Charges, Monopoles and Duality Relations
A charge-monopole theory is derived from simple and self-evident postulates.
Charges and monopoles take an analogous theoretical structure. It is proved
that charges interact with free waves emitted from monopoles but not with the
corresponding velocity fields. Analogous relations hold for monopole equations
of motion. The system's equations of motion can be derived from a regular
Lagrangian function.Comment: 17 pages + 3 figures
Correspondences and Quantum Description of Aharonov-Bohm and Aharonov-Casher Effects
We establish systematic consolidation of the Aharonov-Bohm and
Aharonov-Casher effects including their scalar counterparts. Their formal
correspondences in acquiring topological phases are revealed on the basis of
the gauge symmetry in non-simply connected spaces and the adiabatic condition
for the state of magnetic dipoles. In addition, investigation of basic two-body
interactions between an electric charge and a magnetic dipole clarifies their
appropriate relative motions and discloses physical interrelations between the
effects. Based on the two-body interaction, we also construct an exact
microscopic description of the Aharonov-Bohm effect, where all the elements are
treated on equal footing, i.e., magnetic dipoles are described
quantum-mechanically and electromagnetic fields are quantized. This microscopic
analysis not only confirms the conventional (semiclassical) results and the
topological nature but also allows one to explore the fluctuation effects due
to the precession of the magnetic dipoles with the adiabatic condition relaxed
Megascopic Quantum Phenomena. A Critical Study of Physical Interpretations
A megascopic revalidation is offered providing responses and resolutions of
current inconsistencies and existing contradictions in present-day quantum
theory. As the core of this study we present an independent proof of the
Goldstone theorem for a quantum field formulation of molecules and solids.
Along with phonons two types of new quasiparticles appear: rotons and
translons. In full analogy with Lorentz covariance, combining space and time
coordinates, a new covariance is necessary, binding together the internal and
external degrees of freedom, without explicitly separating the centre-of-mass,
which normally applies in both classical and quantum formulations. The
generally accepted view regarding the lack of a simple correspondence between
the Goldstone modes and broken symmetries, has significant consequences: an
ambiguous BCS theory as well as a subsequent Higgs mechanism. The application
of the archetype of the classical spontaneous symmetry breaking, i.e. the
Mexican hat, as compared to standard quantum relations, i.e. the Jahn-Teller
effect, superconductivity or the Higgs mechanism, becomes a disparity. In
short, symmetry broken states have a microscopic causal origin, but transitions
between them have a teleological component. The different treatments of the
problem of the centre of gravity in quantum mechanics and in field theories
imply a second type of Bohr complementarity on the many-body level opening the
door for megascopic representations of all basic microscopic quantum axioms
with further readings for teleonomic megascopic quantum phenomena, which have
no microscopic rationale: isomeric transitions, Jahn-Teller effect, chemical
reactions, Einstein-de Haas effect, superconductivity-superfluidity, and
brittle fracture.Comment: 117 pages, 17 sections, final revised version from 20 May 2019 but
