Effects of rotation on a magnetic quadrupole moment system around a cylindrical cavity

Abstract

We analyze the interaction of the magnetic quadrupole moment of a neutral particle with magnetic and electric fields around a cylindrical cavity in a rotating reference frame. In contrast to the energy levels yielded by a Coulomb-type potential that stems from the interaction of the magnetic quadrupole moment with a nonuniform magnetic field, we show that the effects of rotation break the degeneracy of the energy levels. Moreover, we show that the effects of rotation can gives rise to an Aharonov-Bohm-type effect. Further, we discuss the appearance of persistent currents and the revival time.
