Dynamical Casimir-Polder Interaction between a Moving Chiral Molecule and a Surface

This paper aims to evaluate the time-dependent Casimir-Polder force of a moving chiral molecule and a magnetodielectric chiral body at finite temperature. The chiral body can be an ensemble of molecules in a biological environment. The temporal evolution of the Casimir-Polder force is considered. The dynamical Casimir-Polder is arising from the movement of the chiral molecule and selfdressing effect is calculated and specific dependence of the force on the velocity, distance and material properties are found. To give an example, the Casimir force of a dimethyl disulfide, which moves above a perfect mirror with positive chirality, is studied. It was observed that the self-dressing part of the Casimir-Polder force was larger than the velocity-dependent part.
