Abstract
A new method for determining the dispersion interaction between arbitrary bodies of an arbitrary shape, based on the theory of excitation of cavities, is proposed. The Rytov–Levin–Lifshitz approach with introducing fluctuation current sources into Maxwell’s equations was used, which gave equations for determining correlations of fluctuation currents, and correlations of the fields were obtained. Determining the correlations is an inverse problem, formulated on the basis of Kirchhoff’s detailed equilibrium principle.
