Comment on ‘No quantum friction between uniformly moving plates’
Abstract
Philbin and Leonhardt (2009 New J. Phys. 11 033035; 2009 arXiv:0904.2148v3 [quant-ph]) recently presented a new theory of van der Waals friction. Contrary to previous theories, they claimed that there is no 'quantum friction' at zero temperature. We argue that this theory is incorrect.
