Magnetic Moment of Electrons near Cosmic Strings

High Energy Physics - Theory 2014-01-28 v1

Abstract

We study the effect of background geometry generated by a thin cosmic string on the anomalous magnetic moment of the electron. We find that the magnitude of the quantum correction to the magnetic moment depends on the distance from the cosmic string as well as on the deficit angle.
