dc.descriptionIn systems composed of water and hydrocarbons Van der Waals-interactions are dominated by the non-retarded, classical (Keesom) part of the Lifshitz-interaction; the interaction is screened by salt and extends over mesoscopic distances of the order of the size of the (micellar) constituents of complex fluids. We show that these interactions are included intrinsically in a recently introduced local Monte Carlo algorithm for simulating electrostatic interactions between charges in the presence of non-homogeneous dielectric media.
