On the Non-Abelian Aharonov Bohm Scattering of Spinless Particles
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Aharonov Bohm scattering for spinless, isospin 1/2, particles interacting through a non-Abelian Chern-Simons field is studied. Starting from the relativistic quantum field theory and using a Coulomb gauge formulation, the one loop renormalization program is implemented. Through the introduction of an intermediary cutoff, separating the regions of high and low integration momentum, the nonrelativistic limit is derived. The next to leading relativistic approximation is also determined. In this approach quantum field theory vacuum polarization effects are automatically incorporated.

Scattering amplitude in the Aharonov-Bohm gauge field.
A general expression for the scattering amplitude of nonrelativistic spinless particles in the Aharonov-Bohm gauge potential is obtained within the time independent formalism. The result is valid also in the backward and forward directions as well as for any choice of the boundary conditions on the wave function at the flux tube position.

متن کاملPerturbative analysis of non-Abelian Aharonov-Bohm scattering.
We perform a perturbative analysis of the nonabelian Aharonov-Bohm problem to one loop in a field theoretic framework, and show the necessity of contact interactions for renormalizability of perturbation theory. Moreover at critical values of the contact interaction strength the theory is finite and preserves classical conformal invariance.

We study the low energy regime of the scattering of two fermionic particles carrying isospin 1/2 and interacting through a non-Abelian Chern-Simons field. We calculate the one-loop scattering amplitude for both the nonrela-tivistic and also for the relativistic theory. In the relativistic case we introduce an intermediate cutoff, separating the regions with low and high loop momenta integration...
متن کاملNon-Abelian Chern-Simons Quantum Mechanics and Non-Abelian Aharonov-Bohm Effect
We construct a classical action for a system of N point-like sources which carry SU(2) non-Abelian charges coupled to non-Abelian Chern-Simons gauge fields, and develop a quantum mechanics for them. Adopting the coherent state quantization and solving the Gauss’ constraint in an appropriately chosen gauge, we obtain a quantum mechanical Hamiltonian given in terms of the Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov c...
متن کاملAnalytical and Numerical Study of the Aharonov–Bohm Effect in 3D and 4D Abelian Higgs Model
We discuss the Aharonov–Bohm effect in three and four dimensional non– compact lattice Abelian Higgs model. We show analytically that this effect leads to the long–range Coulomb interaction of the charged particles, which is confining in three dimensions. The Aharonov–Bohm effect is found in numerical calculations in 3D Abelian Higgs model.
