Casimir torques between anisotropic boundaries in nematic liquid crystals.
Fluctuation-induced interactions between anisotropic objects immersed in a nematic liquid crystal are shown to depend on the relative orientation of these objects. The resulting long-range "Casimir" torques are explicitly calculated for a simple geometry where elastic effects are absent. O...
