چکیده
In this paper we calculate the Casimir energy for spherical shell with massless self-interacting scalar filed which satisfying Dirichlet boundary conditions on the shell. Using zeta function regularization and heat kernel coefficients we obtain the divergent contributions inside and outside of Casimir energy. The effect of self-interacting term is similar with existing of mass for filed. In this case some divergent part arises. Using the renormalization procedure of bag model we can cancel these divergent parts.

Casimir effects of nano objects in fluctuating scalar and electromagnetic fields: Thermodynamic investigating
Casimir entropy is an important aspect of casimir effect and at the nanoscale is visible. In this paper, we employ the path integral method to obtain a general relation for casimir entropy and internal energy of arbitrary shaped objects in the presence of two, three and four dimension scalar fields and the electromagnetic field. For this purpose, using Lagrangian and based on a perturb...
متن کاملNUMERICAL ANALYSIS OF THE CASIMIR EFFECT DUE TO A SCALAR FIELD
In this paper, we study the Casimir effect of a scalar field with Dirichlet boundary condition in some certain topologies. By numerical analysis we show that Casimir energy is a shape-dependent quantity. We also obtain the phase transition in different topologies in which the Casimir force changes from attractive to repulsive or vice versa. eararqr
متن کاملLocal Casimir Energies for a Thin Spherical Shell
Abstract The local Casimir energy density for a massless scalar field associated with step-function potentials in a 3 + 1 dimensional spherical geometry is considered. The potential is chosen to be zero except in a shell of thickness δ, where it has height h, with the constraint hδ = 1. In the limit of zero thickness, an ideal δ-function shell is recovered. The behavior of the energy density as...
متن کاملKaluza-Klein Pistons with non-Commutative Extra Dimensions
We calculate the scalar Casimir energy and Casimir force for a R×N Kaluza-Klein piston setup in which the extra dimensional space N contains a non-commutative 2sphere, SFZ . The cases to be studied are T d × SFZ and SFZ respectively as extra dimensional spaces, with T d the d dimensional commutative torus. The validity of the results and the regularization that the piston setup offers are exami...
متن کاملCasimir effect for a spherical shell in de Sitter spacetime with signature change
The Casimir stress on a spherical shell in de Sitter signature changing background for massless scalar field satisfying Dirichlet boundary conditions on the shell is calculated. The Casimir stress is calculated for inside and outside of the shell with different backgrounds corresponding to different metric signatures and cosmological constants. An important contribution appears due to signature...
