In the Curci-Ferrari model, the non-Abelian Casimir energy between magnetic-conductor plates is 3/2 times that for electric-conductor plates, and the massless limit is discontinuous (vDVZ-like), with the same pattern in 2+1D with factor 2.

abstract
In these lectures, we review the status of the Curci-Ferrari model as a phenomenological approach to Landau gauge-fixed YM theories in the infrared. More precisely, after discussing some of the general properties of the model, we explain in full detail the evaluation of the one-loop two-point correlators that allowed for a successful comparison to the corresponding Landau-gauge lattice data. We also review the renormalization group flow of the model which controls its fate at high and low momentum scales.

Non-Abelian Casimir energy in the Curci-Ferrari model through a functional approach
In the Curci-Ferrari model, the non-Abelian Casimir energy between magnetic-conductor plates is 3/2 times that for electric-conductor plates, and the massless limit is discontinuous (vDVZ-like), with the same pattern in 2+1D with factor 2.
