Three-body Casimir effects and nonmonotonic forces
Casimir interactions are not pairwise additive. This property leads to collective effects that we study for a pair of objects near a conducting wall. We employ a scattering approach to compute the interaction in terms of fluctuating multipoles. The wall can lead to a nonmonotonic force between the o...
