Weak Coupling Casimir Energies for Finite Plate Configurations

Jef Wagner, Kimball A. Milton, Prachi Parashar

We derive and use an extremely simplified formula for the interaction Casimir energy for two separate bodies in the weak coupling regime for massless scalar fields. We derive close…

Leading- and next-to-leading-order lateral Casimir force on corrugated surfaces

Ines Cavero-Pelaez, Kimball A. Milton, Prachi Parashar +1

We derive explicit analytic expressions for the lateral force for two different configurations with corrugations, parallel plates and concentric cylinders. By making use of the mul…

How Does Quantum Vacuum Energy Accelerate?

K. A. Milton, P. Parashar, J. Wagner +3

We show that Casimir energy for a configuration of parallel plates gravitates according to the equivalence principle both for the finite and divergent parts. This shows that the la…

Exact results for Casimir interactions between dielectric bodies: The weak-coupling or van der Waals Limit

Kimball A. Milton, Prachi Parashar, Jef Wagner

In earlier papers we have applied multiple scattering techniques to calculate Casimir forces due to scalar fields between different bodies described by delta function potentials. W…

Non-contact gears: II. Casimir torque between concentric corrugated cylinders for the scalar case

Ines Cavero-Pelaez, Kimball A. Milton, Prachi Parashar +1

The Casimir interaction between two concentric corrugated cylinders provides the mechanism for non-contact gears. To this end, we calculate the Casimir torque between two such cyli…

Non-contact gears: I. Next-to-leading order contribution to lateral Casimir force between corrugated parallel plates

Ines Cavero-Pelaez, Kimball A. Milton, Prachi Parashar +1

We calculate the lateral Casimir force between corrugated parallel plates, described by -function potentials, interacting through a scalar field, using the multiple scattering f…
