Casimir forces between spheres

preprint2009arXivOpen access

Abstract

We discuss the calculation of Casimir forces between a collection of NN-dielectric spheres. This is done by evaluating directly the force on a sphere constructed from a stress tensor, rather than an interaction energy. Two and three body forces between the spheres are evaluated for setups of two and three sphere systems respectively. An approximate large-NN limit is also obtained for the functional dependence on the number of spheres.
