dc.descriptionWe present a field-theoretic study of the critical Casimir force of the Ising universality class in a $d$-dimensional ${L_\parallel^{d-1} \times L}$ slab geometry with a finite aspect ratio $ρ= L/L_\parallel$ above, at, and below $T_c$. The result of a perturbation approach at fixed dimension $d=3$ is presented that describes the dependence on the aspect ratio in the range $ρ\gtrsim 1/4$. Our analytic result for the Casimir force scaling function for $ρ= 1/4$ agrees well with recent Monte Carlo data for the three-dimensional Ising model in slab geometry with periodic boundary conditions above, at, and below $T_c$.
