The phenomena implied by the existence of quantum vacuum fluctuations, grouped under
the title of the Casimir effect, are reviewed, with emphasis on new results discovered in the …

The Casimir effect, reflecting quantum vacuum fluctuations in the electromagnetic field in a
region with material boundaries, has been studied both theoretically and experimentally …

The surface impedance approach is discussed in connection with the precise calculation of
the Casimir force between metallic plates. It allows us to take into account the nonlocal …

The problem with the temperature dependence of the Casimir force is investigated.
Specifically, the entropy behavior in the low temperature limit, which caused debates in the …

We investigate the Casimir interaction between two dielectric spheres immersed in an
electrolyte solution. Since ionized solutions typically correspond to a plasma frequency …

Casimir–van der Waals forces are important in the self-assembly processes of
nanoparticles. In this paper, using a hybrid approach based on Lifshitz theory of Casimir …

The problem with the temperature dependence of the Casimir force is investigated. We
analyse high-temperature limit analytically making calculations at real frequencies. The …

We compute the electromagnetic fluctuations due to evanescent-wave Johnson noise in the
vicinity of a thin conducting film, such as a metallic gate or a two-dimensional electron gas …

We calculate the Casimir force or dispersive van der Waals force between a spherical
nanoparticle and a planar substrate, both with arbitrary dielectric properties. We show that …

It has been predicted that, if gravitational wave reflectors exist, two such parallel plane
gravitational mirrors separated by an empty gap will interact not only via the well-known …
