Exact Casimir-Polder potential between a particle and an ideal metal cylindrical shell and the proximity force approximation
V. B. Bezerra, E. R. Bezerra de Mello, G. L. Klimchitskaya +2
We derive the exact Casimir-Polder potential for a polarizable microparticle inside an ideal metal cylindrical shell using the Green function method. The exact Casimir-Polder poten…

Vacuum polarization by a flat boundary in cosmic string spacetime
E. R. Bezerra de Mello, A. A. Saharian
In this paper we analyze the vacuum expectation values of the field squared and the energy-momentum tensor associated to a massive scalar field in a higher dimensional cosmic strin…
