Comment on "No quantum friction between uniformly moving plates"

preprint2009arXivOpen access

Abstract

Quite recently Philbin et al present new theory of the van der Waals friction at zero temperature. Contrary to the previous theory they claimed that there is no "quantum friction" due to quantum fluctuation of the electromagnetic field between two parallel plates moving relative to each other. We show that this theory is incorrect.
