Spavieri Effect in Noncommutative Space

Abstract

Spavieri effect in noncommutative space is studied by applying two different methods. One is the Bopp shift and the other is the Seiberg-Witten map. We show that up to the first order of the noncommutative parameter, both methods lead to the same conclusion that the spatial noncommutativity will not lead to corrections to Spavieri effect although the mechanisms of these two methods are very different. Our studies also indicate that the equivalence between Spavieri and Aharonov-Bohm effects is still held in noncommutative space.
