Repulsive and attractive Casimir forces in a glide-symmetric geometry
We describe a three-dimensional geometry in which both attractive and repulsive Casimir forces arise using ordinary metallic materials, as computed via an exact numerical method no uncontrolled approximations . The geometry consists of a zipperlike, glide-symmetric structure formed of interleaved metal brackets attached to parallel plates—because of the interleaving pattern, a net repulsive for...
متن کاملNontouching nanoparticle diclusters bound by repulsive and attractive Casimir forces.
We present a scheme for obtaining stable Casimir suspension of dielectric nontouching objects immersed in a fluid, validated here in various geometries consisting of ethanol-separated dielectric spheres and semi-infinite slabs. Stability is induced by the dispersion properties of real dielectric (monolithic) materials. A consequence of this effect is the possibility of stable configurations (cl...
متن کاملFrom numbers to Numerals and Vice Versa
Universally used decimal representations, such as 5; 200; 856763; 189200000 are rendered (written, pronounced) differently in different languages. The number 5 is tllus five in English, fern in Swedish, cinq in French, ketsmala in Koyukon, biyar in Hausa and nga: in Burmese. Numbers can furthermore be written differently in different mathematical systems. The number 5 is written V in the Roman ...
متن کامل- Function Method for Repulsive Casimir Forces
Since Casimir's paper [1] on the attraction of two neutral parallel (perfectly) conducting plates due to the vacuum uctuations of the electromagnetic eld, a considerable amount of work has been done on this subject, varying from the application of alternative techniques to the exploration of new geometries and theories. Excellent reviews as well as a large list of relevant references on this su...
متن کاملAttractive Casimir forces in a closed geometry.
We study the Casimir force acting on a conducting piston with arbitrary cross section. We find the exact solution for a rectangular cross section and the first three terms in the asymptotic expansion for small height to width ratio when the cross section is arbitrary. Though weakened by the presence of the walls, the Casimir force turns out to be always attractive. Claims of repulsive Casimir f...
