The possibilities to accelerate vortex electrons with orbital angular momentum (OAM) to relativistic energies and to produce vortex ions, protons, and other charged particles crucially depend on whether the OAM is conserved during the…
Quantizing the motion of particles on a Riemannian manifold in the presence of a magnetic field poses the problems of existence and uniqueness of quantizations. Both of them are settled since the early days of geometric quantization but…

In their seminal paper Aharonov and Bohm (1959) claimed that electromagnetic fields can act at a distance on charged particles even if they are identically zero in the region of space where the particles propagate. They proposed two…

Quantum mechanics of bending of a nonrelativistic monoenergetic charged particle beam by a dipole magnet is studied in the paraxial approximation. The transfer map for the position and momentum components of a particle of the beam between…
Application of the Bohr-Wilson-Sommerfeld quantization condition to a charged particle in a uniform magnetic field requires knowledge of the canonical momentum of such a particle, which in turn requires students to know about the vector…
