    "abstract": "A new general expression is derived for the fluctuating electromagnetic field\noutside a metal surface, in terms of its surface impedance. It provides a\ngeneralization to real metals of Lifshitz theory of molecular interactions\nbetween dielectric solids. The theory is used to compute the radiative heat\ntransfer between two parallel metal surfaces at different temperatures. It is\nshown that a measurement of this quantity may provide an experimental\nresolution of a long-standing controversy about the effect of thermal\ncorrections on the Casimir force between real metal plates.",
