Dispersion Forces II Many-Body Effects, Excited Atoms, Finite Temperature and Quantum Friction /

In this book, a modern unified theory of dispersion forces on atoms and bodies is presented which covers a broad range of advanced aspects and scenarios. Macroscopic quantum electrodynamics is shown to provide a powerful framework for dispersion forces which allows for discussing general properties...
