Summary

The quantal version of a classical result, concerning the angular momentum of the static e.m. field generated by a charge and a solenoid at rest, allows us to demonstrate the flux quantization in superconductors, avoiding the unjustifiable and improper hypothesis of the single-valuedness of the wave function.

Riassunto

La versione quantistica di un risultato classico riguardante il momento angolare del campo e.m. statico generato da una carica ed un solenoide in quiete, consente di dimostrare che il flusso magnetico «intrappolato» nei superconduttori è quantizzato in multipli interi dihc/(2e), evitando l’ingiustificabile ed impropria ipotesi che la funzione d’onda sia ad un solo valore.

Резюме

Квантовый вариант классического результата, касающегося углового момента статического электромагнитного поля, образованного зарядом и покоящимся солиноидом, позволяет нам продемонстрировать квантование потока в сверхпроводниках, без использования неоправданной и несобственной гипотезы об однозначности волновой функции.
