The quantum effects of electromagnetic fluxes
Abstract
This paper is a review of the problem of the observable action of enclosed electromagnetic fluxes on the quantum-mechanical state of charged particles, known as the Aharonov-Bohm effect. The authors first describe the quantum effects of the fluxes in the quasiclassical approximation, and discuss their relation with basic quantum-mechanical principles. Then they examine the influence of modeling assumptions on the predicted effects of enclosed fluxes. They analyze the experiments demonstrating the reality of the quantum effects of electromagnetic and gravitational fluxes, and finally discuss the physical significance of these quantum effects, comparing the current interpretation, based on the concept of a nonintegrable phase factor, with alternative approaches.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
