The electromagnetic energy-momentum tensor in the bulk is calculated, together with the surface stress on the walls. A discussion is given on the possibilities for measuring the influence of the medium, via the Casimir-Polder force.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2001-05-26T12:26:50.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "casimir effect", "dielectric wedge", "electromagnetic energy-momentum tensor", "casimir-polder force", "interior region" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 12, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 552438 } } }
