Abstract

A relativistic theory of fluctuation -electromagnetic interaction of a small polarizable particle moving with respect to the equilibrium background radiation is reviewed. It is assumed that the particle radius is smaller then characteristic wave length of the background radiation. General relativistic relations for the particle heating rate and tangential force are obtained and compared with nonrelativistic and relativistic expressions of other authors.
