    "abstract": "We investigate the possibility to trap ultracold atoms near the outside of a\nmetallic carbon nanotube (CN) which we imagine to use as a miniaturized\ncurrent-carrying wire. We calculate atomic spin flip lifetimes and compare the\nstrength of the Casimir-Polder potential with the magnetic trapping potential.\nOur analysis indicates that the Casimir-Polder force is the dominant loss\nmechanism and we compute the minimum distance to the carbon nanotube at which\nan atom can be trapped.",
