We study the effect of a time-varying solenoidal vector potential for a quantum particle confined to a ring. The setup appears to be a time-varying version of the Aharonov-Bohm effect, but since the particle moves in the presence of fields,…

We consider the elastic scattering and bound states of charged quantum particles moving in the Aharonov-Bohm and an attractive $\rho^{-2}$ potential in a partial wave approach. Radial solutions of the stationary Schr\"{o}dinger equation are…

The analysis of a previous paper, in which it was shown that the energy for the Aharonov-Bohm effect could be traced to the interaction energy between the magnetic field of the electron and the background magnetic field, is extended to…

We study the zero-temperature many-body properties of twisted bilayer graphene with a twist angle equal to the so-called `first magic angle'. The system low-energy single-electron spectrum consists of four (eight, if spin label is…

Since the Aharonov-Bohm effect is the purely quantum effect that has no analogues in classical physics, its persistence in the quasiclassical limit seems to be hardly possible. Nevertheless, we show that the scattering Aharonov-Bohm effect…

We show how the Aharonov-Bohm flux (AB) $\phi_i$ and the dual gaps $(\Delta_1, \Delta_2)$ can affect the electron scattering in graphene quantum dots (GQDs) of radius $r_0$ in the presence of an electrostatic potential $V$. After obtaining…

Magnetic Aharonov-Bohm effect (AB effect) was studied in hundreds of papers starting with the seminal paper of Aharonov and Bohm [AB] published in 1959. We give a new proof of the magnetic Aharonov-Bohm effect without using the scattering…

The electric Aharonov-Bohm effect is a special case of the general Ab effect. However, when inserting a gravitational potential in the place of the time dependent potential, a different understanding of the phase shift could be gained. The…

We add a confining potential to the Aharonov-Bohm model resulting in no contact of the particle with the solenoid (border); this is characterized by a unique self-adjoint extension of the initial Hamiltonian operator. It is shown that the…

We investigate the behavior of the quantized Hall conductivity in a two-dimensional quantum system under rotating effects, a uniform magnetic field, and an Aharonov-Bohm (AB) flux tube. By varying the angular velocity and the AB flux, we…
