Fluctuational Electrodynamics: Momentum, Energy and Entropy Transport
ISBN-13: 9783639666854 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 164 str.
Quantum and thermal fluctuations of electromagnetic fields, which give rise to Planck's law of blackbody radiation, are also responsible for van der Waals and Casimir forces, as well as near-field radiative energy transfer between objects. Electromagnetic waves transport energy, momentum, and entropy. For classical thermal radiation, the dependence of the above mentioned quantities on the temperature is well-known mainly due to Planck's work. When near-field effects, namely the collective influence of diffraction, interference, and tunneling of surface waves, become important, Planck's theory is no longer valid. In this book, the author investigates the transport of momentum, energy, and entropy due to electromagnetic fluctuations while taking into account near-field effects.
