Here it is shown that a radial magnetic field leads to rotation of a Bose condensed exciton cloud due to Aharonov-Bohm effect for an electron and a hole forming an exciton. As in the case of mechanical rotation of superfluids, rotation is…

A spin-polarizing electron beam splitter is described which relies on an arrangement of linearly polarized laser waves of nonrelativistic intensity. An incident electron beam is first coherently scattered off a bichromatic laser field,…
