Abstracts

The quantum interference is considered in time-dependent magnetic field that is quantum beats in mesoscopic loop structure. The similarities between this effect and Josephson, scalar Aharonov-Bohm and Aharonov-Casher effects, as well as their differences are treated and a possible application of the effect to the construction of the device, complementary to SQUIDs, is analysed.
