Spin-orbit interaction produces persistent spin and mass currents in the ring via the Aharonov-Casher effect. The experiment in $^3He-A_1$ phase, in which this effect leads to the excitation of mass and spin supercurrent is proposed.
Persistant current in isolated mesoscopic rings is studied using the continium and tight-binding models of independent electrons. The calculation is performed with disorder and also at finite temperature. In the absence of disorder and at…
