Noncommutative Correction to the Aharonov-Bohm Scattering: a Field Theory Approach
Abstract We study a noncommutative nonrelativistic theory in 2+1 dimensions of a scalar field coupled to the Chern-Simons field. In the commutative situation this model has been used to simulate the Aharonov-Bohm effect in the field theory context. We verified that, contrarily to the commutative result, the inclusion of a quartic self-interaction of the scalar field is not necessary to secure t...
متن کاملTime-dependent Aharonov-Bohm effect on the noncommutative space
We study the time-dependent Aharonov-Bohm effect on the noncommutative space. Because there is no net Aharonov-Bohm phase shift in the time-dependent case on the commutative space, therefore, a tiny deviation from zero indicates new physics. Based on the Seiberg-Witten map we obtain the gauge invariant and Lorentz covariant Aharonov-Bohm phase shift in general case on noncommutative space. We f...
متن کاملAharonov-Bohm Effect on Noncommutative Plane: A Coherent State Approach
We apply the coherent state approach to study Aharonov-Bohm effect in the field theory context. We verify that, contrarily to the commutative result, the scattering amplitude is ultraviolet finite. However, we have logarithmic singularities as the noncommutative parameter tends to zero. Thus, the inclusion of a quartic self-interaction for the scalar field is necessary to obtain a smooth commut...
متن کاملPhase Space Description of Quantum Mechanics and Non-commutative Geometry: Wigner-Moyal and Bohm in a wider context
In this paper we approach the question of the existence of a x, p phase space in a new way. Rather than abandoning all hope of constructing such a phase-space for quantum phenomena, we take aspects from both the Wigner-Moyal and Bohm approaches and show that although there is no unique phase space we can form ‘shadow’ phase spaces. We then argue that this is a consequence of the noncommutative ...
متن کاملNon-commutative Geometry, the Bohm Interpretation and the Mind-Matter Relationship
It is argued that in order to address the mind/matter relationship, we will have to radically change the conceptual structure normally assumed in physics. Rather than fields and/or particles-in-interaction described in the traditional Cartesian order based a local evolution in spacetime, we need to introduce a more general notion of process described by a non-commutative algebra. This will have...
