Abstract
The Aharonov-Bohm effect on multiwall carbon nanotubes has been studied under conditions of resistance with decreasing temperature as an inverse power function, which precede strong carrier localization. A periodic contribution with a period of 18 T corresponding to the magnetic flux quantum ħc/e per nanotube cross section has been revealed in the longitudinal magnetoresistance. The result points to the possibility of the ballistic motion of the carriers over the sample perimeter under conditions close to their strong localization in the longitudinal direction.
