Casimir Energy of Massless Fermions in the Slab-bag
arXiv:hep-th/9905039 · doi:10.1142/S0217732399002431
Abstract
The zero-point energy of a massless fermion field in the interior of two parallel plates in a D-dimensional space-time at zero temperature is calculated. In order to regularize the model, a mix between dimensional and zeta-function regularization procedure is used and it is found that the regularized zero-point energy density is finite for any number of space-time dimensions. We present a general expression for the Casimir energy for the fermionic field in such a situation.
