Significance of Electromagnetic Potentials in the Quantum Theory de Aharonov, Y. [Yakir ] ; Bohm, D. [ David ] - 1959

Lancaster, PA and New York, NY: American Physical Society / American Institute of Physics, 1959. First Edition. Wraps. Near Fine. First Edition. 485-764 pages. Small 4to. Original publisher's blue/green printed wraps. Entire number offered. Spine panel browning, wrapper edges darker than centers, light spotting to the textblock edges. Top corner lightly bumped.

Perhaps the most interesting article in this issue is 'Significance of Electromagnetic Potentials in the Quantum Theory.' It highlights the Aharonov-Bohm effect, actually predicted nearly 10 years earlier by Ehrenberg and Siday, but here rediscovered. New Scientist named this effect as one of the 'seven wonders of the quantum world.'.
