Traditionally physicists have tended to regard the Casimir force as another 'given', a function merely of the geometry of the two interacting objects. The case of two metal plates first analysed ...

This restriction, known as the Casimir effect, results in an attractive force between the plates and a region of negative energy. A minuscule amount of Casimir-effect negative energy isn't enough ...

Apart from gravity, the Casimir effect also draws them together, causing noise in the experiment. A thin copper plate can shield this effect, reducing the noise and making the experiment more ...

La force entre ces deux plaques ... Dans cette limite, on obtient : Le premier terme est le terme de Casimir à température nulle, le deuxième est la contribution attractive due au rayonnement du corps ...

My research is on quantum optics and optical forces including the QED Casimir force. I have a B.Sc. in Physics from MIT, received in 2009. I wrote for the Sacramento Bee in 2010 as a AAAS Mass ...

L’effet Casimir, tel que prédit par le physicien néerlandais Hendrik Casimir en 1948, est une force attractive entre deux plaques parallèles conductrices et non chargées [1]. Cet effet, dû aux " ...
