    • Feynman in his analysis was not concerned with Casimir effects. Furthermore, having assumed that only one atom was enclosed in the volume V, he took (Formula presented) to be arbitrarily small; that restriction will not be imposed here

    • In Ref. 2, a formal expression was obtained for the sum of the Casimir and Lamb energies; the generalized argument theorem of N.A. van Kampen, B.R.A. Nijboer, and K. Schramm [Phys. Lett. 26A, 307 (1968)] was the starting point. While formally nice, it involved a complicated analysis.

    • The presence of (Formula presented) where (Formula presented) is the group velocity, is not surprising. Indeed, the definition of the energy density u for (Formula presented) is arrived at by considering the continuity equation, (Formula presented), where (Formula presented) is the Poynting vector, which involves the flow of energy. See, for example, Ref
