Abstract

Applying a sum-over-modes approach to the Casimir interaction between two plates with finite conductivity, we isolate and study the contributions of surface plasmons and Foucault (eddy current) modes. We show in particular that for the TE-polarization eddy currents provide a repulsive force that cancels, at high temperatures, the Casimir free energy calculated with the plasma model. ; Comment: 5 pages, 1 figure, proceedings of conference "Quantum field theory under the influence of external boundary conditions" (QFExt, Oklahoma, September 2009)
