We analyze spin-0 relativistic scattering of charged particles propagating in the exterior, $\Lambda \subset \mathbb{R}^3$, of a compact obstacle $K \subset \mathbb{R}^3$. The connected components of the obstacle are handlebodies. 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 study the scattering of graphene quasiparticles by topological defects, represented by holes, pentagons and heptagons. For the case of holes, we obtain the phase shift and found that at low concentration they appear to be irrelevant for…

We consider the quantum mechanics of a spinless charged particle on a 2-dimensional sphere. When threaded with a magnetic monopole field, this is the well-known Haldane sphere that furnishes a translationally-invariant, incompressible…

We discuss two possible covariant generalizations of the Aharonov-Bohm effect - one expression in terms of the space-time line integral of the four-vector potential and the other expression in terms of the space-time "area" integral of the…

Parity-violating (PV) interactions among quarks in the nucleon induce a PV $\gamma NN$ coupling, or anapole moment (AM). We compute electroweak gauge-independent contributions to the AM through ${\cal O}(1/\lamchis)$ in chiral perturbation…

It has been suggested that the magnetic Aharonov-Bohm effect can be interpreted equally well as being due to a phase shift associated with an electron in an interferometer enclosing a magnetic flux, or as a phase shift associated with the…

We evaluate a zero-point quantum correction to a Belavin-Polyakov soliton in an isotropic 2D ferromagnet. By revising the scattering problem of quasi-particles by a soliton we show that it leads to the Aharonov-Bohm type of scattering,…
