M ay 2 00 6 Theory of friction : contribution from fluctuating electromagnetic field
We calculate the friction force between two semi-infinite solids in relative parallel motion (velocity V), and separated by a vacuum gap of width d. The friction force result from coupling via a fluctuating electromagnetic field, and can be considered as the dissipative part of the van der Waals interaction. We consider the dependence of the friction force on the temperature T , and present a d...

متن کاملFriction forces arising from fluctuating thermal fields
We calculate the damping of a classical oscillator induced by the electromagnetic field generated by thermally fluctuating currents in the environment. The fluctuation-dissipation theorem is applied to derive the linear-velocity damping coefficient g . It turns out that g is the result of fourth-order correlation functions. The theory is applied to a particle oscillating parallel to a flat subs...
متن کاملfrom linguistics to literature: a linguistic approach to the study of linguistic deviations in the turkish divan of shahriar
chapter i provides an overview of structural linguistics and touches upon the saussurean dichotomies with the final goal of exploring their relevance to the stylistic studies of literature. to provide evidence for the singificance of the study, chapter ii deals with the controversial issue of linguistics and literature, and presents opposing views which, at the same time, have been central to t...
15 صفحه اولFluctuating-friction molecular motors
We show that the correlated stochastic fluctuation of the friction coefficient can give rise to long-range directional motion of a particle undergoing Brownian random walk in a constant periodic energy potential landscape. The occurrence of this motion requires the presence of two additional independent bodies interacting with the particle via friction and via the energy potential, respectively...
