It has been known that when a charged fermion scatters off a monopole, the fermion in the $s$-wave component must flip its chirality, i.e., fermion number violation must happen. This fact has led to a puzzle; if there are two or more…
The quantum-mechanical problems of electron scattering by an infinitely thin solenoid and by a half of an infinitely thin solenoid are examined from the viewpoint of constructing a self-adjoint Hamiltonian. It is demonstrated that in both…
