The Casimir force - at first a rather unexpected consequence of quantum electrodynamics - was discovered by Hendrik Casimir in Eindhoven in 1948. It predicts that two uncharged metal plates experience an attractive force because of the…
We discuss the limitations of the applicability of the Lifshitz formula to describe the temperature dependence of the Casimir force between two bulk lossy metals. These limitations follow from the finite sizes of the interacting bodies.…
