The electric charge of the quantization condition of Dirac's monopole may have any value, we are not obliged to identify it with the electron charge. Consequently the magnetic charge of the monopole is quite arbitrary: Dirac's monopole is a…
We predict the force-free scalar Aharonov-Bohm effect of a Cooper pair box in an electric field at a distance without forming a closed path of the interfering charges. The superposition of different charge states plays a major role in…
A new class of topological mesoscopic phenomena in absence of external magnetic field (meso-nucleo-spinics)is predicted, which is based on combined action of the nonequilibrium nuclear spin population and charge carriers spin-orbit…
Although the Aharonov-Bohm and related effects are familiar in solid state and high energy physics, the nonlocality of these effects has been questioned. Here we show, for the first time, that the Aharonov-Bohm effect has two very different…
Some recent work has attempted to show that the singular solutions which are known to occur in the Dirac description of spin-1/2 Aharonov-Bohm scattering can be eliminated by the inclusion of strongly repulsive potentials inside the flux…
Anholonomies in eigenstates are studied through time-dependent variations of a magnetic flux in an Aharonov-Bohm ring. The anholonomies in the eigenenergy and the expectation values of eigenstates are shown to persist beyond the adiabatic…
The supersymmetric analysis of spinning cosmic string spacetime, involving an electron in magnetic fields, has been conducted. We examined the Dirac system within extended special functions known as exceptional orthogonal polynomials.…
We study the effect of nonzero temperature on the induced electric charge around a Dirac monopole. While at zero temperature the charge is known to be proportional to a CP violating $\theta$ parameter, we find that at high temperature the…
When the magnetic vector potential is expressed in terms of the magnetic field it, is found to be explicitly non-local in space. This gives support to the conclusions of Aharonov et al. in a recent comment, that the Aharonov-Bohm effect may…
By using the spherical coordinates in 3+1 dimensions we study the self-adjointness of the Dirac Hamiltonian in an Aharonov-Bohm gauge field of an infinitely thin magnetic flux tube. It is shown that the angular part of the Dirac Hamiltonian…
In the Dirac theory of the quantum-mechanical interaction of a magnetic monopole and an electric charge, the vector potential is singular from the origin to infinity along certain direction - the so called Dirac string. Imposing the famous…
The Aharonov-Bohm effect is considered by most authors as a quantum effect, but a generally accepted explanation does not seem to be available. The phenomenon is studied here under the assumption that hypothetical electric dipole…
I construct a minimal formalism to describe transport of non separable correlations arising when a superconductor is in contact with several electrodes (being ferromagnetic or normal metal). Transport theory is expressed in terms of…
We study the self-adjoint Pauli operators that can be realized as the square of a self-adjoint Dirac operator and correspond to a magnetic field consisting of a finite number of Aharonov-Bohm solenoids and a regular part, and prove an…
We compute, in topological terms, the spectral flow of an arbitrary family of self-adjoint Dirac type operators with classical (local) boundary conditions on a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary under the assumption that the initial…
This is an analytical study of magnetic fields effects on the conductance, the shot noise power, and the third charge-transfer cumulant for Aharonov-Bohm rings and Corbino disks in graphene. The two distinct physical mechanisms lead to very…
We consider different schemes for the electrodynamic Aharonov-Bohm (AB) effect introduced in Ref. [Phys. Rev. A $\mathbf{108}$, 062218 (2023)], exploring the phenomenon to enhance the understanding of its topological nature in spacetime. In…
We show that the connection responsible for any abelian or non abelian Aharonov-Bohm effect with $n$ parallel ``magnetic'' flux lines in $\R^3$, lies in a trivial $G$-principal bundle $P\to M$, i.e. $P$ is isomorphic to the product $M\times…
We study a field--theoretical analogue of the Aharonov--Bohm effect in the Abelian Higgs Model: the corresponding topological interaction is proportional to the linking number of the Abrikosov--Nielsen--Olesen string world sheets and the…
The Aharonov-Bohm effect is a fundamental topological phenomenon with a wide range of applications. It consists of a charge encircling a region with a magnetic flux in a superposition of wave packets having their relative phase affected by…
