Torsion Gravity Effects on Charged-Particles and Neutron Interferometers
C. Sivaram, L. C. Garcia de Andrade
Torsion gravitational effects in the quantum interference of charged particles are investigated. The influence of axial torsion in the Schiff-Banhill effect (SB) inside a metallic…

Superconducting Cosmic String with Propagating Torsion
C. N. Ferreira, H. J. Mosquera-Cuesta, L. C. Garcia de Andrade
We show that it is possible to construct a consistent model describing a current-carrying cosmic string endowed with torsion. The torsion contribution to the gravitational force an…

Torsion modified Plasma Screening in Astrophysics
C. Sivaram, L. C. Garcia de Andrade
The torsion modified Maxwell-Proca equations when applied to describe a plasma is shown to lead to a correction to the Debye screening length.For hot new born neutron stars the tor…
