Summary

The Casimir effect arises from the zero-point energy of a quantized field and can exert a measurable force on a conducting plate. It is important in some modern developments in cosmology and elementary particle physics.

The Casimir Effect and Its Applications by V M Mostepanenko

Of value to the general scientific public, this is the first book in the world scientific literature devoted to the Casimir effect. This topic has important applications in the fields of elementary particle physics, statistical physics, quantum field theory, gravitation and cosmology.
The serious enthusiast of the Casimir effect will rejoice at the publication of this book since it contains a wealth of material, some of which is not very widely known..The book has next to no overlap with books devoted to the Casimir effect in condensed matter physics, like Krech's book ("The Casimir Effect in Critical Systems") or Langbein's book ("Van der Waals Attraction").
