Linear in temperature correction to the Casimir force
Abstract
We discuss the temperature correction to the Casimir force between nonideal metallic bodies which caused disagreement in the literature. A general method to find the troubling term is proposed that does not require a direct reference to the Lifshitz formula. The linear in temperature correction is shown to survive for nonideal metals. It is important for small separations between bodies tested in the recent experiments.
