We describe an experimental configuration suitable for observing the geometric phase of Aharonov and Casher in atomic systems. Using this we have been able to show experimentally that the Aharonov-Casher phase is both independent of velocity and proportional to an electric field and we have verified the predicted size of the effect with an accuracy of 2%.

We describe a new experimental configuration suitable for observing the topological phase of Aharonov and Casher in atomic systems. Using this we have been able to show experimentally that the Aharonov-Casher phase is both independent of velocity and proportional to electric field and we have verified the predicted size of the effect with an accuracy of 4%.
