Using Kaluza-Klein theory we study the quantum mechanics of a scalar particle in the background of a chiral cosmic string and of a magnetic cosmic string. We show that the wave functions and the energy spectra associated with the particle depend on the global features of those space–times. These dependences represent the analogs of the well-known Aharonov–Bohm effect. This effect appears as the sum of two contributions, one of gravitational origin and the other of electromagnetic origin.

Based on the Kaluza-Klein theory, we study the Aharonov-Bohm effect for bound states for a relativistic scalar particle subject to a Coulomb-type potential. We introduce this scalar potential as a modification of the mass term of the Klein-Gordon equation, and a magnetic flux through the line element of the Minkowski spacetime in five dimensions. Then, we obtain the relativistic bound states solutions and calculate the persistent currents.

The effects of uniform rotation on a relativistic scalar particle that interacts with a Cornell-type potential in background space–time described by the Kaluza–Klein theory are analyzed and the gravitational analogue of the Aharonov–Bohm effect is observed. Furthermore, linear confinement of a relativistic scalar particle was also discussed. We see a coupling between the angular velocity of the rotating frame [Formula: see text] and the angular momentum eigenvalue [Formula: see text] which shows the Sagnac-type effect.

Through the Kaluza–Klein theory, we investigate the quantum dynamics of a Klein–Gordon particle under the Aharonov–Bohm effect for bound states, where it is subject to the linear and Coulomb-type central potentials inserted in the Klein–Gordon equation by modification of the mass term. Then, we determine analytically solutions of bound states and the energy profile of the scalar particle in this background.

We solve a generalized Klein-Gordon oscillator (KGO) in the presence of a uniform magnetic field including quantum flux under the effects of a scalar and vector potentials of Coulomb-types in the static cosmic string space-time. We obtain the energy and corresponding eigenfunctions, and analyze a relativistic analogue of the Aharonov-Bohm effect for bound states.

In this paper, we solve a generalized Klein-Gordon oscillator in the cosmic string space-time with a scalar potential of Cornell-type within the Kaluza-Klein theory and obtain the relativistic energy eigenvalues and eigenfunctions. We extend this analysis by replacing the Cornell-type with Coulomb-type potential in the magnetic cosmic string space-time and analyze a relativistic analogue of the Aharonov-Bohm effect for bound states.

AbstractIn this paper, we solve generalized KG-oscillator interacts with a uniform magnetic field in five-dimensional space-time background produced by topological defects under a linear confining potential using the Kaluza–Klein theory. We solve this equation and analyze an analogue of the Aharonov–Bohm effect for bound states. We observe that the energy level for each radial mode depend on the global parameters characterizing the space-time, the confining potential, and the magnetic field which shows a quantum effect.

We investigate the quantum scattering of an electron by a topological defect called dispiration, with an externally applied magnetic field along its axis. The Aharonov–Bohm effect for bound states is analyzed and it is demonstrated that the wave function and the energy spectra associated with the particle depend on the features of the dispiration as well as on the magnetic flux. We also calculate Berry's phase associated to the dynamics of electrons in this background.

In this paper, we study interactions of a scalar particle with electromagnetic potential in the background space-time generated by a cosmic string with a space-like dislocation. We solve the Klein-Gordon oscillator in the presence of external fields including an internal magnetic flux field and analyze the analogue effect to the Aharonov-Bohm effect for bound states. We extend this analysis subject to a Cornell-type scalar potential and observe the effects on the relativistic energy eigenvalue and eigenfunction.

In this paper, we study the relativistic quantum dynamics of spin-0 scalar charged particles with a magnetic quantum flux produced by topological defects in a rotating cosmic string space–time.
