Surprises in Theoretical Casimir Physics: Quantum Forces in Inhomogeneous Media (Springer Theses)

Surprises in Theoretical Casimir Physics: Quantum Forces in Inhomogeneous Media (Springer Theses)

by WilliamSimpson (Author), WilliamM.R.Simpson (Author)

Synopsis

Despite more than half a century of theoretical work, the Casimir effect is still not as fully understood as some suppose. In particular, he clearly demonstrates that the most sophisticated theories fail when confronted with dielectrics in which the refractive index is not uniform but gradually changes.
