Description: Forces of the Quantum Vacuum : An Introduction to Casimir Physics, Paperback by Simpson, William M. R. (EDT); Leonhardt, Ulf (EDT), ISBN 9814632910, ISBN-13 9789814632911, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Eight physicists introduce physics related to the Casimir force and vacuum energies. The form of macroscopic quantum electrodynamics they use is of fairly recent creation, and supersedes its predecessors, they say, and the Casimir physics is moving so quickly that much of this treatise will also soon be outdated, but their goal is an entry point to the field not a comprehensive or definitive treatment. They cover normal mode quantum electrodynamics: the quantum vacuum and its consequences, Van der Waals and Casimir-Polder dispersion forces, the Casimir stress in real materials, macroscopic quantum electrodynamics and vacuum forces, measuring Casimir phenomena, and Casimir forces at the cutting edge.
