Revisiting vacuum energy in compact spacetimes
We revisit the calculation of vacuum energy density in compact spacetimes. For the general case of k compact spatial dimensions in p+k dimensional Minkowski spacetime, we calculate the Casimir force on a piston placed in the presence of external electromagnetic fields. We observe that while the pres...
