Abstract

We investigate the analogue effect of the Aharonov-Bohm effect for bound states in two relativistic quantum systems in a spacetime with a space-like dislocation. We assume that the topological defect has an internal magnetic flux. Then, we analyse the interaction of a charged particle with a uniform magnetic field in this topological defect spacetime, and thus, we extend this analysis to the confinement to a hard-wall potential and a linear scalar potential. Later, the interaction of the Klein-Gordon oscillator with a uniform magnetic field is analysed. We first focus on the effects of torsion that stem from the spacetime with a space-like dislocation and the geometric quantum phase. Then, we analyse the effects of torsion and the geometric quantum phase under the presence of a hard-wall potential and a linear scalar potential.
