A general expression is derived for the momentum diffusion constant of a small polarizable particle in blackbody radiation, and is shown to be closely related to the long-wavelength collisional decoherence rate for such a particle in a thermal environment. We show how this diffusion constant appears in the steady-state photon emission rate of two dipoles induced by blackbody radiation. We consider in addition the Einstein--Hopf drag force on a small polarizable particle moving in a blackbody field, and derive its fully relativistic form from the Lorentz transformation of forces.

Momentum Diffusion, Decoherence and Drag Force on a Magnetic Nanoparticle
The magnetic (diamagnetic) contribution to momentum diffusion, decoherence, and thermal drag of a levitated nanoparticle is derived and shown to be several orders of magnitude smaller than the dielectric contribution.

Magnetic noise in macroscopic quantum spatial superposition
Magnetic gradient noise in a Stern-Gerlach nanodiamond interferometer sets a current-noise budget of δI/I≈10⁻⁸ for ~100 Hz decoherence, but the Humpty-Dumpty contrast demonstration contains unit and numerical inconsistencies.
