Presence of the negative pressure in the quantum vacuum
Abstract
We investigate the microscopic origin of the negative pressure produced by the constant energy density of the vacuum. It is shown that the zero-point photons in the quantum vacuum could generate the pressures of this type in confined spaces for the photon field. We find in particular that an anomalous radiation plays a role in the occurrence of a negative pressure from the quantum vacuum.
