We discuss a simple toy model which allows, in a natural way, for deriving central facts from thermodynamics such as its fundamental laws, including Carnot's version of the second principle. Our viewpoint represents thermodynamic systems as…
We compare theoretical expectations for the Casimir force with the results of precise measurements. The force is calculated at finite temperature for multilayered covering of the bodies using the Lifshitz theory. We argue that the…
In a recent paper (arXiv:2003.00760) and a related article (Z. Naturforsch. A 75, 803-807), S.-A. Biehs et al. present erroneous interpretations of our work on the heat transfer driven by Casimir force. Here, we clarify several key concepts…
