چکیده
We show that there is an analogous Aharonov-Casher topological effect on a neutral particle with electric dipole moment interacting with a magnetic field produced by magnetic monopoles.

Electric Dipole Moment of Magnetic Monopole
The electric dipole moment of a magnetic monopole with spin is studied in the N = 2 supersymmetric gauge theory. Dipole moments of electric charge distributions, as well as dipole moments due to magnetic currents, are calculated. The contribution of the charge distribution of the fermion to the gyroelectric ratio is expressed in terms of ζ(3).
متن کاملTopological Phases and Their Duality in Electromagnetic and Gravitational Fields
The duality found by Aharonov and Casher for topological phases in the electromagnetic field is generalized to an arbitrary linear interaction. This provides a heuristic principle for obtaining a new solution of the field equations from a known solution. This is applied to the general relativistic Sagnac phase shift due to the gravitational field in the interference of mass or energy around a l...
متن کاملClassical and quantum interaction of the dipole
A unified and fully relativistic treatment of the interaction of the electric and magnetic dipole moments of a particle with the electromagnetic field is given. New forces on the particle due to the combined effect of electric and magnetic dipoles are obtained. Several new experiments are proposed, which include observation of topological phase shifts.
متن کاملClassical Electromagnetic Interaction of a Point Charge and a Magnetic Moment: Considerations Related to the AharonovBohm Phase Shift
A fundamentally new understanding of the classical electromagnetic interaction of a point charge and a magnetic dipole moment through order v/c is suggested. This relativistic analysis connects together hidden momentum in magnets, Solem’s strange polarization of the classical hydrogen atom, and the Aharonov-Bohm phase shift. First we review the predictions following from the traditional particl...
متن کاملMonopoles, Antimonopoles and Vortex Rings
Introduction Defects, classical solutions of spontaneously broken gauge theories, where the Higgs field vanishes at points, lines or surfaces, are relevant in particle physics and cosmology. Monopoles, for instance, represent zero-dimensional defects, vortex solutions or strings are associated with one-dimensional defects, domain walls represent two-dimensional defects. Here we present new clas...
