Landau levels analog to electric dipole

Abstract: In this letter we study the quantum dyamics of a neutral particle in the presence of an external magnetic field. We demonstrate in a specific field-dipole configuration that we have a quantization similar to the Landau Levels. We investigate this quantization motivated by the recent analysis of Landau-Aharonov-Casher(LAC) quantization of Ericsson and Sjöqvist [Phys Rev. A 65 013607 (2001)]. The energy eigenfuction and eigenvalues are obtained.

“…We find that Landau like levels of the Anandan system are invariant and the levels between the AC system and the HMW system are interchanged each other under Maxwell dual transformations on the three spaces. We think the levels of the AC system and the HMW system are similar under the same revolution direction which is different from the point of Ribeiro et al [14] and analyze their mistake from the angles of revolution direction and Maxwell duality. Some difference between commutative space and NC situation is also discussed from the supersysmmetry transformation.…”

“…Following these steps, Ribeiro et al made use of the HMW interaction to generate another analog of Landau quantization. [14] have also obtained noncommutative Landau like quantization with the AC interaction and the HMW interaction respectively. [42] In this letter, we will use the Anandan interaction for another analog of Landau quantization in the non-relativistic limit on commutative space (C), NC space and NC phase space.…”

“…In the same way, the analog of Landau quantization for neutral particles possessing a nonzero electric dipole moment can be obtained by use of the He-McKellar-Wilkens effect [16].…”

“…In Ref. [24][25][26], it has been shown that the Landau-HeMcKellar-Wilkens quantization [27][28][29] can be obtained without assuming the existence of magnetic charges. Recently, bound states for a neutral particle with permanent magnetic dipole moment analogous to a quantum dot have been obtained via the noninertial effects of the FermiWalker reference frame [30][31][32].…”
