Casimir Effect For a Scalar Field via Krein Quantization    [PDF]

M. V. Takook, H. Pejhan, M. Tanhayi-Ahari, M. Reza Tanhayi
In this paper, we apply the indefinite metric field (Krein) quantization method to study the Casimir effect for a massless scalar field on a sphere with Dirichlet boundary condition. In this method negative norm (un-physical) states automatically regularize the theory. Having understood that these states are un-physical they are used as only mathematical tools for renormalizing the theory and then one can get rid of them by imposing some proper physical conditions.
