Hi,
I'm working on a PhD and have finished all my courses and need to think of a dissertation.
I want my work to involve the casimir affect - something I find fascinating, but I also want to have something to do with the theory group at my school which is interested in string theory and cosmology.
The 3 areas of relevance I have identified are:
1) casimir effect as method to stabilize compact extra dims.
2) CE and relations to inflation.
3) CE and relations to dark energy.
I'm just reading papers at the moment but don't really have much direction other than the above 3.
If anyone has a little more experience and interest in this and could suggest some 'do-able' problems in this field related to 1,2,3 above then please leave a post!
