TY - JOUR A1 - Pieplow, Gregor A1 - Henkel, Carsten T1 - Fully covariant radiation force on a polarizable particle JF - New journal of physics : the open-access journal for physics N2 - The electromagnetic force on a polarizable particle is calculated in a covariant framework. Local equilibrium temperatures for the electromagnetic field and the particle's dipole moment are assumed, using a relativistic formulation of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem. Two examples illustrate radiative friction forces: a particle moving through a homogeneous radiation background and above a planar interface. Previous results for arbitrary relative velocities are recovered in a compact way. Y1 - 2013 U6 - https://doi.org/10.1088/1367-2630/15/2/023027 SN - 1367-2630 VL - 15 IS - 4 PB - IOP Publ. Ltd.
