Feynman’s Relativistic Electrodynamics Paradox and the Aharonov-Bohm Effect
An analysis is done of a relativistic paradox posed in the Feynman Lectures of Physics involving two interacting charges. The physical system presented is compared with similar systems that also lead to relativistic paradoxes. The momentum conservation problem for these systems is presented. The relation between the presented analysis and the ongoing debates on momentum conservation in the Ahar...
متن کاملRelativistic Scalar Aharonov-Bohm Scattering
We discuss the scattering of relativistic spin zero particles by an infinitely long and arbitrarily thin solenoid. The exact solution of the first-quantized problem can be obtained as a mimic of the nonrelativistic case, either in the original Aharonov-Bohm way or by using the Berry’s magnetization scheme. The perturbative treatment is developed in the Feshbach-Villars two-component formalism f...
متن کاملRelativistic Corrections to the Aharonov-Bohm Scattering
We determine the |p|/m expansion of the two body scattering amplitude of the quantum theory of a Chern-Simons field minimally coupled to a scalar field with quartic self-interaction. It is shown that the existence of a critical value of the self-interaction parameter for which the 2-particle amplitude reduces to the Aharonov-Bohm one is restricted to the leading, nonrelativistic, order. The sub...
متن کاملThe Aharonov - Bohm effect for an exciton
We study theoretically the exciton absorption on a ring shreded by a magnetic flux. For the case when the attraction between electron and hole is short-ranged we get an exact solution of the problem. We demonstrate that, despite the electrical neutrality of the exciton, both the spectral position of the exciton peak in the absorption, and the corresponding oscillator strength oscillate with mag...
متن کاملDispersionless forces and the Aharonov-Bohm effect
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 reevaluation of the experimental demonstration that forces are absent in the AB physical system is given, including previously unpublished data. It is shown th...
