Multiparticle Near-field Dynamics of Plasmonic Waves
I will describe how the classical near-field dynamics of surface plasmons are defined by nonclassical processes of scattering among their constituent multiparticle subsystems. Additionally, I will discuss plasmonic waves excited by electromagnetic vacuum fluctuations.
