I have a slight issue with this derivation.
Firstly, displacing one plate by dx requires work dW=-Fdx where F is the internal force between the plates resolved in the direction of x. I.e F=-dW/dx.
If I do work on the capacitor W, this plus the energy provided by the battery to keep the...
I'm a little confused between two approaches to this problem:
First approach (the one that makes sense to me):

Does Casimir plates prevent photon existence only perpendicular to them?
I mean, Casimir attraction arises from the fact that the plates prevent some wavelenghts of photons to exist in between them, so an imbalance arises and pushes the plates together, right?
But what about photons in other...
