Abstract
We study the Casimir effect for a 3-d system of ideal Bose gas in a slab geometry with Dirichlet boundary condition. We calculate the temperature() dependence of the Casimir force below and above the Bose-Einstein condensation temperature(). At the Casimir force vanishes as . For it weakly depends on temperature. For it vanishes exponentially. At finite temperatures this force for thermalized photons in between two plates has a classical expression which is independent of . At finite temperatures the Casimir force for our system depends on .
