Abstract
Some of the most interesting phenomena that arise from the developments of the modern physics are surely vacuum fluctuations. They appear in different branches of physics, such as Quantum Field Theory, Cosmology, Condensed Matter Physics, Atomic and Molecular Physics, and also in Mathematical Physics.
One of the most important of these vacuum fluctuations, sometimes called "zero-point energy", as well as one of the easiest quantum effect to detect, is the so-called Casimir effect.
The purposes of this thesis are:
- To propose a simple retarded approach for dynamical Casimir effect, thus a description of this vacuum effect when we have moving boundaries.
- To describe the behaviour of the force acting on a boundary, due to its self-interaction with the vacuum.
