Of Some Theoretical Significance: Implications of Casimir Effects

Quantum Physics 2018-06-06 v1

Abstract

In his autobiography Casimir barely mentioned the Casimir effect, but remarked that it is "of some theortical significance." We will describe some aspects of Casimir effects that appear to be of particular significance now, more than half a century after Casimir's famous paper.
