Gauge transformation through an accelerated frame of reference

چکیده
The Schrödinger equation of a charged particle in a uniform electric field can be specified in either a time-independent or a time-dependent gauge. The wavefunction solutions in these two gauges are related by a phase-factor reflecting the gauge symmetry of the problem. In this article we show that the effect of such a gauge transformation connecting the two wave-functions can be mimicked by the effect of two successive extended Galilean transformations connecting the two wavefunction. An extended Galilean transformation connects two reference frames out of which one is accelerating with respect to the other.

Propagation of Dirac wave functions in accelerated frames of reference
The first-order gravity effects of Dirac wave functions are found from the inertial effects in the accelerated frames of reference. Derivations and discussions about Lense-Thirring effect and the gyrogravitational ratio for intrinsic spin are presented. We use coordinate transformations among reference frames to study and understand the Lense-Thirring effect of a scalar particle. For a Dirac pa...
متن کاملOn the Gauge Aspects of Gravityy
We give a short outline, in Sec. 2, of the historical development of the gauge idea as applied to internal (U(1); SU(2); : : :) and external (R 4 ; SO(1; 3); : : :) symmetries and stress the fundamental importance of the corresponding conserved currents. In Sec. 3, experimental results with neutron interferometers in the gravitational eld of the earth, as interpreted by means of the equivalence...
متن کاملQuantum Geometrodynamical Description of the Universe in Different Reference Frames
Several years ago the so-called quantum geometrodynamics in extended phase space was proposed. The main role in this version of quantum geometrodynamics is given to a wave function that carries information about geometry of the Universe as well as about a reference frame in which this geometry is studied. We consider the evolution of a physical object (the Universe) in “physical” subspace of ex...
متن کاملPower Swings Damping Improvement with STATCOM and SMES Based on the Direct Lyapunov Method
In this paper a comprehensive approach is presented to improve power swings damping based on direct Lyapunov method. The approach combines superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) system with static synchronous compensator (STATCOM). Considering the energy absorption/injection ability of SMES, in transient states the combination exchanges both active and reactive powers with power system....
متن کاملE↵ective theory of Fermi pockets in fluctuating antiferromagnets
Abstract We describe fluctuating two-dimensional metallic antiferromagnets by transforming to a rotating reference frame in which the electron spin polarization is measured by its projections along the local antiferromagnetic order. This leads to a gauge-theoretic description of an ‘algebraic charge liquid’ involving spinless fermions and a spin S = 1/2 complex scalar. We propose a phenomenolog...
