T1 Casimir effect between moving branes
A1 López Maroto, Antonio
AB We consider a supersymmetric model with a single matter supermultiplet in a five-dimensional space-time with orbifold compactification along the fifth dimension. The boundary conditions on the two orbifold planes are chosen in such a way that supersymmetry remains unbroken on the boundaries. We calculate the vacuum energy-momentum tensor in a configuration in which the boundary branes are moving with constant velocity. The results show that the contribution from fermions cancels that of bosons only in the static limit, but in general a velocity-dependent Casimir energy arises between the branes. We relate this effect to the particle production due to the branes motion and finally we discuss some cosmological consequences.
