The Aharonov–Bohm effect in scattering of short-wavelength particles

Yu. A. Sitenko, N.D. Vlasii

Quantum-mechanical scattering of nonrelativistic charged particles by a magnetic vortex of nonzero transverse size is considered. We show that the flux of the vortex serves as a gate for the strictly forward propagation of particles with short, as compared to the transverse size of the vortex, wavelengths; this effect is the same for a penetrable vortex as for an impenetrable one. A possibility for the experimental detection of the scattering Aharonov–Bohm effect is discussed.

THE AHARONOV-BOHM EFFECT IN SCATTERING OF QUASICLASSICAL PARTICLES

Yu. A. Sitenko, N.D. Vlasii

Quantum-mechanical scattering of nonrelativistic charged particles by a magnetic vortex of nonzero transverse size is considered. The high-frequency limit of a scattered particle corresponds to the quasiclassical limit, and we show that the scattering Aharonov-Bohm effect persists in the quasiclassical limit owing to the Fraunhofer diffraction in the forward direction. Therefore, the flux of a magnetic vortex serves as a gate for the propagation of quasiclassical particles moving orthogonally to the vortex. The issue of the experimental detection of the Fraunhofer diffraction peak and the scattering Aharonov-Bohm effect is discussed.

Aharonov-Bohm effect as a scattering event

Yakir Aharonov, C. K. Au, E. C. Lerner +1 more

The Aharonov-Bohm effect is reconsidered as a scattering event of an electron by a magnetic field confined in an infinite solenoid of finite radius both in the situation where the solenoid is penetrable as well as impenetrable. We next discuss the validity of the Born approximation for the partial-wave scattering amplitudes and explain why for the cylindrically symmetric $(m=0)$ partial wave the first Born approximation fails in the long-wavelength limit or as the radius of the solenoid shrinks to zero.
