Quantum Phase of Induced Dipoles Moving in a Magnetic Field

Space-time geometry of quantum dielectrics

“…[16] in the limit of weak fields and, consequently, describes indeed the known non-resonant light forces including the Röntgen interaction [12].…”

“…Similarly, given the current state of the art in atom optics, the idea that light curves the space-time for matter waves is an equivalent formulation of the known light forces, i.e. of the dipole force and of the recently investigated Röntgen interaction [12]. However, one can conceive of significantly enhancing the dielectric properties of matter waves [4] using similar methods as in the spectacular demonstrations of slow light [13].…”

Quantum Effects on an Atom with a Magnetic Quadrupole Moment in a Region with a Time-Dependent Magnetic Field

“…Atoms with an induced electric dipole moment that interacts with electric and magnetic fields have also shown quantum effects associated with geometric quantum phases [3] and the Landau-type quantization [4]. Besides, by dealing with neutral particles with a permanent electric dipole moment that interacts with a magnetic field, it has been shown in Refs.…”

Relativistic Landau quantization for a neutral particle

“…Within the HMW effect, the phase shift is generated by the interaction between an external magnetic field and the electric dipole moment of the neutral particle. Thus, considering the HMW effect, Ribeiro et al [18] have studied the analog of Landau quantization for a neutral particle which possesses a permanent electric dipole moment, and Furtado et al [19] have investigated the Landau quantization for induced electric dipoles, being motivated by the paper of Wei et al [20].…”
