Newtonian Adiabatics Unified
Alfred Scharff Goldhaber
Newtonian adiabatics is the consistent truncation of the adiabatic approximation to second order in small velocities. To be complete it must unify two hitherto disjoint intellectua…
An Elementary Aharonov-Bohm System in Three Space Dimensions: Quantum Attraction With No Classical Force
Alfred Scharff Goldhaber, Ryan Requist
As a consequence of the Aharonov-Bohm effect, there is a quantum-induced attraction between a charged particle and a rigid, impenetrable hoop made from an arbitrarily thin tube con…
Quantum corrections to the mass and central charge of solitons in 1+1 dimensions
A. S. Goldhaber, A. Rebhan, P. van Nieuwenhuizen +1
We first discuss how the longstanding confusion in the literature concerning one-loop quantum corrections to 1+1 dimensional solitons has finally been resolved. Then we use 't Hoof…
Fractional Quantum Hall Layer As A Magical Electromagnetic Medium
Alfred Scharff Goldhaber
At a surface between electromagnetic media the Maxwell equations are consistent with either the usual boundary conditions, or exactly one alternative: continuity of E(perpendicular…
First Are Last Fractional-Charge Solitons
Alfred S. Goldhaber
Jackiw and Rebbi found two types of intrinsically stable or `fundamental' soliton (kinks in 1+1 D and magnetic monopoles in 3+1 D) which can carry pieces of elementary-particle cha…
Hairs on the Unicorn: Fine Structure of Monopoles and Other Solitons
Alfred S. Goldhaber
Intrinsically stable or `fundamental' solitons may be decorated with conserved charges which are pieces of those carried by elementary particles in the same medium. These `hairs' a…
