Bosonic Casimir effect in external magnetic field

High Energy Physics - Theory 2008-11-26 v2

Abstract

We compute the influence of an external magnetic field on the Casimir energy of a massive charged scalar field confined between two parallel infinite plates. For this case the obtained result shows that the magnetic field inhibits the Casimir effect.
