Zeta function method and repulsive Casimir forces for an unusual pair of plates at finite temperature

Quantum Physics 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

We apply the generalized zeta function method to compute the Casimir energy and pressure between an unusual pair of parallel plates at finite temperature, namely: a perfectly conducting plate and an infinitely permeable one. The high and low temperature limits of these quantities are discussed; relationships between high and low temperature limits are estabkished by means of a modified version of the temperature inversion symmetry.
