem can be simplified by regarding the...
متن کاملQED in arbitrary linear media: amplifying media
Recently, we have developed a unified approach to QED in arbitrary linearly responding media in equilibrium—media that give rise to absorption [Phys. Rev. A 75, (2007) 053813]. In the present paper we show that, under appropriate conditions, the theory can be quite naturally generalized to amplifying media the effect of which is described within the framework of linear response theory. We discu...
