  • The Casimir effect is a quantum phenomenon in which two materials, when placed close together, can be attracted or repelled by quantum fluctuations.
  • Researchers successfully manipulated this effect by reversing the transition of attractive to repulsive using a ferrofluid as intermediate medium.
  • In 1948, Dutch physicist Hendrik Casimir developed an ingenious experiment to witness the invisible wonders of quantum mechanics.
