“…The Landau configuration involves a constant magnetic field in a fixed direction (Bliokh and Nori, 2012a;Gallatin and McMorran, 2012;Greenshields et al, 2012;Landau and Lifshitz, 1977), whilst the AharanovBohm configuration can involve a single line of flux (Bliokh and Nori, 2012a). The vortex propagation direction may be transverse (Gallatin and McMorran, 2012), parallel (Bliokh et al, 2012;Greenshields et al, 2012) to the direction of the field or in an arbitrary orientation (Greenshields et al, 2014), and the interaction between the magnetic moment with the external field leads to interesting dynamics, as we now explain.…”
