Aharonov is known for monumental contributions to theoretical physics: specifically, for the Aharonov-Bohm and Aharonov-Casher effects, for pioneering work in measurement theory, the nature of quantum correlations, superselection rules, and geometric phases, and for his deep insights into the covariant description of quantum mechanics. |
