Aharonov-Bohm effect and high-momenta inverse scattering for the Klein-Gordon equation (Q331478)

From the text: We analyze spin-0 relativistic scattering of charged particles propagating in the exterior, \(\Lambda \subset \mathbb R^3\), of a compact obstacle \(K\subset \mathbb R^3\). The connected components of the obstacle are handlebodies. In particular, they can be the union of a finite number of bodies diffeomorphic to tori or to balls. Some of them can be patched through the boundary. We assume that the particle interacts with a short-range magnetic field \(B\) and a short-range electric potential \(A_0\), both of them defined in \(\Lambda\). The obstacle is shielded and contains an inaccessible magnetic field. The only information, from the magnetic field inside the obstacle, we may have access to is through circulations of the magnetic potential around the handles of the obstacle. The aim of this paper is proving that the electromagnetic field can be reconstructed from the high-momenta limit of the scattering operator, as well as some information from the circulations of the magnetic potentials around the handles of the obstacle. The latter is the Aharonov-Bohm effect, a purely quantum phenomenon.
