Confined quantum fields under the influence of a uniform magnetic field
E. Elizalde, F. C. Santos, A. C. Tort
We investigate the influence of a uniform magnetic field on the zero-point energy of charged fields of two types, namely, a massive charged scalar field under Dirichlet boundary co…
The Casimir energy of a massive fermionic field confined in a d+1 dimensional slab-bag
E. Elizalde, F. C. Santos, A. C. Tort
We evaluate the fermionic Casimir effect associated with a massive fermion confined within a planar (d+1) dimensional slab-bag, on which MIT bag model boundary conditions of standa…
The thermal energy of a scalar field in a one-dimensional compact space
E. Elizalde, A. C. Tort
We discuss some controverted aspects of the evaluation of the thermal energy of a scalar field in a one-dimensional compact space. The calculations are carried out using a generali…
The Casimir energy of a massive fermion field revisited
F. C. Santos, A. C. Tort
We introduce a general, simple and effective method of evaluating the zero point energy of a quantum field under the influence of arbitrary boundary conditions imposed on the field…
