Relativistic Landau Levels in the Rotating Cosmic String Spacetime
In the spacetime induced by a rotating cosmic string we compute the energy
levels of a massive spinless particle coupled covariantly to a homogeneous
magnetic field parallel to the string. Afterwards, we consider the addition of
a scalar potential with a Coulomb-type and a linear confining term and
completely solve the Klein-Gordon equations for each configuration. Finally,
assuming rigid-wall boundary conditions, we find the Landau levels when the
linear defect is itself magnetized. Remarkably, our analysis reveals that the
Landau quantization occurs even in the absence of gauge fields provided the
string is endowed with spin.Comment: Writing and grammar revised. References added. 14 pages, no figures.
