The author appears to have been reading Fran's posts to this forum. I suggest that you put your question to Fran. As I have said in the past, I don't put much faith in the Casimir cavity hypothesis for a very simple reason. The amount of change in the density of space-time in a nm cavity is trivial percentage wise, because it's the long waves being excluded, not the short ones. The Casimir force doesn't become really significant until you reach nuclear dimensions, by which time it approximates the nuclear force (IIRC). In fact I have often wondered if it might actually be the force that binds nuclei together. > >Also Ed Storms had a theory in his penultimate book: > >Storms, Edmund (2007).

I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say that my contributions to this forum were largely responsible for it. Ed can contradict me if he wishes.
