The Topological AC and HMW Effects , and the Dual Current in 2 + 1 Dimensions

چکیده
We study the Aharonov-Casher (AC) effect and the related He-McKellarWilkens (HMW) effect in 2 + 1 dimensions. In this restricted space these effects are the result of the interaction of the electromagnetic field tensor with the dual of a current. Transferring the dual operation from the current to the field tensor shows that this interaction may be reinterpreted as due to the interaction of an effective vector potential and a current, and the AC and HMW effects follow immediately. A general proof of this for particles with an arbitrary spin is provided. The restriction to 2 + 1 dimensions, with this interpretation, provides a unified way of treating the AC and HMW effects for an arbitrary spin. Perhaps more interestingly the treatment shows that a spin-0 particle can show AC and HMW effects, although it has no magnetic or electric dipole moment in

Invariant elements in the dual Steenrod algebra
In this paper, we investigate the invariant elements of the dual mod $p$ Steenrod subalgebra ${mathcal{A}_p}^*$ under the conjugation map $chi$ and give bounds on the dimensions of $(chi-1)({mathcal{A}_p}^*)_d$, where $({mathcal{A}_p}^*)_d$ is the dimension of ${mathcal{A}_p}^*$ in degree $d$.
متن کاملSolid State Analog for He - McKellar - Wilkens Quantum Phase
– In this letter we investigate the quantum dynamics of a quasiparticle in the presence of a charged screw dislocation submitted to a uniform magnetic field. Analysing the quantum scattering for this quasiparticle we observed the appearance of a topological quantum phase in the solution and demonstrate that this phenomenon is the solid state analog of the He-McKeller-Wilkens effect. Aharonov an...

In this paper, a method is introduced which reduces the harmonicdistortion of the inverter output current, connecting the fuelcell to the AC load. Using FUZZY LOGIC-PI (FLPI), the controllingmethod is engaged in optimum tuning of the PI controllercoefficients of this converter. This converter has only one DC-ACboost inverter and simultaneously has the task of increasingvoltage level and generat...
متن کاملDesign and Simulation of a New DC Power Supply Based on Dual Bridge Matrix Converter
A conventional high power DC power supply systems consist of a three-phase diode rectifier followed by a high frequency converter to supply loads at regulated DC voltage. These rectifiers draw significant harmonic currents from the utility, resulting in poor input power factor. In this paper, a DC power supply based on dual-bridge matrix converter (DBMC) with reduced number of switches is p...
