Abstract
Using standard techniques of quantum Field Theory we determine the fluctuations of the components of the energy-momentum tensor in the presence of plates. For this aim we derive the Wightman functions of the eletromagnetic field using canonical quantization. For the two-plate system the correlation functions contain an infinite set of poles corresponding to events connected by n-times reflected light-signals. Taking into account the conditions of the measuring process the fluctuations of the Casimir pressure depend critically on the chosen quantization procedure which itself reflects the model of the plates.
