We calculate modifications to the scalar Casimir force between two parallel plates due to space-time noncommutativity. We devise a heuristic approach to overcome the difficulties of describing boundaries in noncommutative theories and predict that boundary corrections are of the same order as noncommutative volume corrections. Further, both corrections have the form of more conventional finite surface effects.

Abstract
We calculate modifications to the scalar Casimir force between two parallel plates due to space-time noncommutativity. We devise a heuristic approach to overcome the difficulties of describing boundaries in noncommutative theories and predict that boundary corrections are of the same order as noncommutative volume corrections. Further, both corrections have the form of more conventional finite surface effects.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
