Adiabatic geometric phases in hydrogenlike atoms

Adiabatic geometric phases in hydrogenlike atoms

We examine the effect of spin-orbit coupling on geometric phases in hydrogenlike atoms exposed to a slowly varying magnetic field. The marginal geometric phases associated with the orbital angular momentum and the intrinsic spin fulfill a sum rule that explicitly relates them to the corresponding geometric phase of the whole …
