Axial Casimir force
Abstract
Quantum fluctuations in vacuum can exert a dissipative force on moving objects, which is known as Casimir friction. Specifically, a rotating particle in the vacuum will eventually slow down due to the dissipative Casimir friction. Here, we confirm a dissipationless force by examining a rotating particle near a bi-isotropic media that generally breaks parity symmetry or/and time-reversal symmetry. The direction of the dissipationless vacuum force is always parallel with the rotating axis of the particle. We therefore call this dissipationless vacuum force the axial Casimir force.
