Casimir self-stress in a dielectric sphere
Yael Avni, Ulf Leonhardt
The dielectric sphere has been an important test case for understanding and calculating the vacuum force of a dielectric body onto itself. Here we develop a method for computing th…

Casimir stress in materials: hard divergency at soft walls
Itay Griniasty, Ulf Leonhardt
The Casimir force between macroscopic bodies is well understood, but not the Casimir stress inside bodies. Suppose empty space or a uniform medium meets a soft wall where the refra…

Casimir stress inside planar materials
Itay Griniasty, Ulf Leonhardt
Current theory is able to predict the Casimir force between macroscopic bodies with an accuracy only limited by the knowledge of the material parameters. Yet surprisingly after alm…
