If dark matter (DM) has non-zero direct or transition, electric or magnetic dipole moment then it can scatter nucleons electromagnetically in direct detection experiments. Using the results from experiments like XENON, CDMS, DAMA and COGENT…
Solutions to the Dirac equation are constructed for a massless charged fermion in Coulomb and Aharonov--Bohm potentials in 2+1 dimensions. The Dirac Hamiltonian on this background is singular and needs a one-parameter self-adjoint…
