Isoelectronic determination of the thermal Casimir force

G. Bimonte, D. Lopez, R. S. Decca

Differential force measurements between spheres coated with either nickel or gold and rotating disks with periodic distributions of nickel and gold are reported. The rotating sampl…

Thermodynamic evidence for the Bose glass transition in twinned YBaCuO crystals

D. J. Pérez-Morelo, E. Osquiguil, A. B. Kolton +4

We used a micromechanical torsional oscillator to measure the magnetic response of a twinned YBaCuO single crystal disk near the Bose glass transition. We observe a…

Stronger limits on hypothetical Yukawa interactions in the 40--8000 nm range

Y. -J. Chen, W. K. Tham, D. E. Krause +3

We report the results of new differential force measurements between a test mass and rotating source masses of gold and silicon to search for forces beyond Newtonian gravity at sho…

A quasi-analytical modal approach for computing Casimir interactions in periodic nanostructures

F. Intravaia, P. S. Davids, R. S. Decca +3

We present an almost fully analytical technique for computing Casimir interactions between periodic lamellar gratings based on a modal approach. Our method improves on previous wor…

Strong Casimir force reduction through metallic surface nanostructuring

Francesco Intravaia, Stephan Koev, Il Woong Jung +6

The Casimir force between bodies in vacuum can be understood as arising from their interaction with an infinite number of fluctuating electromagnetic quantum vacuum modes, resultin…

Why Screening Effects Do Not Influence the Casimir Force

V. M. Mostepanenko, R. S. Decca, E. Fischbach +5

The Lifshitz theory of dispersion forces leads to thermodynamic and experimental inconsistencies when the role of drifting charge carriers is included in the model of the dielectri…
