Fermionic Casimir Effect in Case of Andreev Reflection

Superconductivity 2011-07-19 v2 Chaotic Dynamics Nuclear Theory

Abstract

We describe the Fermionic Casimir effect in the case of two spherical superfluid scatterers immersed in a normal Fermi system. It is shown that due to the focusing property of Andreev reflection this new Casimir-like energy is significantly enhanced when compared to the case of normal scatterers with specular reflection.
