✦ Synopsis

The dielectric response, (iΞΎ ), for water (which is required in Lifshitz theory to calculate the van der Waals interactions in aqueous systems) is commonly constructed, in the absence of complete spectral data, by fitting a damped-harmonic-oscillator model to absorption data. Two sets of parameters for the model have been developed corresponding to different constraints: Parsegian and Weiss (J.

We present calculations of the van der Waals force for carbon black dispersions in both aqueous and nonaqueous media using Lifshitz theory. The microstructure and composition of carbon black are complex, but an initial approximation to the shell-like microstructure of carbon black allows the local i

The relativistic effects on the quantization of the harmonic oscillator are determined from a perturbation calculation using matrices obtained in the nonrelativistic case. One finds that the energy levels are no longer evenly spaced although the usual transition rules still hold. When a system of
