Abstract: An experiment to observe the Aharonov-Bohm effect is discussed. A solenoid which consists of a large number of point magnetic dipoles is considered as the source of a vector potential, which acts on a charged particle, and such potential has an electromagnetic field of zero strength in the region of a nonzero vector potential. A detailed microscopic analysis of the change in the quantum state phase of the entire system, namely, a particle and a set of dipoles, reveals the origin of the apparent nonlocality of the action of the vector potential, and shows the locality of the phase change mechanism. An analysis of an experiment with a solenoid shielded by a superconducting shell is given.

Electron Wave Spin in Excited States [6.358214877782412]
The wave spin of an electron can be fully characterized by the current density calculated from the exact four-spinor solution of the Dirac equation. The interaction of the current with a magnetic potential produces a finer structure of anomalous Zeeman splitting.

Electrodynamic Aharonov-Bohm effect [0.0]
We propose an electrodynamic Aharonov-Bohm scheme where a nonzero AB phase difference appears even if the interferometer paths do not enclose a magnetic flux. In the proposal, the current in a solenoid outside the interferometer varies in time while the quantum particle is in a superposition state inside two Faraday cages.

Dispersive readout of molecular spin qudits [68.8204255655161]
We study the physics of a magnetic molecule described by a "giant" spin with multiple $d > 2$ spin states. We derive an expression for the output modes in the dispersive regime of operation. We find that the measurement of the cavity transmission allows to uniquely determine the spin state of the qudits.

Detectable Signature of Quantum Friction on a Sliding Particle in Vacuum [58.720142291102135]
We show traces of quantum friction in the degradation of the quantum coherence of a particle. We propose to use the accumulated geometric phase acquired by a particle as a quantum friction sensor. The experimentally viable scheme presented can spark renewed optimism for the detection of non-contact friction.

Enhanced decoherence for a neutral particle sliding on a metallic surface in vacuum [68.8204255655161]
We show that non-contact friction enhances the decoherence of the moving atom. We suggest that measuring decoherence times through velocity dependence of coherences could indirectly demonstrate the existence of quantum friction.

Three Faces of the Aharonov-Bohm Phase [0.0]
The Aharonov-Bohm (AB) phase that makes its entry in the above bizarre effect is also deployed to derive the observed magnetic flux quantisation in superconductors. The Dirac result implies that the existence of a single magnetic monopole anywhere in the universe would entail quantisation of the product of a particle's electric charge and the monopole's magnetic charge.

Quantum coherent spin-electric control in a molecular nanomagnet at clock transitions [57.50861918173065]
Electrical control of spins at the nanoscale offers architectural advantages in spintronics. Recent demonstrations of electric-field (E-field) sensitivities in molecular spin materials are tantalising. E-field sensitivities reported so far are rather weak, prompting the question of how to design molecules with stronger spin-electric couplings.

On an electrodynamic origin of quantum fluctuations [0.0]
We show that violent fluctuations are experienced by an electromagnetic charged extended particle when it is perturbed from its rest state. We derive a series expansion of the self-potential, which in addition to rest and kinetic energy, gives rise to a new contribution that shares features with the quantum potential.
