Abstract :
We describe some preliminary results on a fluctuating volume-current formulation of non-equilibrium fluctuations in inhomogeneous media. The proposed framework generalizes the recently developed power formulas for volume integral equation formulations, in order to facilitate applications including radiative heat transfer, Casimir forces, and fluorescence, in arbitrary geometries.
