相关论文: The Aharonov-Casher effect
We provide an overview of basic concepts, tools, and results of quantum field theoretical scattering theory. This article is prepared for the second edition of the Encyclopedia of Mathematical Physics, edited by M. Bojowald and R.J. Szabo,…
The independence of the Aharonov-Bohm phase shift on particle velocity is one of its defining properties. The classical counterpart to this dispersionless behavior is the absence of forces along the direction of motion of the particle. A…
The Aharonov-Bohm effect is the prime example of a zero-field-strength configuration where a non-trivial vector potential acquires physical significance, a typical quantum mechanical effect. We consider an extension of the traditional A-B…
In their seminal paper Aharonov and Bohm (1959) claimed that electromagnetic fields can act at a distance on charged particles even if they are identically zero in the region of space where the particles propagate. They proposed two…
This thesis develops the theory of effectuses as a categorical axiomatic approach to quantum theory. It provides a comprehensive introduction to effectus theory and reveals its connections with various other topics and approaches.

The matrix-valued Aharonov-Casher phase factor $F_{\text{AC}}$ (related to the c-number Aharonov-Casher phase $\lambda_{\text{AC}}$) plays an important role in the physics of mesoscopic systems in which spin-orbit coupling is relevant. Yet,…
After discussing the peculiarities of quantum systems on noncommutative (NC) spaces with non-trivial topology and the operator representation of the $\star$-product on them, we consider the Aharonov-Bohm and Casimir effects for such spaces.…

The Hawking effect and the Unruh effect are two of the most important predictions in the theoretical physics of the last quarter of the 20th century. In parallel to the theoretical investigations there is great interest in the possibility…
This is an introduction to the theory of decoherence with an emphasis on its microscopic origins and on a dynamic description. The text corresponds to a chapter soon to be published in: A. Buchleitner, C. Viviescas, and M. Tiersch (Eds.),…
This is an "Essay-Review" of a book with the same title, by Jeffrey Bub (Cambridge University Press, 1997).
Plasmas are usually described using classical equations. While this is often a good approximation, where are situations when a quantum description is motivated. In this paper we will include several quantum effects, ranging from particle…
The spectral properties of the Dirac Hamiltonian in the the Aharonov-Bohm potential are discussed. By using the Krein-Friedel formula, the density of states (DOS) for different self-adjoint extensions is calculated. As in the…
A short review paper for the quantum anomalous Hall effect. A substantially extended one is published as Adv. Phys. 64, 227 (2015).
The magnetic field due to the photon rest mass $m_{ph}$ modifies the standard results of the Aharonov-Bohm effect for electrons, and of other recent quantum effects. For the effect involving a coherent superposition of beams of particles…
In this doctoral thesis we provide one of the first theoretical expositions on a quantum effect known as entanglement in time. It can be viewed as an interdependence of quantum systems across time, which is stronger than could ever exist…
This is a theoretical review of the quantum Hall effect observed in quasi-one-dimensional organic conductors such as (TMTSF)2X. It is written for a book "Physics of Organic Superconductors and Conductors" to be published by Springer and…
Conical space emerges inevitably as an outer space of any topological defect of the vortex type. Quantum-mechanical scattering of a nonrelativistic particle by a vortex centred in conical space is considered, and effects of the transverse…
