Hey, can anyone piont me to some online resources/books that will help me understand the Casimir effect. Thank you!

I assume you Googled it, read some of the links and found them wanting. Would you like to tell us what you've read and where each is lacking? The alternative is to have us guess.
 
Could you give an explanation?

I need to gather more information on the Casimir effect. I have googled it and read some papers on it, but I still want more information on it. I ask for a source that maybe I am unaware of and it offers a lucid explanation, instead you refer me to a blog that explains how to ask for help.
 
Also is there any relation between the dark photon and Casimir effect? I googled this and couldn't find anything on the subject.
 
Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. Towards the end of the first lecture for the Qiskit Global Summer School 2025, Foundations of Quantum Mechanics, Olivia Lanes (Global Lead, Content and Education IBM) stated...

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
