arXiv:1211.5056 · doi:10.1088/1751-8113/45/37/374021

Abstract

Theory of the Casimir effect is presented in several examples. Casimir - Polder type formulas, Lifshitz theory and theory of the Casimir effect for two gratings separated by a vacuum slit are derived. Equations for the electromagnetic field in the presence of a medium and dispersion are discussed. Casimir effect for systems with a layer of 2+1 fermions is studied.
