On the accuracy of the PFA: Analogies between casimir and electrostatic forces

Mostrar todas las versiones(3)

We present an overview of the validity of the Proximity Force Approximation (PFA) in the calculation of Casimir forces between perfect conductors for different geometries, with particular emphasis for the configuration of a cylinder in front of a plane. In all cases we compare the exact numerical re...
