Casimir Force on Real Materials - the Slab and Cavity Geometry
Simen A. Ellingsen, Iver Brevik
We analyse the potential of the geometry of a slab in a planar cavity for the purpose of Casimir force experiments. The force and its dependence on temperature, material properties…
Vanishing Cosmological Constant in Modified Gauss-Bonnet Gravity with Conformal Anomaly
Iver Brevik, John Quiroga Hurtado
We consider dark energy cosmology in a de Sitter universe filled with quantum conformal matter. Our model represents a Gauss-Bonnet model of gravity with contributions from quantum…
Shear Viscosity of Yang-Mills Theory in the Confinement Phase
Iver Brevik, Kazuo Ghoroku
In terms of a simple holographic model, we study the absorption cross section and the shear viscosity of a pure Yang-Mills field at low temperature where the system is in the confi…
Anomaly Induced Effective Action Combined with Generalized Brans-Dicke Theory
Iver Brevik
We consider the anomaly induced effective action in N=4 super Yang-Mills theory in interaction with the Brans-Dicke (BD) field. The generalization of the BD theory so as to permit…
Thermal corrections to the Casimir effect
Iver Brevik, Simen A. Ellingsen, Kimball A. Milton
The Casimir effect, reflecting quantum vacuum fluctuations in the electromagnetic field in a region with material boundaries, has been studied both theoretically and experimentally…
Crossing of the w=-1 Barrier in Two-Fluid Viscous Modified Gravity
Iver Brevik
Singularities in the dark energy late universe are discussed, under the assumption that the Lagrangian contains the Einstein term R plus a modified gravity term of the form R^α, wh…
