Chapter

Abstract

This section is meant to be an extension of Chap. 31 on the quantal Berry phases. In particular, we are interested in studying the electromagnetic interaction of particles with a nonzero magnetic moment in D = 2 + 1 dimensions and of translational invariant configurations of (D = 3 + 1)-dimensional charged strings with a nonzero magnetic moment per unit length. The whole discussion is based on our article in Physical Review D44, 1132 (1991).
