- Abstract: We study the influence of impurities in graphene described by a scattering
rate $\Gamma$ on the Casimir interaction between graphene and an ideal
conductor or between two identical sheets of graphene at zero temperature and
chemical potential. To this end, we compute the polarization tensor of
quasiparticles in graphene and corresponding conductivities for TE and TM
channels. The Casimir energy density is evaluated with the help of the Lifshitz
formula. We find that depending on the value of mass gap parameter the presence
of $\Gamma$ may lead to a slight damping or to a considerable enhancement of
the Casimir interaction.

We investigate the Casimir-Lifshitz force (CLF) between two identical graphene strip gratings.
We take into account the high-order electromagnetic diffractions, the multiple scattering and the exact 2D feature of the graphene strips.
We show that the non-additivity, which is one of the most interesting features of the CLF in general, is significantly high and can be modulated in situ.

We predict significant or measurable non-adiabatic effects in an ultracold atom-ion charge-exchange reaction.
In the laser frequency window, where conical interactions are present, the difference in rate coefficients can be as large as $10-9$ cm$3$/s.
