On the Casimir entropy between "perfect crystals"
- We give a re-interpretation of an 'entropy defect' in the electromagnetic Casimir effect. The electron gas in a perfect crystal is an electromagnetically disordered system whose entropy contains a finite Casimir- like contribution. The Nernst theorem (third law of thermodynamics) is not applicable.
