Explore the fascinating world of interactions induced by fluctuating electromagnetic fields in this 44-minute talk by Luis Froufe-Pérez, presented at the Workshop on "Blackbody Radiation Induced Effects and Phenomena" held at the Erwin Schrödinger International Institute for Mathematics and Physics (ESI). Delve into the forces induced by blackbody radiation, focusing on a simplified description of light-matter interaction based on material object polarizability and classical light scattering principles. Gain insights into spatial correlations and spectral density as fundamental aspects of field statistics. Discover how these basic tools can effectively describe well-known phenomena and capture the essential physics of thermal radiation-induced interactions. Explore the potential for tailoring interactions far from thermodynamic equilibrium by designing appropriate spectral energy densities of fluctuating electromagnetic fields. Examine specific applications involving colloidal particles with high refractive indices in the visible range, and investigate the range of possible interactions achievable within realistic parameter ranges.
