电磁场的零点涨落在两个完全导电的平行板之间产生吸引力，即卡西米尔力。我们讨论的结构的电磁应力能量张量在有限的温度以及零温度限制的板之间的区域，我们描述了其组件的辐射场的热力学变量的关系。的应力-能量张量的定义，使无限的数量永远不会出现，它是明确计算的帮助下的图像源建设的绿色的功能。有限温度的情况下，涉及到无限的空间图像和无限的温度依赖图像的总和。
The zero-point fluctuations of the electromagnetic field give rise to an attractive force between two perfectly conducting parallel plates, the Casimir force. We discuss the structure of the electromagnetic stress-energy tensor in the region between the plates for finite temperatures as well as for the zero-temperature limit, and we describe the relationship of its components to the thermodynamic variables of the radiation field. The stress-energy tensor is defined so that infinite quantities never appear, and it is explicitly computed with the aid of an image-source construction of the Green's function. The finite-temperature case involves both an infinite set of spatial images and an infinite sum of temperature-dependent images.
