Casimir Energy for a Dielectric Cylinder

Ines Cavero-Pelaez, Kimball A. Milton

In this paper we calculate the Casimir energy for a dielectric-diamagnetic cylinder with the speed of light differing on the inside and outside. Although the result is in general d…

On the Temperature Dependence of the Casimir Effect

I. Brevik, J. B. Aarseth, J. S. Høye +1

The temperature dependence of the Casimir force between a real metallic plate and a metallic sphere is analyzed on the basis of optical data concerning the dispersion relation of m…

Recent Developments in Quantum Vacuum Energy for Confined Fields

K. A. Milton

Quantum vacuum energy entered hadronic physics through the zero-point energy parameter introduced into the bag model. Estimates of this parameter led to apparent discordance with p…

Finite Casimir Energies in Renormalizable Quantum Field Theory

Kimball A. Milton

Quantum vacuum energy has been known to have observable consequences since 1948 when Casimir calculated the force of attraction between parallel uncharged plates, a phenomenon conf…

Casimir Energies and Pressures for -function Potentials

Kimball A. Milton

The Casimir energies and pressures for a massless scalar field associated with -function potentials in 1+1 and 3+1 dimensions are calculated. For parallel plane surfaces, the re…
