We study the dispersive behaviors of two-particles Schr\"odinger and wave equations in the Aharonov-Bohm field. In particular, we prove the Strichartz estimates for Schr\"odinger and wave equations in this setting. The key point is to…
We perform a perturbative analysis of the Aharonov-Bohm problem to one loop in a field-theoretic formulation, and show that contact interactions are necessary for renormalizability. In general, the classical scale invariance of this problem…
By using the complex angular momentum method, we provide a semiclassical analysis of electron scattering by a magnetic vortex of Aharonov-Bohm-type. Regge poles of the $S$-matrix are associated with surface waves orbiting around the vortex…
The scattering of electrons with inhomogeneities produces modulations in the local density of states of a metal. We show that electron interference contributions to these modulations are affected by the magnetic field via the Aharonov-Bohm…
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…
We apply the coherent state approach to study Aharonov-Bohm effect in the field theory context. We verify that, contrarily to the commutative result, the scattering amplitude is ultraviolet finite. However, we have logarithmic singularities…
Rutherford scattering formula plays an important role in plasma classical transport. It is urgent to need a magnetized Rutherford scattering formula since the magnetic field increases significantly in different fusion areas (e.g. tokamak…

In some textbooks on quantum mechanics, the description of flux quantization in a superconductor ring based on the Aharonov-Bohm effect may lead some readers to a (wrong) conclusion that flux quantization occurs as well for a long solenoid…
The flux as measured by the Josephson effect in a SQUID-like configuration with a ferromagnetic core inserted into its center, is shown to be sensitive to the vector potential arising from the central ferromagnetic core, even when the core…
The Aharonov-Bohm effect is investigated in two-dimensional, single-terminal quantum rings in magnetic fields by using time-dependent density-functional theory. We find multiple transport loops leading to the oscillation periods of h/(en),…
The magnetic Aharonov-Bohm (A-B) effect occurs when a point charge interacts with a line of magnetic flux, while its dual, the Aharonov-Casher (A-C) effect, occurs when a magnetic moment interacts with a line of charge. For the two…
In this paper we consider the Schr\"odinger operator in ${\mathbb R}^3$ with a long-range magnetic potential associated to a magnetic field supported inside a torus ${\mathbb{T}}$. Using the scheme of smooth perturbations we construct…
The model of a ring threaded by the Aharonov-Bohm flux underlies our understanding of a coupling between gauge potentials and matter. The typical formulation of the model is based upon a single particle picture, and should be extended when…
The Aharonov-Bohm effect allows one to demonstrate the physical meaningfulness of magnetic vector potential by passing the current in zero magnetic field regions. In the standard (a {\em two-slit-like}) setup a conducting ring is pierced by…
The Aharonov-Bohm effect is a quantum mechanical phenomenon that demonstrates how potentials can have observable effects even when the classical fields associated with those potentials are absent. Initially proposed for electromagnetic…
Previous results on the scattering of surface waves by vertical vorticity on shallow water are generalized to the case of dispersive water waves. Dispersion effects are treated perturbatively around the shallow water limit, to first order…
In this paper, it is emphasized that the dynamical cause for the A-B effect is the superimposed energy between the magnetic field produced by the moving charges and that in the solenoid, instead of the existence of the vector potential. If…
Aharonov-Bohm Physics at the two-particle level is investigated for distinguishable interacting charged particles through the exact solution of a toy model with confined states. The effect of the inaccessible magnetic flux is distributed…
