The Aharonov-Bohm (AB) effect highlights the fundamental role of electromagnetic potentials in quantum mechanics, manifesting as a phase shift for a charged particle in field-free regions. While well-established for static magnetic fluxes,…
We consider a nonrelativistic quantum charged particle moving on a plane under the influence of a uniform magnetic field and driven by a periodically time-dependent Aharonov-Bohm flux. We observe an acceleration effect in the case when the…
We demonstrate theoretically and experimentally a new electromagnetic lensing concept using the magnetic vector potential - in a region free of classical electromagnetic fields - via the Aharonov-Bohm effect. This toroid-shaped lens with…
We present the extended electrodynamics in the presence of the axion and dark photon. We derive the extended versions of Maxwell's equations and dark Maxwell's equations (for both massive and massless dark photons) as well as the wave…
After some brief personal recollections about V.N.Gribov, I demonstrate that his results and ideas on complex angular momenta may be applied in unfamiliar directions. As an example, it is shown, that any strong interaction amplitude,…
The motion of a system of particles under electromagnetic interaction is considered. Under the assumption that the force acting on an electric charge is given by the sum of the electromagnetic fields produced by any other charged particles…
In this paper it is presented a manifestly covariant formulation of the Aharonov-Bohm (AB) phase difference for the magnetic AB effect . This covariant AB phase is written in terms of the Faraday 2-form F and using the decomposition of F in…
The quantum dynamics of quasi-one-dimensional ring with varying electron filling factor is investigated in presence of external electric field. The system is modeled within Hubbard Hamiltonian with attractive Coulomb correlation, which…
We study different types of spacetime singularities which emerge in the context of disformal electrodynamics. The latter is characterized by transformations of the background metric which preserve regular (non-null) solutions of Maxwell…
Beginning with the basic notions of quantum theory, impossibility of `trajectory' description for particles that ensues from uncertainty principle is discussed. Why the observed tracks in bubble/cloud chambers are not really the…
I argue that the metaphysical import of the Aharonov-Bohm effect has been overstated: correctly understood, it does not require either rejection of gauge invariance or any novel form of nonlocality. The conclusion that it does require one…
Electromagnetic potentials allow for an alternative description of the Maxwell field, the electric and magnetic components of which emerge as gradients of the vector and the scalar potential. We provide a general relativistic analysis of…
This paper addresses the scattering of a beam of charged particles by an infinitely long magnetic string in the context of the hydrodynamical approach to quantum mechanics. The scattering is qualitatively analyzed by two approaches. In the…
We considered the electromagnetic field of a charge moving with a constant acceleration along an axis. We found that this field obtained from the Li\'enard-Wiechert potentials does not satisfy Maxwell equations if one considers exclusively…
Recent experiments with the Aharonov-Bohm geometry have shown that, in addition to an electron-interference fringe shift, there is also a lateral displacement of the electron diffraction envelope. In this paper, we derive a displacement…
The electric Aharonov-Bohm effect is a special case of the general Ab effect. However, when inserting a gravitational potential in the place of the time dependent potential, a different understanding of the phase shift could be gained. The…
We suppose that the covariance of Lagrangians always taking place results in a distortion of any electric and magnetic field by a pseudoscalar field of dark matter axions and axion-like particles. As a result, electric and magnetic fields…
It is frequently stated that the electromagnetic vector potential acquires a fundamental role in quantum physics, whereas classically it only represents a convenient, but by no means necessary, way of representing the electromagnetic field.…
Dynamical extra dimensions break the conformal invariance of Maxwell's equations in four dimensions. A higher dimensional background with $n$ contracting extra dimensions and four expanding dimensions is matched to an effectively four…
The correlations of the electrons field-emitted from a superconductor are fully analyzed, both in space and time. It is proposed that a coincidence experiment would reveal a positive correlation between the electrons emitted in opposite…
