Abstract

We proceed with the study of the Casimir force for parallel plates at finite temperature in the Horava-Lifshitz (HL) theory. We find that the HL exponent can not be chosen as an integer, or the Casimir energy will be a constant and further the Casimir force between two parallel plates will vanish. The higher temperature makes the attractive Casimir force weaker, which is consistent with the original consequence confirmed theoretically and experimentally. We can select the HL factor adequately to lead the thermally revised Casimir force to be similar to the standard results for the parallel plates.
