TL;DR
This paper investigates how the Casimir force is affected by the presence of compactified universal extra dimensions, deriving a new power law and constraining the size of these dimensions based on experimental data.
Contribution
It introduces a new power law for the Casimir force considering universal extra dimensions and provides bounds on their size from experimental comparisons.
Findings
Casimir force differs with extra dimensions
Derived a new power law for the force
Constrained extra dimension size to R < 10 nm
Abstract
The Casimir force in a system consisting of two parallel conducting plates in the presence of compactified universal extra dimensions (UXD) is analyzed. The Casimir force with UXDs differs from the force obtained without extra dimensions. A new power law for the Casimir force is derived. By comparison to experimental data the size R of the universal extra dimensions can be restricted to R < 10 nm for one extra dimension.
