The Casimir effect for rectangular boxes has been studied for several decades. But there are still some points unclear. Recently, there are new developments related to this topic, including the demonstration of the equivalence of the…

This paper has been withdrawn by the authors because the paper is largely revised and improved.

We establish strict upper limits for the Casimir interaction between multilayered structures of arbitrary dielectric or diamagnetic materials. We discuss the appearance of different power laws due to frequency-dependent material constants.…

We consider the ground state energy of the electromagnetic field in a piston geometry. In the idealised case, where the piston and the walls of the chamber are taken as perfect mirrors, the Casimir pressure on the piston is finite and…

Recently [J. Haro and E. Elizalde, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 97}, 130401 (2006)], a Hamiltonian formulation has been introduced in order to address some longstanding severe problems associated with the physical description of the dynamical…

This paper has been withdrawn by the author due to inconsistency of the considered working hypothesis. The consistent treatment is presented in the last publications of the author.

This paper has been withdrawn by the author. It will be replaced, substantially modified, by sections of the author's completed PhD thesis.

The Casimir effect arises when long-ranged fluctuations are geometrically confined between two surfaces, leading to a macroscopic force. Traditionally, these forces have been observed in quantum systems and near critical points in classical…

Both theoretical interest and practical significance attach to the sign and strength of Casimir forces. A famous, discouraging no-go theorem states that "The Casimir force between two bodies with reflection symmetry is always attractive."…

This submission has been withdrawn by the authors because it is a duplicate of arXiv:hep-ph/0611336. It was due to a technical submission error by the authors.

A brief review of the recent experimental verifications of the Casimir force between extended bodies is presented. With modern techniques, it now appears feasible to test the force law with 1% precision; I will address the issues relating…

This paper has been withdrawn due to an error, and no further revisions will be made.

Rectangular cavities are solvable models that nevertheless touch on many of the controversial or mysterious aspects of the vacuum energy of quantum fields. This paper is a thorough study of the two-dimensional scalar field in a rectangle by…

This paper has been withdrawn due to some errors in the reported discussion, and needs a thorough revision
