Resumen:
   The Casimir force is the ultimate background in ongoing searches for extragravitational forces in themicrometer range. Eccentric cylinders offer favorable experimental conditions for such measurements as spu-rious gravitational and electrostatic effects can be minimized. Here we report on the evaluation of the exactCasimir interaction between perfectly conducting eccentric cylinders using a mode summation technique, andstudy different limiting cases of relevance for Casimir force measurements, with potential implications for theunderstanding of mechanical properties of nanotubes.
