We report the results of an experimental study of an analog of the Aharonov-Bohm (AB) effect achieved with the hydrodynamic pilot-wave system. A walking droplet is confined to an annular cavity that encircles a shielded vortex, but lies…
We model a single-electron ion (hydrogenic atom) as a static, spherically symmetric electrovacuum spacetime in which the nucleus is treated as a timelike line-singularity and the electron is treated as a test particle following Dirac's…
The independence of the Aharonov-Bohm phase shift on particle velocity is one of its defining properties. The classical counterpart to this dispersionless behavior is the absence of forces along the direction of motion of the particle. A…

We solve the one-dimensional Dirac equation by taking into account the possibility of position-dependence in the mass function. We also take the Fermi velocity to act as a local variable and examine the combined effects of the two on the…
