Standing wave vs Green's function approach to the Casimir force problem    [PDF]

Frédéric Schuller, Renaud Savalle, Michael Neumann-Spallart

After a short recall of our previous standing wave approach to the Casimir force problem, we consider Lifshitz's temperature Green's function method and its virtues from a physical point of view. Using his formula, specialized for perfectly reflecting mirrors, we present a quantitative discussion of the temperature effect on the attractive force.
