I have read in popular literature that it is hypothesized that one could shoot particles through a pair of plates which are under the correct conditions to produce the Casimir effect, and that these particles would exit as exotic particles. Being a popular account, it was as low on detail as on trustworthiness, but I presume the author got the idea somewhere. So, (a) is that a serious hypothesis, and if so (b) in what way would the particles be exotic, and why?
Thanks.
Thanks.
