By means of a statistical derivation it is shown that the momentum-balance equation of a polarized fluid contains a force term that is the divergence of an anisotropic tensor (l/S)PP + (l/lO)P'U, where P is the polarization. However, for a fluid in equilibrium this force term is compensated by an an
The force and torque exerted on a body of arbitrary shape and constitution by a stationary radiation field are in principle given by integrals of Minkowski's stress tensor over a surface surrounding the body. Similarly the absorbed energy is given by an integral of the Poynting vector. These integra
