Quantum effect of electromagnetic potentials on an internal degree of freedom

Abstract

We describe a new experimental arrangement in which the so-called quantum effect of potentials (known also as the Aharonov-Bohm effect) is "recorded" on an internal degree of freedom.Received 20 February 1979DOI:https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.20.3213©1979 American Physical Society

The Aharonov–Bohm effects: Variations on a subtle theme

Herman Batelaan, Akira Tonomura

The notion, introduced 50 years ago, that electrons could be affected by electromagnetic potentials without coming in contact with actual force fields was received with a skepticism that has spawned a flourishing of experimental tests and expansions of the original idea.

Aharonov-Bohm Effect from the "Hydrodynamical" Viewpoint

Giulio Casati, Italo Guarneri

It is shown that the adoption of the hydrodynamical viewpoint in quantum mechanics provides a way to explain experimental results while giving electromagnetic potentials no more physical significance than they have in classical physics.
