[NewCandle] Chiral metamaterial for repulsive casimir force.

[Keith Nagel]

For those interested in strange forces emanating from
chiral materials, check out this paper.

Not that this really explains a macro scale force as
has been claimed by Kozyrev etc but intriguing example
of casimir force engineering.

Insane idea: Would a plate consisting of a sandwich
of left and righthanded versions of such a material
be pushed along by the resulting force imbalance? (grin).
Casimir sails...
