Dynamically and thermally nonequilibrium fluctuation-electromagnetic interactions: Recent results and trends

摘要

Our recent theoretical developments related to the nonrelativistic and relativistic fluctuation-electromagnetic interactions of bodies with different temperatures moving translationally and (or) rotationally relative to each other are briefly summarized. Three basic geometrical configurations and physical systems are discussed: "a small particle and a thick plate" (i); "a small particle in a radiative vacuum background" (ii) and "two thick plates in relative motion" (iii) - classical Casimir-Lifshitz configuration with allowance for relative motion and different temperatures of plates. For configuration 3, it is shown that the theory of friction and heat exchange by Levin-Polevoi-Rytov proves to be quite adequate contrary to the settled point of view of many authors.
