Calculation of thermal van der Waals interaction using Casimir-Polder potential
In this study, thermal Casimir-Polder potential is calculated for an atom in the presence of a dielectric sphere using the formula given in terms of the Green’s function. Then, the limiting cases of large and small sphere are investigated. In the limiting case of a large sphere, the formula of therm...
