Why dynamic Casimir effect does not appear in static gravity field?
Dynamic Casimir effect tells us that a constantly-accelerated mirror should emit radiation due to interaction with vacuum. Following principle of equivalence, a similar mirror placed in static ...

Minimum atomic clearance permitting motion
Suppose you were to build the piston and cylinder in a car engine atom-by-atom. Let's just say carbon, since you can make a lot of different shapes due to it's high valence.
So assuming you make the ...

Regulating the sum in Casimir Force
I am trying to evaluate the Casimir force using a Gaussian regulator (I know there are other much easier ways to do this, but I want to try this!) We then are reduced to evaluating the sum

Could someone transmit a signal with equally-tuned Casimir plates across the quantum field?
It seems, one could exploit the Casimir effect to send messages across arbitrarily-large distances with carefully-tuned Casimir plates.
Obviously, relativity would preclude FTL information transfer, ...

Effect of strength of magnetic field on the height of a levitating superconductor?
Quantum levitation, flux pinning -- basically, when a superconductor floats above a permanent magnet, is really fascinating. But does the strength of the magnetic field influence the superconductor's ...
