We derive the expressions for the Casimir energy and discuss the nature of Casimir force. We show analytically the extra-dimension corrections to the standard Casimir effect to put forward a new method of exploring the existence of extra dimensions of the Universe.展开更多

The equation of motion of cosmic string loops in this spacetime is derived. Having solved the equation numerically, we investigate the dependence of the loop evolution on the values of a, related to the Gauss-Bonnet coupling. In the Gauss-Bonnet-de Sitter spacetimes with different dimensionality there exists a special parameter αm. In the environment with α 〉 αm, all the cosmic string loops will collapse to form black holes. Within the region 0 〈 α 〈 αm, the stronger Gauss-Bonnet effect will lead more cosmic string loops, including smaller ones, to form black holes. The larger the value of a is, the smaller the special values that exist, and only the cosmic string loops with initial radius larger than the special values can expand and evolve instead of becoming black holes.展开更多
