• Abstract: We theoretically investigate the impact of the anomalous magnetic moment (AMM) of Dirac fermions on the fermionic Casimir effect under magnetic fields. We formulate it as an extension of the well-known Lifshitz formula. From our formula, we find that the AMM increases the fermionic Casimir energy. In particular, when the AMM is large enough, the Casimir energy is significantly enhanced by the gapless behavior of the lowest Landau level. We also quantitatively estimate the Casimir energy from electron, muon, and constituent quark fields under magnetic fields and propose possible phenomena at finite temperature and fermion density.

  We study the effect of the Lorentz symmetry breaking on the Casimir energy of charged Dirac in the presence of a uniform magnetic field. We investigate two cases of the direction of violation, namely, time-like and space-like vector cases. We discuss how the Lorentz violation and the magnetic field affect the structure of the Casimir energy and its pressure.

  Casimir forces, related to London-van der Waals forces, arise if the spectrum of electromagnetic fluctuations is restricted by boundaries. We experimentally investigate the influence of self-assembled molecular bio and organic thin films on the Casimir force between a plate and a sphere. We find that molecular thin films, despite being a mere few nanometers thick, reduce the Casimir force by up to 14%.

  The Casimir effect is a quantum phenomenon induced by the zero-point energy of relativistic fields confined in a finite-size system. We show the typical properties of the Casimir effect for relativistic electron fields in Dirac/Weyl semimetals. We find an oscillation of the Casimir energy as a function of the thickness of the thin film, which stems from the existence of Dirac/Weyl nodes in momentum space.
