Casimir effect in 2+1 Horava gravity
Abstract
We study the Casimir effect of a membrane embedded in 2+1 dimensions flat cone generated by a massive particle located at the origin of the coordinate system. The flat cone is an exact solution of the nonprojectable Horava theory, similar to general relativity. We consider a scalar field satisfying Dirichlet boundary conditions, and regularize the spectrum using the ζ--function technique. In addition, we include the effects of temperature in our analysis. Our results show that the Casimir force depends on three factors: the anisotropic scaling z, the mass of the point particle, and the temperature.
