Loop variables and gravitational Berry's quantum phase in the space-time of a rotating massive body
Abstract
In this paper we compute the holonomies along curves in the gravitational field of a slowly rotating massive body. We use our results to study the gravitational analogue of Aharanov-Bohm effect in this space-time. We also investigate the behaviour of a scalar quantum particle in this space-time and determine Berry's quantum phase acquired by this particle when transported along a closed curve surrounding the body.
