Abelian and non-Abelian topological behavior of a neutral spin-1/2 particle in a background magnetic field
B. Zygelman
We present results of a numerical experiment in which a neutral spin-1/2 particle subjected to a static magnetic vortex field passes through a double-slit barrier. We demonstrate t…
The Molecular Aharonov-Bohm effect Redux
B. Zygelman
A solvable molecular collision model that predicts Aharonov-Bohm (AB) like scattering in the adiabatic approximation is introduced. For it, we propagate coupled channel wave packet…
Geometric Phase Atom Optics and Interferometry
Bernard Zygelman
We illustrate how geometric gauge forces and topological phase effects emerge in quantum systems without employing assumptions that rely on adiabaticity. We show how geometric magn…
Geometric Phase Optics
B. Zygelman
We introduce, and propagate wave-packet solutions of, a single qubit system in which geometric gauge forces and phases emerge. We investigate under what conditions non-trivial gaug…
Geometric gauge potentials and forces in low-dimensional scattering systems
B. Zygelman
We introduce and analyze several low-dimensional scattering systems that exhibit geometric phase phenomena. The systems are fully solvable and we compare exact solutions of them wi…
