Saying there is infinite energy in zero point energy and infinite virtual particles in vacuum energy, is this a real or just a mathematical thing?
Interesting. Can you tell me more about the Casimir effect?
Certainly. The Casimir effect is a phenomenon where two parallel uncharged metal plates placed in a vacuum attract each other, due to the presence of virtual particles in the vacuum. It is believed that these virtual particles create a fluctuating electromagnetic field, and the wavelengths of the photons in this field are restricted by the distance between the plates, which causes a pressure imbalance that attracts the plates towards each other.
