Høye, I. Brevik] Abstract.: The Casimir friction problem can be dealt with in a simplified way by considering two harmonic oscillators moving with constant relative velocity. Recently we calculated the energy dissipationΔE for such a case [Europhys. Lett. 91, 60003 (2010); Eur. Phys. J. D 61, 335 (2011)]. A recent study of Barton [New J. Phys. 12, 113044 (2010)] seemingly leads to a different result for the dissipation. If such a discrepancy really were true, it would imply a delicate difficulty for the basic theory of Casimir friction. In the present note we show that the expressions forΔE are in fact physically equivalent, at T=0. EDP Sciences, SIF, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, 2011 Høye J.S.
