• Abstract: We derive modified reflection coefficients for electromagnetic waves in the THz and far infrared range. The idea is based on hydrodynamic boundary conditions for metallic conduction electrons. The temperature-dependent part of the Casimir pressure between metal plates is evaluated. The results should shed light on the "thermal anomaly" where measurements deviate from the standard fluctuation electrodynamics for conducting metals.

  We consider the Casimir pressure between two metallic plates and calculate the four contributions to it determined by the propagating and evanescent waves and by the transverse magnetic and transverse electric polarizations of the electromagnetic field. It is shown that the total transverse magnetic contribution to the Casimir pressure due to both the propagating and evanescent waves and the transverse electric contribution due to only the propagating waves, computed by means of the Drude model, correlate well with the corresponding results obtained using the plasma model.

  Lifshitz theory of Casimir force comes into conflict with measurement data if conduction electrons in metals to electromagnetic fluctuations is described by the well tested dissipative Drude model. Here, we propose the spatially nonlocal phenomenological dielectric functions of metals which lead to nearly the same response, as the standard Drude model, to the propagating waves, but to a different response in the case of evanescent waves. Results are used to compute the effective Casimir pressure between two parallel plates, the Casimir force between a sphere and a plate, and its gradient in configurations of the most precise experiments performed with both non
