Quantum friction near nonreciprocal media — •Omar Jesús Franca Santiago and Stefan Yoshi Buhmann — Institute of Physics, University of Kassel, Germany

We investigate how the quantum friction experienced by a polarisable charged particle moving with constant velocity parallel to a planar interface is modified when the latter consists of nonreciprocal media, with special focus on topological insulators. We use macroscopic quantum electrodynamics to obtain the Casimir--Polder frequency shift, decay rate and force for the atom. These results are a generalization of the respective quantities to matter with time-reversal symmetry breaking which violates the Lorentz reciprocity principle.
