Abstract
We study the simultaneous influence of boundary conditions and externa l fields on quantum fluctuations by considering vacuum zero-point ener gies for quantum fields in the presence of a magnetic fluxon confined by a bag, circular and spherical for bosons and circular for fermions. The Casimir effect is calculated in a generalized cut-off regularizat ion after applying zeta-function techniques to eigenmode sums and usin g recent techniques about Bessel zeta functions at negative arguments.
